Was out on CO77 this morning. Great flight (as ever), made better by being up front. And early landing.
The Crew seemed genuinely sad that Bristol is ending, and as bewildered as we are. I had a good chat with a couple of them, and they were wondering if the intermittent schedule over the winter had done more harm than good. From an operational point of view, apparently they have to be taken over to LHR to be got home again?
One of the crew was stocking up on butter from the West Country!
