I spent my first year with KLMuk at LBA on the Fokker 50, this was 6 years ago.
It used to be the best kept secret in the company, very friendly atmosphere, base partys, fun flying (plenty of visuals), and plenty of X-winds !

Expect to spend half of the winter months in a taxi to Teeside where the a/c would have diverted due LBA being fogged out most of the time (its 630' asl), although the FK50's are CAT 2 nowdays should improve things.

LBA crews used to also operate the Teeseide - AMS schedule service as well.

I really enjoyed my time there, still miss it today ...... enjoy !!
