currently the training schedule shows visits to NQY, SNN, PIK, DSA, CWL & MAN.

The first commercial flights are planned as I posted above on the 21-23rd june (pax notified of change in advance) and a regular schedule starts on the 24th (pax notified at check-in), there is also a promo flight scheduled for the 8th, LGW-MAH (I believe though that has not been confirmed)

As above. No BOH visits scheduled in the training programme as of now. TUIA looks like it will be base training at NQY from MAN, and TUIB will be on the ground at MAN on the 3rd June.

According to an article in a newspaper the B787 will spend 3 weeks in SNN in
June for training
It wont be on the ground for a full 3 weeks. It will position in/out from MAN and in the 3 weeks, flights will also be undertaken at NQY/PIK/CWL and DSA.

I believe about 5 training flights are planned at SNN.

Quite a good thing for NQY to pull off considering the airline doesn't actually operate into the airport.

Quiet airspace, long runway etc

Was on board TOM 767 today from NBE to LGW. They were informing people to visit man on 31st for a 787 launch bash with freebies and souvenirs to celebrate and a press conference.

It's just over Burnley at FL140...could be an early arrival or maybe they'll hold somewhere on purpose.

Watched her flight right from the beginning, I listened to KPAE atc when they requested taxi, then watched KPAE live webcam and seen her depart. Then finally watched her from north Scotland all the way down to short finals at MAN, it's safe to say I'm tired! If anyone wants to watch G-TUIB takeoff from KPAE tonight here's the link for the atc and webcam, Paine Field/Snohomish County Airport WebCam

Held it over Blackburn for a couple of loops - so this shot was taken at 6.5 miles out with my trusty 300mm lens

Beautiful day for it! TUIB is still due in tomorrow but anyone got an approximate date for TUIC?

BBC News - Tui Travel to buy 60 Boeing 737 MAX aircraft

TUI agrees to buy 60 737 max aircraft with a further 30 options, I assume Thomson to get 737 max aircraft aswell then? Another website saying there having a mix of 800s & 900s?
