Delays

Now into the 6th straight day of delays at BHX, a slight change of problem, as three jets have not operated this morning albeit one is the spare 195.

Two 175's out, one since mid-afternoon yesterday's Berlin and another that last flew last night. Both covered by Q400's (Stuttgart, Edinburgh & Jersey) but the subsequent Q400 schedule is up the spout.

Delays out to Glasgow (Glasgow aircraft), Inverness (BHX aircraft), Deauville (BHX aircraft), second Jersey and Newquay. Not helped by the late arrival of the Isle of Man aircraft as well. delays between 60 and 150 minutes.

Is there seems to be a reluctance (cost) to use the Cello aircraft that has been on the ground BHX for the last few days?
