Easyjet 7th aircraft arrives 1st DEC
Simonwa
thanks for that timetable.
Aircraft 2 does a double BRS therefore can not do the BCN resulting in a seventh aircraft needed at NCL

I wouldn't read too much into the routes announced as on sale. At the moment, BRS is missing BUD, HAM, LRH, MAH, MRS, PSA, RJK and VLC. That is a lot of capacity to lose, although they may be seasonal routes.

even more so since on sunday a handling vehicle had a minor collision with one of the carriers 737 a/c, causing a substantial delay!

Ive just re-looked at the timetable and yes it is only 6 aircraft.
I could see the bud being dropped but not the nice and berlin.
Wasn't nice going to be a base for easyjet soon?
Maybe 2 A319 flights aday are going to come into ncl?
Keep watching for JET2. Heard ryanair may have another route for us too.

The problems with EZY yesterday were caused by one of there a/c having hydralic problems and cue EZY favorite game change the a/c
. Cue another one of our a/c going tech in BRS and all hell broke loose
, although the a/c did manage to get back to op 516/517
. 518/519 canx
. PMI subbed to FJE who seem to be making quite a bit out of EZY lately as they have been doing LGW-IBZ for them the past few days
. On the whole just another bad day for EZY, unfortunatley these bad days seem to be becoming more frequent

According to latest GASIL the changes will be introduced on the 6th of JUly
These changes will include two new VRPs at Sunderland Harbour (545506N 00121130W) and Derwent Reservoir (545200N 0015848W). In addition to these the class D airspace element of airway P18 will be extended to the south of TILNI by means of an additional section rising from FL105 to FL125 and bounded by the co-ordinates 543406N 0020308W - 543135N 0013929W - 542344N 0014159W - 542615N 0020534W - 543406N 0020308W.
Newcastle ATC will continue to provide radar and non- radar services within their local area, both inside and outside class D airspace.
Personally I think Newcastle needed the extra room for manoeuvre but I think this has gon a bit to far and think they have been given too much.

HH6702 do you know something we don't?
Jet2 possibly launching winter routes to replace summer services to MAH and PSA? Or more 757 flights to Canaries?
Ryanair, is the long awaited HHN service going to be announced?
Only time will tell......
P.S What about flyglobespan? Weren't they lookng closely at NCL?

The problem with the airspace change is the area south of TILNI at FL105. This was opposed by MME, GATCO and the military. The reasons for this was that there would be constrictions on traffic in the top end of the Vale of York as well as constrictions on Leemings and Durham Tees Valley inbounds and outbounds.
I believe the skills of ATCOs at NCL are as good as anywhere in the country, but really they should be when they have that amount of airspace to work with. Are NCL going to keep their traffic inside Controlled airspace now?

You are correct with your co-ordinates, however this is only one section of the airspace change. I cannot speak for Postcard, but I think your general throw away comment at the end is what got Postcard's and my reply. Newcastle has long been over due this airspace change, we had the traffic levels years and years ago!
The military objecting – well the airspace you are talking about is virtually a direct result of the Military not giving away any airspace to the west and so NCL needing airspace to descend 07 inbounds. The military were happy with this along time ago.
MME – Well it was very strange MME objecting (not at all strange GATCO if you see what I mean!), MME are also a winner from this section as the present Manchester/Newcastle/DTV agreement will still continue and so MME will have the use of this airspace for in/out bounds from P18 also!
Oooh and yes we will be keeping P18 traffic inside CAS – That being the whole point of the change!

10 DME ARC my personal opinion is not a throw away comment, yours and postcards were definately a throw away comments. Just typical of NCL supporters in general, quick to attack the innocent. If you had taken the time you would of noticed I did say that NCL needed more space.
Is it not true that the gap between MME and the airway is reduced. Meaning that all the traffic that uses this gap will be squeezed into a smaller area and so putting more pressure on ATC at MME while trying to manoeuvre inbounds and outbounds. The problem is that glass G airspace is being squeezed and the military, MME and many of the current users of that piece of airspace are going to be pushed into a smaller area.
I believe that GATCO had conerns originally about safety and believe these fears were eased after revision. Remember GATCO are there just for this sort of thing to try and help in these situations and are well regarded in aviation circles and if they have concerns about airspace change it generally means that there could be a problem with it.
With regards to the military, when have the military ever given up airspace without kicking up a fuss, and too right they need large areas in which to work. In general the military try and gain airspace, look at the Typhoon manoeuvring areas over the North Sea.
We are likely to go round in circles on this all day. Why can't you just accept my opinion? I am entiltled to an opinion, even if you think it is wrong.
