If there is a new base i think it could possibly be something down south!
Possibly LGW...??? or maybe expanding STN into a Jet2 base (less doubtfull)
If we thinkin up north i reckon HUY or NWI

SKYMAN
I fully agree with your comments.
With all the talk about Jet 2 getting 767 equipment that would fit in with the rumoured big expansion plans from NCL and one other base (probably LBA). I expect we will also see some new medium haul destinations from them next summer.

Jet2
Skyman/Jamesair - The rumours are and this is from a reliable source that current plans are for the Jet2 long haul ops to start SO8 from NCL only. LBA to start the following year (09) but NCL will be used to 'test the water' and rolled out elsewhere is a success.

Sidthesexist, damn right. Any bunch of arseholes who change their name from DoT to DfT in order make people think it's not the same crowd who f*cked up before really should not be treated seriously.
So that's what the notice on the website about getting there early is about!
Flew NCL-LHR and return last Thursday and it was commented by a few people in the queue that the screeners weren't paying attention to the monitors. However, as previously stated standards didn't seem to be any different from anywhere else...

Red Arrows - Great North Run - 30th September
Hey guys,

kinda stuff i'm after ...
what time do they arrive to refuel/ brief/ eat before display/ What time is the display etc .... ?
Thanks alot .
P.s C-GOAF was towed away from the hangar at around 9.30 on sunday evening after a thorough visual inspection of the forward fuselage. I have to say I was shocked when I arrived in wings and discovered that out of the window lol.

The Red Arrows
I'm after the same info. The schedule should have been posted on the Red's website but that's down at the moment. They usually land around lunch time depart for the display a few hours later, return for a Monday morning departure back to Scampton.
