Hi there folks yep summer of 99 DEF saw the A320 used to operate 4 days a week i think it was. Wednesday mornings that summer were really busy for BY. 3 757s and the A320 plus FCL (my beloved colours) and VZ,DP plus all the schelduled stuff.
Did see a Santo Domingo BY 767 200 in i think it was 97 remember loads of **** with bags mixed in all the ULDs and a full bag id was required. I think it was a SDQ - BRS/MAN but not sure.
FCA success at BRS is not suprising due to being established for a long time. Plus took loads of seats and a few of the old slots that JMC/TCX had.
Certainly miss BY old lady many very happy memorys of driving to work along the A38 and seeing the 757 sat on echo 2 in the first light of the morning. Really miss the old terminal atmosphere completly changed after the move into the new one.
I believe from a few people that pass through from time to time that its not as personal as it was before its a shame.
Anyhow take care peeps.
