The TCX 330 Lourdes flight is correct and I think Bergen charters are Jet2 on the 733.

Cheers nclops, do you know of anything else? I feel as though we're due some interesting movements it's been a while... Not seen the Kuwaiti's for ages!

Bearing in mind 'the Kuwaitis'' cargo, I'd be a bit disappointed if anyone let us all know in advance when they are going to be turning up (and when a few truckloads of cash are making their way up the Western Bypass)!

we've discussed this before - everyone knows about it and its several zillion Kuwaiti dinars - mianly in low denomination notes

If you knock it over you'll have a real problem buying a beer down the Bigg Market with them and then trying to export several tons of them to Kuwait isn't going to be easy either

I don't think even N Rock ran dinar accounts....................

Fair point Harry. Still, probably not the sort of thing they'll want to advertise.

I've heard about them a few days in advance before, maybe a week... Do De La Rue still do the money for them? And are the Kuwaiti's the biggest bulk buyers? Never see any other nationalities coming over for their cash

cargo flights

Think you will find most of these "special" flights go out of Robin Hood and Stansted.
Newcastle. Not able to handle...

EK77WNCL when the Euro first came out there was a regular IL-76 shuttle.


Thought I saw something in the media were the factory was being reduced or moved?

All Euro notes that begin with the letter H at the start of the serial number are printed by De La Rue in Gateshead irrespective of the country which issues them

That's a shame, but I suppose it's not really worth NCL setting up a cargo handling area of any kind of scale for 3/4 large cargo operations per year

I'll bear that in mind about the euros, I didn't know that but that's very interesting

I seem to remember that although De La Rue were going to close or reduce some plants they are going to build a new hi tech plant in Washington.

De la Rue defo. use Woolsington - makes no sense to move a lorry load of notes all the way to E Midlands when NCL can handle easily the flights......

heard that they are working on the new UK plastic notes right now...............

There's a new facility been built in Cumbria for producing the UK plastic notes. I met some aussie bird in a bar - she was the project manager in charge of setting up the facility.

To be fair, nighthawk never mentioned DLR. All they said was there was a facility been built in Cumbria. They were probably referring to this: http://www.in-cumbria.com/Plastic-ba...e5d128399fa-ds which is a facility in Cumbria aiding the production of the new plastic notes.
