Driving home from LGW this afternoon, I saw a DC10F approaching and I am hoping that it was DAS Air. Anyone got any news on this movement??

Heard that it was coming in for de-kit of all DAS eqpt, then back to the states for reregistering/resale.

:rolleyes:

There are 4 DAS DC10's at Manston, I appreciate that DAS engineering are in the process of taking over the old jet support hanger, but most of thier fleet on the ground, something must be adrift ??

As has been been stated before, DAS are returning some of the fleet off lease through no fault of their own. As a result some require work to return them in the condition the leasor requires. There were 4 aircraft in but just for one day. There will be a few hangar inputs until things settle down. The fleet may become 3 for a while when the others are returned.
Today, Saturday, there are just the two at MSE not four.
