Thanks Jimbo

According to my research,G-BRYJ is currently registered C-FEXZ. Does that help find it?

(Yes,I know what you're all thinking---ANORAK,but this detective work fascinates me!)

C-FEXZ

George, C-FEXZ is registered to Field Aviation Company who are based at YYZ.

Thanks for that. Are they an operator or dealer?

[Fried_Chicken]

Are these DHC8-300s going to be used on a specific route/from a specific base?

Flybe Newquay to London

It's rumoured that Flybe are seeking to pick up some of the schedule being dropped by Ryanair out of Newquay.

I wonder which London airport they are likely to use.

[NCLRULES]

I've read on KeyPub LGW - NQY 3x Daily.

NCLRULES

That's what I wondered, thanks V much.

[GROUNDHOG]

What is the rational behind that then? WOW already fly three times daily to Gatwick and FR are only dropping a morning service to Stansted - and we all know it has nothing to do with airport charges possibly more to do with Winter looming.

I would of course love to see Flybe here but can't somehow see seven flights a day to Gatwick in the deep mid Winter!

[abracadabra]

Well flybe have to find some routes to put their all their new aircraft on, so 78-seat dash vs 50-seat dash with WOW sounds like good competition from their point of view.

Anyone know what wow's loads are like on this route?

[jabird]

Would this work for SEN when new terminal fully ready for operations?

[fly20]

Will prob be STN to pick up on the pax that FR have already built up. Might also tie in with their base at Norwich.

[Oshkosh George]

Bear in mind that KeyPub is a forum,and Gatwick is no more than a guess at which London airport it would be,although the same post says Flybe have applied for slots.

[WOWBOY]

The rumours of flybe appliing for slots at LGW started on airliners.net!!!

[tilewood]

Southend's existing terminal can handle over 350000 pax per year, so Flybe don't have to wait for the new one to open if they
decided to use SEN

[airhumberside]

Any news on if Flybe will add more SEN flights yet?

[tilewood]

I believe that there are plans for flybe to operate an expanding route network from SEN beginning next year. An announcement
is expected before Christmas.

For info the SEN- JER schedule is always full and sometimes o/booked.

[airhumberside]

Thanks. I know last year most announcements for this summer where made first week of December

[Trislander]

tilewood,

How can the flybe SEN-JER flights be overbooked when flybe have a policy against overbooking flights?
