I'd love one of the destinations to be, ahem, worth a gamble?

Blackpool's a lovely spot & a longtime favourite destination for Scots but our Chairman has already mentioned taking his customers rather further afield:

Fly Globespan

Rumours abound of leasing in larger aircraft (Not B767-300s) for long-haul ops to Africa and the Far East... Anyone got any more info?

Interesting, just back from FAJS and heard a similar Rumour, also one surrounding Ryanair loghaul into South Africa, sure I've seen that mentioned on here before.

Im sure there was talk of them before ordering the 777, a few months ago, and the 767 is a stop gap to see how longhaul performs

The plan was actually 787s,but these obviously not yet available,hence the 767s.

Its nice to hear of a new airline doing so well with such investments in aircraft and people. I'd like to know if the FlyGlobespan Stansted base is also getting further investment??
i'm 73NG rated and would love to fly out of Stansted.. Any tips before i send in my C/V??

Thanks,

I love this all you real doubters. lol

just for your unbelieving information this beastie is arriving in EDI tomorow (Sun 9th April) to start cabin crew training.

I have had such a giggle with you people saying "no. if definately aint comin, etc" give us a break and grab your anoraks to see this thing in the flesh so to speak for yourself.

Edited picture indeed haha

Cool

There was some a short lived plan to put the a/c in EDI for a few
days, however as stated it will now be delivered straight to its
base GLA, should arrive around 0300z.

watched the 763 land at Glasgow this morning at 4.05 am.

nice approach came over past the Erskine Bridge then turned went over Faifley then over top of Bearsden and lined up short over Drumchapel.

it was parked at the end of low-cost pier when I got to the terminal fully painted and ready to go.

Anyone any ideas what it is going to be used for, prior to taking up flights across the pond to SFB apart from trainig purposes? Seems a waste to see it sitting idle for 6 weeks.

Well if it's anything like when the 800s & 600s arrived a year ago it'll probably be off around the country on tour to burn-off the sectors for the crews. Manual loadsheets anyone?
