Numbers not out for July yet, but i am led to believe that best to bhx has been about 32 so far but regularly they are above the 20 mark.

Everything about the Newquay service has disappeared off the flywhoosh site, I think it can be reasonably inferred from this that its been dropped.

Hope they kept the receipt for the surfboard they used to advertise it.

God that was short lived !! Wonder whats up then ? I had heard a while back that if whoosh went for the newquay route they might lose the route development funding they were getting, heard nothing since.

Maybe had to do with the apparent loss of a decent day return option from BHX on the days the aircraft would have continued to NQY?

DUB

Saw this on the DUB website:

Arrival Times

Dundee White Eagle Aviation WEA513 21-07-2007 11:55

Could this be FLYWHOOSH doing time trials on the route??

Far from going whoosh, from what i have read and heard whoosh are doing well. Numbers are very good and in fact they say that other routes are in the pipeline !! Mmmm, maybe a manchester again ? Dublin or competition for scot airways to london ?

Bit of bad news about the Scot-Airways Reservations at Dundee, but future looks bright with city-jet/air france.

No more news about flywhoosh and more routes yet ?

Isn't HIAL due to take over shortly ?

I noticed on teletext that there was a flight from Dundee to Prestwick this morning (or was it yesterday?). The flight number was JEM44. Does anyone know the purpose of this flight and which airline it was?

After the cancellation of Whoosh's NQY service, rumours did start to surface that Whoosh were looking at serving PLH instead.

Does anyone have any more on this??

Does anyone have any idea about the Yellow Waterplane that's in DND at the moment? Saw it today from the bus, had a black cover over the front of the cabin.

The yellow float plane is a huskey I think, its brand new, the rudder steering on the water is pulling a bit and its getting realigned. It is going to be used for float plane training at one of the loch's nearby.

The Tuesday rotation to Belfast and the Friday morning service to Birmingham have both been dropped according to this mornings paper.

Also various things going on this week connected to HIAL taking over at the beginning of September.
