fredtheanorak and Atlantic
One ATR 42 is based Jersey, normally it is G-DRFC
The only time we have had a differant aircraft to operate the Stansted was over the world cup period when an Highlands Jetstream was based in Jersey for a little over a weekor so.
The story of the ATR moving back north looks like it has been misunderstood.
The Metro was due to come to Jersey a couple of weeks ago to operate a weekend charter to St Nazaire, due to unservicabilty of this aircraft, Jersey had a second ATR and after the charter i understand it went to Guernsey for a check of some kind and fitted well into the charter.
Things do get twisted as they pass through rumour control and sometimes people get it wrong big time.
