Hey BHD2BFS, yeah the airbridges were neat, one was designated to BA's super shuttle London Heathrow route. Second is where gate 18 (approx 18 location if memory serves me rightly) and it was designated to British Midland and the 3 is the existing one I think!
So on a good day a 757 BA on one a BD 734 or DC9!! I have memories of KLM from AMS using one.
When BA pulled the route in 2001 and then in a later season Bmi moved all to BHD, the place was used mainly by LOCOs Go, Easyjet , and they didnt want the jetties. Quite a shame..
You brought back some memories. And I am remembering how far BFS has come in a short space of time. in the mid 1990s the scheduled routes were only to a selection of GB destination and 2 on the continent.
In the 90s there were so many different types
BA - Bac1-11s, ATPs, HS748, 757, 737, 320, L10, J41,
BD - F70, DC9, 733, 734,735, 319, 320, 321, ATP, EMB
DA - used Bac1-11s, 737s and HS748s!
BY - 73S and 757 to LTN
KL to AMS
and SN to BRU I think....!
