Not heard anything re another FR plane being based at BOH for a while, but as an uniformed guess, the work to increase the apron from 4 stands to 6 is progressing pretty quickly so you would assume someone somewhere is expecting more planes to be based fairly soon as the 08/09 winter program only needs 4 concurrent stands max.
With regards to the new banking along the main road, nice to see it channeled all the rain from the weekend directly onto the road creating several dodgy puddles, especially at the height of the storm in the early hours of Sunday morning....
