Monarch to Lease-in Temporary Equipment
The news that Monarch are to lease-in an ex-BA 757 came from MON Luton itself. The aircraft - apparently - is scheduled idle for the next 13 weeks awaiting transfer to Israel for fit-out as DHL Cargo machine.
MON will use on lesser density routes, thus keeping the sardine machines for the Palma's, etc.
The a/c in question operated strictly BA UK Shuttle services, and thus is not equipped with the leather VGS.
