I believe MAN allows landings on RWY(s) 23 with up to a 3 knot tailwind.
With low cloud base/poor visibility and an unserviceable ILS on 23R for the time being, do ATC switch arrivals to 05 if it means that ILS landings are possible - in order to accept as many landing aircraft as possible?
Would the tailwind limits ever be altered at an airport (if the aircraft's crew could accept the landing) in such a situation?
(I realise that the current high pressure means that winds are very light anyway.)

43,804 passengers in September from Manchester
Is it just me or is that figure slightly wrong, it works out at over 700 pax per flight. I don't think EK can get that on an A380 so there's no chance on their 777's.

Biman return to MAN with 772
I have been in contact with the UK Director of Biman who confirmed that the airline will return to MAN 4 times a week transit flights DAC/JFK.
Although they have applied for slots from 27th Oct. He did say that it will more likely be a few weeks after this.
He also mentioned as when they operated before at MAN that there may be some delays when the service is operating.

From the BIMAN website.
No mention of the ex Cathy/Singapore 777-200s.
MAN OPS do you know the transit timings at MAN?
In order to replace the aging aircraft and mordernize the fleet with new generation aircraft, Biman has signed agreements with aircraft manufacturer The Boeing Company on 22 April 2008 and 30 May 2008 for purchase of 04 new 777-300ER to be delivered in 2013, 04 new 787-8 to be delivered in 2019/2020 and 02 new 737-800 aircraft to be delivered in 2015.

would biman be allowed to sell MAN-JFK tickets? The other airlines on this route can be quite pricey a lot of the time boohoo british airways pulling off the route...

I think PIA do, but only via travel agents and it may be the same for Biman.
At the moment, the best prices are available from LHR as more airlines move onto the route increasing the competition massively.
It is now, on a number of occasions to fly MAN-LHR-NYC with a connection flight than it is to fly non-stop.
