Ryanair 737-200's parked up
Three Ryanair 737-200's are now parked on the disused runway at Dublin - two in full colours and the 'Jaguar' billboard.
Is this the start of the withdrawals?

The following aircraft are now withdrawn from use.
EI-CJE/F/H & I ex Britannia
EI-CKP/S ex Transavia
Not too sure if the Excel and EAAC hireins have come on line yet. I would expect the EAAC 732 to be based out of LTN operating with full EAAC crew- this is similar to an arrangement employed some years back with the 1-11's.
Afaik the Excel aircraft will have FR cabin crew (not sure about cockpit)

The EAAC aircraft is in fact operating out of STN, doing routes such as FRL and SNN. I believe it is EAAC flight deck and cabin crew (in a similar agreement to the one they recently had with bmi).
Excel have wintered flight deck crews with FR before, so I think it will be only cabin crew supplied by FR on these aircraft.
Can anyone confirm have FR re-introduced some of the ex-buzz B733s which were stored. I think they may have. 3 146s are definitely operating, so I don't think they will have too chronic shortages in capacity over the winter.

BAe 146-100
Indeed the 737-200 is still operating the Blackpool - Dublin service while they are using the 146 between Stanstead and Blackpool until the new year when the 738 is due to replace it.

Findo,
What are your sources for that info ? I very much doubt these birds will be "repaired" and would be very dubious of any management who would do this for aircraft originally due to be retired from next March.
