Nope its all good Nigel, Obviously read the wrong sheets lol.
However, I do wonder if PIK is going to upgrade the equipment as its certainly put itself forward to be an alternate for BA, so, must have been on the basis the equipment is sourced?
Anyway, hopefully clears things up. Obviously things will change in the future, especially with the runway extension that BHX be a priority alternate for BA, I was just trying to point out that as it stands at the moment, its not on the 'priority' list.
On to the Publicity tour, hopefully BA will confirm it all soon. They are quite proud of the A380 and keeping quite tight lipped until plans are confirmed, so the news is likely to come from forums groups of the airports in question where they are less tight lipped about visits than from BA themselves.
The B787 will also be doing a similar tour, but will likely just be to BA stations, especially those the A380 cannot get to.
