The maintenance staff have been informed I believe and have been offered work else where in TNT. (Great if you have a family on Teesside).
The trucking side has overgrown the hangar and parking area so no problem there.

On the subject of cut pack there is now only three based calibrators and often only five DA-20s instead of the previous seven.

Hugh Lang always seemed to have a master plan but answers on a postcard as to what it was.
I believe our TNT usually takes 3-4 cans and that we cannot take anymore because the flight goes to Liege via Hannover, so the other half of the plane is reserved for their needs.

Yes the Flight Precision Beech 200s have dropped to 3, but there's still 7 FA20s based with FRA, I visit the airport on an almost weekly basis and if they're not out flying, there's always that many parked.
