Tri G-JOEY
I take it there is absolutely no chance of G-JOEY going to the Bournemouth Aviation Museum then as an exhibit to tell the story of Britten Norman and the huge contribution they made to aviation in the South of England? It would make a good home for it! Would it be hard to fly it to Bournemouth on its last flight?

Dornier utilisation
Webpage by ciaviation.com listing GCI movements shows Dornier doing 3 flights to/from GCI a day (on average) presumably balance of day is on ACI - SOU route

CS-TGG remains registered as such. It is mainly used on training flights with the odd flight or two being operated between Guernsey and Alderney. I am not aware of it operating any Alderney-Southampton flights.

Thanks for the info Ayline.
Looking at the CAA's AOC holders list dated 13 January 2015 the Dornier 228 does not appear to have been added as a type to Aurigny's AOC.
Does anyone know when that is planned to happen?

Is this ATR a purchase or a lease? What's the variant as that'll dictate if it's Steep Approach mod'd as standard or if a retro-fit is required? Do Aurigny have the approval for LCY? Are their crew trained for it? Sorry, lots of questions but exciting times!
