According to Airborne Colours LM latest ATR 42 is ready, the former G-HUET from Aurigny. Its good to see even in these uncertain times that LM are pressing ahead with their fleet renewal.The ATR will no doubt allow them a stable platform to continue to develop the brand and to build a larger and most importantly sustainable route network hopefully throughout the U.K.

I'm not convinced a newly acquired 21 year old ATR 42 is considered 'fleet renewal'.

a couple of weeks ago. Seasonal routes not happening for this year but will be back next year. Carlisle won't be back but that's the airport's call.

Pity about the seasonal routes, however none of us can say it wasn’t coming.

On another note, G-SAJB which has been sitting in ABZ since January is now -1 engine:

It’s been missing an engine since early this year or maybe before.

It is then heading to Goose Bay and Bangor for major maintenance at C&L Aerospace.

Prob someone did their homework... but how the hell does that make sense to do maintenance in Canada on a E145... Nice trip for crew... but costly joke..

It’s not as bad as you might think. Roundtrip flight at £40k cost against £15k or so for going to the usual place near Lisbon. When an Embraer C Check can easily cost £350-400k, the extra £25k of ferry costs could comfortably be outgunned by a modest saving in the check itself. Acid test will be whether it happens again after this first one.

Would an FAA ADS-B mandate exception inside the USA have cost anything considerable extra?

A normal "C Check" doe snot cost those amounts, a normal standard C Check on E145 would be in the region of $150K. Hence I was asking the question why the hell they went to Canada.

They have shops closer by and that they have relations with. Just seems odd to ferry such far for any input on this type of aircraft..

Can I point out that Bangor is in the United States, and the MRO in question has a long standing relationship with Loganair over many years.
Your estimate of $150k for a standard 'C' check is way off he mark given the age of the tails involved, I've had 20 odd years experience with them.
Loganair want a decent product in return, sadly some of the European MRO's quality is falling far short of the mark.

I would expect a European C on these to be circa £0.5m from what I've seen on the E145? $150k certainly way off the mark.
