Noticed that GCEJO has just returned back to Glasgow today after being with Aerostar for a week.

It has been away for a week and from my limited knowledge it can be anything from 3-10 days to apply winglets to a 737. Anyone know if its had them attached?

Cheers,

Good to hear! Not took long since the delivery for it to get them has it

So for GSM is this it now? Staying at a fleet of around 12 a/c with alot of ACMI work over the winter and slow, less evident expansion in the summer. Shame though i would have thought GSM could have taken advantage of 1 or 2 more cheap 737's out there on the market to help bolster there place and market share especially at EDI with FR, EZY, LS etc now having an impact and securing their position at GLA. As TD says GSM is still profitable and has no debts. Yet hes taking a very cautious approach cutting fleet and routes and concentrating on ACMI work which in the long run mayb be the better approach or it could be an opportunity missed.

Why did GSM take over alba?

And how many times has JO been booked into SEN for the elusive winglet fit? I personally booked it in 5 times its never going to happen. GSM you were there when I did it so you should know.

Bracebrace,

While something may appear permissible under the T and Cs it is worth remembering that "unfair" T and Cs are simply invalid.

I would certainly try the Small Claims Court to obtain a refund.

The SCC can be very efficient. My practice is to prepare all the documents and send copies to the offending party before sending them to the court. Usually seems to result in prompt payment.

There is a posiioning flight tomorrow from Edinburgh to Southend at 06:30, currently showing as GDLCH being allocated, however GSAAW which is operating from Edinburgh today with GDLCH is to be swapped at Alicante this afternoon with GCEJO. Maybe GCEJO will end up on the ferry flight?

Ferry flights are usually set up for a specific aircraft.

If they planned to send G-CEJO it would be considerably easier to set up the ferry flight from GLA rather than go through the grief of a tail swap down route.

As you said it would probably be more simple to send GCEJO from GLA, however the aircraft did swap in ALC yesterday evening, and this morning GCEJO has now arrived at SEN from EDI

Are the B73W going through maintenance at the moment?

GSEFC is in Aberdeen with Edinburgh being operated by a pair of B73H.

No idea where GMSJF is at present?
