Let's try to get it nearly right as I know it. EZY DO have pilots based in Scotland, but as a result of earlier plans to open Scottish bases. This did not come off but EZY honoured the pilots contracts who were recruited to the planned bases and kept them officially Scotland based, but at the moment they fly out of LTN and LPL, which is also by the way a UK base. The aircraft at the moment just night stop there, but in the near future, a small number of crew are planned to be based at GLA, EDI, LGW and BFS. The AMS base is on hold for the moment. Aircraft night stop at BFS, EDI, and GLA but not at the moment LGW, but as numbers increase at LTN and LPL it is hoped to 'base' aircraft at these places, but serviceing will still be done at LTN and LPL. The first -700 is now based in LPL and flies its first sectors today, I think there are 6 or 7 737s based in LPL. Hope this helps to set the record straight.
