aer turas still hold an aoc i guess and the phoenix can rise again
You think Aer Turas could return?! I would be very surprised, but it would be great if they could have another stab at things. I think there is a niche there still but it seems so narrow. Maybe if AT could bolster the cargo operations with more marketable aircraft for leasing.

Many operations do return from the ashes - Transaer is back (well vaguely!) as EU-Jetops for example.

Any inside info on the fate of the two DC8's ? EI-CGO and EI-BNA
- rumours circulating saying that BNA is to be b/u in Marena.

I read on another news thread that it has reached its max hours (although on paper seems to have less cycles/hours than CGO).
Presumably its in poor condition due to being in storage so long.
