Thanks Voldermort.As for Runawayedge , LTE allow 1hr 10 min turnaround for this flight at City of Derry so they are guilty of being on the ground 16 minutes later than planned - hardly a drama. the vast majority of LTE's Palma, Reus and Lanzarotte charters usually turn around in about 55mins - 1hr 5mins.The 16 min delay i suggest was probably due to the ramp congestion- a problem that is being dealt with. Time to take your little axe and grind it elsewhere.

MAN - LDY was an old Loganair route which they stopped and started a few times depending on plane availability. Always seemed to do OK (on a small plane). Aer Arann tried it and dropped it. Wonder if BMI Baby are sniffing around it given that Ryanair get decent (but nor spectacular) loads on their LPL - LDY run.

Would not be surprised if it was baby....maybe a straight transfer from NOC, I heard they are struggling a bit on this route (rumour no verbal assaults please) and for clarity my timings were right on the LTE, but matter closed, and no axe to grind!

I'm sorry but it's not closed, far from it. You decided to come on this forum and Lie / exagerate ( you chose - I know which one i'm going with !) about the LTE6352/6353's ATA & ATD and claiming it didn't take fuel when it did. You've subsequently been exposed as being totally wrong so get over it.Next time you go spouting off, get your facts right first as you'll usually find someone has access to the proper information ready to put you right.
If your still claiming your timings are right about the LTE lets here them and we'll see how they compare with the CAA stats - I could do with a laugh. Oh and I can produce a copy of the fuel docket too if your still claiming it didn't take fuel before a 4 & a half hour flight direct to GCRR full of pax.
NOW the matter is closed!

My feelings on LDY are that the Airport will only get better.
Spirits amongst some of the staff despite the recent bad press seem to be higher...wonder why
Now at least the place will move on and continue to provide a valuable service to the people of the North West without posing any threat to our other two Airports.
The new apron expansion will be a great help, I've seen how close the 738 wingtip comes to the corner wall of the baggage reclaim...not much room for error!
Any more word on the Runway extension.

Oooh bet they're scared now ! - a complaint about what exactly - being delayed 16 minutes on their turnaround? Runawayedge stop talking complete rubbish - you were on the flight - pity you didn't note it's ATA, the fact it DID take on fuel and it's ATD. Unfortunately for you I was there and witnessed and noted all three. Sort of ruins your "end of holiday nightmare" story doesn't it? I'll let you know if your - opps sorry - LTE's "complaint" turns up......
Stewart 28 if it's the area east of the Hire car offices, i've heard it might be a long stay car park.
BELhold you're not kidding about the Apron - I swear those RYR winglets look a little more bent on departure than they did on arrival ! expansion urgently needed .

Does anyone know how far back the extension will go? What is the proposed new runway length?
I hope they don't move the perimeter fence too far out from what it currently is. You can get such a cool view right underneath aircraft landing 08 ... just a stones throw from the 08 threshold.

Alpha Echo......you are wrong.......sometimes it takes a deep look inwards to improve......for me matter is closed.....but always remember you have two customers airlines and passengers without either you're an empty carpark!

Runawayedge I can understand your desire for the matter to be closed given your public humiliation but no such luck i'm afraid. Your inability to do basic maths is showing again RYR LOG LTE & FCA are four operators not two + 15 based aircraft ranging from microlights to Jet Provost + 3 flying schools + an ever increasing number of Adhoc charters too(does anyone know who the BLE Fokker 100 to Lyon was operated for last night by the way?) and numerous biz jets(3 due in today - info correct at teatime last night) and 2 based cj1 bizjets due this winter once the hangar goes up. Oh, we also have car parks!
Without it's passengers and operators ANY Airport is an empty car park you muppet.
Love the place, hate it with a passion and promise never to fly from/to there again - that's your opinion and choice - just don't lie about it. Forum members surely deserve better.

What an amusing "discussion"!..runawayedge i think throwing in the towel might be the best option..no man can withstand such a hammering! AE..think you should lay off him now..he's well and truly beaten..i feel he will think before he speaks next time!
Btw runawayedge maybe the tabloids would be interested in your "creative reporting"!
