Anyway plan of FR moving to T3 anytime soon?

Also, what about the charters in T1? Will TCX be moving over shortly? Will MON go to T2 and ZB T3 or will they both go to T2?

mufc4evr - to answer your question regarding Fedex. They're sick and tired of all the militant workers there, enginering and ground ops especially, whose only purpose in life is to cause misery to airlines and passengers

Fighting talk, indeed, and quite the Pandora's box you've opened.

Care to elaborate?

No not really, it should be quite well known that the MAN base in general has more than its fair share of militant employees, notably by factions still present from the 1980's who, seem to infiltrate and manipulate the most recent, modern and entusiastic airlines. I speak from personal experience of this since the days of Dan-Air where martyrdom was rife and has weedled its way into current times and airport operations.

I thought it was going to be:

T1 Scheduled
T2 Charter
T4 LCC?

sorry thats what i meant, they're deffinatly getting rid of the 733's from MAN.
When did you hear this.

I am based at Man on that fleet and the last I heard about 3 weeks ago is that there is going to be 2 300's and 3 800's. 5 737'2 in total. Heard it from our engineers who were told this last month.

Would like to know when and where you heard different

ill try and get futher info for you.

The airport will shut for 15 minutes on the nearest two Saturdays to November 5 so families living nearby can hold their annual displays !

AF is, according to one periodical, going to use EMB195s on AF2568/AF2569 from the winter timetable, and from March replacing an A320 with an A321 on the "mid-morning" flight. THe only mid-morning AF flighit I can remember was the discontinued AF1968/AF1969, so perhaps they mean AF1668/AF1669 which may be retimed slightly?

SkyEurope is expected to keep their Kosice run at 3 a week during the winter.
