Yep..It's Coming...!!

I can confirm that there is a Flyglobespan engineering team in New Zealand this week to confirm delivery status of the B767-300.

I think this rumour of it's "non-arrival" eminated from engineers at Glasgow due to the fact they hadn't been briefed on issues other than station line maintenance at Glasgow.
I understand that the plans are in place for phased maintenance of the B767 at SFB - due to the increased down time of the A/c at SFB as opposed to Glasgow.
In another twist - the Training Manager and force behind the introduction of the B767 is non other that one of the most respected and capable individuals in UK aviation management - formerly chief pilot of a certain "air touring company" located in Manchester.

Sorry to quash the negative rumours re: Flyglobespan B767 - but it is on it's way...more to follow....watch this space..!!!
