My first post here, I'm also from the East Midlands.
I have mixed feelings about this set-up myself.
From a spotters/photographers perspective, it is nice news I suppose, I certainly enjoyed seeing SE-RDH (SX-BSW) at EMA last year, aswell as TF-JXC.
I am too suprised how this Aircraft has managed to fly some other place than EMA for the Winter, then get itself a new contract and come back to EMA for Summer 2006. This new UKJet operation seems very similar to Air Scandic from last year, which caused many delays and must have annoyed many passengers. If passengers re-book again after last year, it is quite weird to think they could be on the same Aircraft they were on last year!

Yep,
SE-RDH has been operating for Aero Asia International over the winter it appears.
I am sure there are going to be a few people at EMA who are going to be a little disgruntled by this news. Heres hoping for smoother flights than last year.
Oh, and does anyone have a website for this Airline by any chance?
