FR Liverpool & Eastern

Well pax numbers on the first FR flight are as follows

LPL-ABZ 69
ABZ-LPL 62

Not bad in my opinion for the maiden flight of the route.

Also full emergency at ABZ today with Easterns J32.

It was heading to wick and landing gear wouldn't fully extend, so manually lowered. as was touching down at wick nose wheel collapses, so the pilot pulls nose up and takes off again. Decides to head back to ABZ, but unknown to the crew. wick ATC tells them bits of propeller and landing gear on runway. Full emergency at ABZ A/C manages to land safely with 3 pAX on board.

This is how I heard it at work
