Noticed it positioned to EMA a couple of days ago. I am guessing it is probably being painted in Loganair colours.

LM’s most recent schedule update now shows that they are planning to have 2 ER3’s based at NWI from the start of 31MAR. LM previously planned to op 1 ER3 and 1 SF3 from 31MAR to 31MAY with the 2nd ER3 relaying the SF3 from 01JUN

LM’s 2 D38’s appear to be planned to op there final flight from NWI to both EDI and MAN on 29MAR. I recently flew on the SF3 from DND-STN and have to say that the D38 is a much more comfortable aircraft to fly on.

Does anyone know if LM are going to the D38’s beyond 29MAR?. Would to see them operating from DND again..

Both have been up for sale for years. They've now decided just to go ahead and get rid of them this year to make way for the ER3's.

G-SAJC noted at EMA in full LM colours today.

GLA-DUS route launch brought forward exclaiming better than expected demand/forward bookings.
Seems promising if genuine.

It moved up to Glasgow the same day. Yesterday they cancelled three flights of G-SAJB on MAN-INV, not sure if they used another aircraft but JC not seen. Is it getting some trim work?

According to this it operated on Monday afternoon to Stornoway (but FR24 shows it was the S2000).

I've got this weeks printed copy of that paper and this article is not there, as far as I can see, so it may just be on the website. I looked up FR24 for LM477 and the aircraft goes to ER4 on Monday coming. The article quotes an airline director so the reporter may have received his flyer from LM and started next week's article after this weeks paper was set. I can't see FR24 showing the wrong aircraft?🤔

[ld0595]

FR24 isn’t always correct. I think there was an instance a few months/years back that it thought EK was sending another A380 to Glasgow when it was just a 777.

[Rob Royston]

You're right there. It can be all over the place. If you look up the past history of LM477 for last Monday it shows the destination as Inverness even on the playback of the flight going to Glasgow. Yesterday it does the same. I'll let you know if the article appears in next weeks printed paper, I don't see it till Friday

[BAladdy]

Loganair are planning to replace the SF3 currently used to operate from DND to STN with a D38 from 01APR19.

[southside bobby]

Right-o...& was of course Do328 operated before the SF3 took over the service.

FR24 is generally accurate however does get confused with alpha numeric call signs and flight numbers quite often

That seems to be the case at some airports. I was looking for the SYY-GLA flight BM477 last night as it was the return leg of the first flight by G-SAJC. Working from the map it said the flight went to INV. There was nothing showing on the GLA arrivals list and still isn't. I had a look at INV arrivals later and this showed on flight information / playback that it was diverted to Glasgow. On playback it seems the flight information comes from the aircraft and is correct. The incorrect destination data is still shown in the header of playback and on the flight history spreadsheet.
I wonder where this data is input or collected. The pre-loaded data on the spreadsheet is correct, it only goes wrong when the flight takes off.

[BAladdy]

LM have so far added 1 ER3 and 1 ER4 transferred from BM to there fleet. LM are planning to have 2 x ER3’s based a NWI and a ER4 at GLA and INV from the start of the S19 schedule (31MAR19).

Was wondering if there is any update on when the remaining ER3 and ER4 are planned to be transferred from BM?

[Rob Royston]

G-SAJC has done the GLA-SYY flight LM476 today. It does not appear to have been out since the same flight on Monday last. An SF34 did two of the flights and an SB20 did yesterday's plus all the evening flights that the jet was pencilled in for.
The article featured on the Stornoway Gazette website did not appear in this weeks printed paper either, so it's hard to say whether last Monday was the inaugural flight or if there was another flight the previous Monday, 7th Jan.
