I wonder if G-DAJC is beginning to show her age? Had to return to MAN twice within the past week due to tech problems.

How suprising fire brigade are out to meet G-DAJC again this morning, he got all the way to overhead Munster before returning the other day it was South Wales and then sat overhead Mersi burning fuel down to max landing weight.
It must be costing Thomas Cook a small fortune

Nearest BA 767 age profile to DAJC is BNWV and as of Dec 09 the clocked mileage was 71867 and 53560 respectively.

Hammered!

So thats 35% more than BA for the TCX machine....

17yrs + 35% = 22yrs......

Knackered....let alone hammered!!

No, as they would fail to be self-financing over the course of the remaining lease periods.

One Boeing 767 is being based at LGW, one at MAN and the other at GLA which will also have a 757-300 based there too.
not sure where this info came from, all 3 x 767s will be based at MAN

Airline's own scheduling/planning tool shows all 3 at MAN, maybe one going to GLA for peak, but in the main all 3 at MAN.

Also no cabin crew at LGW are trained on it, no plan to either

Good old TOS!!
