Q400 update

Q400's

G-FLBJ which was delivered to BHX last week and rumoured to be going to South Africa has entered service today, already operating BHX-EDI-BHX-EGC and I believe it does EGC-EXT next.

G-FLBH has not entered service and just does tours of the airfield at BHX, currently it is reported to be on the 70's.

G-JECU last flight was 17/7, I think it went BHX-EXT and per one site is on a check - is this a pre-sale check, as again this in another one rumoured to be going? G-INFO states "export of C of A" received 11/07/2011 and expected processing date 29/07/2011, which I presume answers my question?

G-JECU SOU based and operating.

G-FLBG is also BHX based and operating La Rochelle at present.

G-FLBF has also been through BHX today.

What is the actual date that the last of the six is expected to go and
is this dependant on 175 deliveries?

As I mentioned on Newquay thread the first week in November requires about
59-61 aircraft operating depending on the time and day with 69 aircraft in
the fleet subject to six Q400 sales and four 175 deliveries.

BTW, cracking BHX schedule day (I know it should be considering the date)
but that has not always been the case in the past, with even the spare
195 working as well.
