BTW.. what has happening/happened to Faro…any update?
Still nothing. It remains on the drop down list option for routes, but no flights on sale going forward. On the FR thread, confirmation that 10% of next summer still to be released as FR unclear on what aircraft they will have due to delivery delays. That *could* be an explanation. It also contradicts the likelihood of a base aircraft coming as another theory as to why Faro (and other new routes) have not materialised.

Still no news on Harold's jigsaw either.....any more insight Harold?

Think Harold has realised what the rest of the Tees Valley commerce and industry has worked out. Mr Gove will apparently not publish the long overdue mayoral corruption report so most have drawn conclusions as to its content.
We are perhaps awaiting a good day to release the report?

Good point well made, but can't think of anybody else taking this approach - certainly not the LCC's. If TUI continue with the model you'd expect to see a slow move from non based flying operating W's into MME before a transition to a MME based unit which also does some W's out. We would seem to be some time away from that for MME.

And apologies in advance for thread drift, but what's happening next year without Sunwing's - I thought I'd read that Aberdeen had been dropped but can't find it now?

They're starting an ACMI operator in partnership with Enter Air called Fly4 Airlines with ex TUI B738s on the Irish register according to Jethros. They've also sent their spare capacity to Sunwing for this winter so still ongoing for now

Seems everyone expects news instantly.

I also said that delays to new aircraft deliveries was having an effect on scheduling.

Wow. What a surprise of something like this from you. Do you ever have anything positive to say about Teesside. Going off previous posts it doesn't seem you have.

My appologies Harold. I know that you are very sensitive when it comes to the mayor but you did make up one of your posts containing riddles and mentioned a "glaringly obvious smoking gun" which was an invitation to guess at what you were getting at. I thought I had cracked it but perhaps you would clarify what you were reporting so we dont have to guess. Incidentaly, the corruption enquiry was completed some time ago but even the press have not been shown the report so it's a legitimise question, most certainly not a criticism of the region.

Grumpy, I can't find anything to suggest the inquiry has finished? Normally these things take a while. Also once they are done they are often leaked in advance too.
Can you point to where you have found out it has been completed please.

What are you on about sensitive when it comes to the Mayor?
Please stop making false statements.

Where have I made something up.

You want to know everything yesterday instead of waiting for things to be announced in course of time.

Not sure all news (adverse) re the airport gets through these days for whatever reason🤔

I thought more would have been made of a complete airfield closure for many hours due a power failure a couple of days ago?

Or maybe sheep invading the airfield and causing a few small delays..is the wool being pulled over our eyes😀

I wouldnt say that now. TUI usually update there schedule later on as well for next summer.

Its very early to rule out new routes for S25

After two years of Southside road building we thought the Battle HQ building was safe as it wasn't in the path of the new road. Today sadly there is just a patch of brown earth. Perhaps it didn't blend in with the new tin shed.
Middleton St. George(2) Airfield Battle HQ – Subterranea Britannica (subbrit.org.uk)

If anyone can see a plan with it removed or being described as being removed I would be interested. It should have been preserved.

Another report of mayoral mischief in the FT this week but of interest to us, the article suggests that the Corruption Report is to be released this month. I suspect that potential investors in the region and the airport are keeping a close eye on this so hopefully there will be some resolution soon.

The last two 159s haven't come online as yet. This is the one off colour scheme of the six in use. Others are all grey.

Fairly sure the last two have had a flight since arriving. Might just be G awaiting first flight.
