COKEMAN. What do you mean that 50% of EI aircraft are manned by Dublin base crew. Whether that's pilots or cabin crew it is way off. There is approx 1250 CC based in DUB, 150 based in ORK, 170 based in SNN, 45/50 based in LGW and 40 based in BFS. Approx 500 pilots based in DUB. 15 based in ORK, zero based in SNN, not sure about BFS and LGW pilot numbers but I can assure you that about 75-80% of aircraft are handled and operating ex DUB. There is one A330 based in SNN, 4 A320's based in ORK, 3 soon to be 2 based in BFS and 3 soon to be 8 based in LGW. the rest of the entire EI fleet is based in DUB (8 soon to be 7 A330's and about 40 A320's) and they are mostly operated by Dublin based pilots and cabin crew.
