Grrr

FLYMATE, the flights to/from Belfast were near full most of the time. The aircaft would fly to Belfast in the morning, return and do two German troopers, than fly off to Belfast in the evening. During the summer, the aircaft would do a night charter as well. Once the trooping contract was lost/not bid for and the 737-200's sold off, the Belfast was no more.

Was the first London Lo-Co route IMHO.

More exciting news for Luton, we must wait and see?
