Yep..It's Coming...!!
I can confirm that there is a Flyglobespan engineering team in New Zealand this week to confirm delivery status of the B767-300.
I think this rumour of it's "non-arrival" eminated from engineers at Glasgow due to the fact they hadn't been briefed on issues other than station line maintenance at Glasgow. I understand that the plans are in place for phased maintenance of the B767 at SFB - due to the increased down time of the A/c at SFB as opposed to Glasgow. In another twist - the Training Manager and force behind the introduction of the B767 is non other that one of the most respected and capable individuals in UK aviation management - formerly chief pilot of a certain "air touring company" located in Manchester. Sorry to quash the negative rumours re: Flyglobespan B767 - but it is on it's way...more to follow....watch this space..!!!:ok: :ok: |

Just to add to this...my NZ engineeing contacts..(Hi Rob!) have advised me of a couple of headaches thanks to the boys from north of the border, of the alcohol induced variety:}

Yes Codpiece Face, I do! Thought you would have known that due to my absence recently from "you know who.":D Check your PMs
|
Do storm have anyone available at GLA with 767 approval?.

bacardi walla
The gentleman you refer to has been feted in quarters you'd never be permitted entry to ! The problem with this forum is people sniping behind anonymity, if you have an axe to grind with Mr F, write to him and resolve it, don't listen to and perpetrate (though that's what's kept Danny and others here happy for years now) rumour. PM me and I'll be happy to ask and get answers to any questions you like. cabot Whether you are a frequent flier or not ;) your Orlando trip with flyglobespan is perfectly safe and if you've booked the villa via Globespan, it's equally safe. Have faith, it will happen. :ok: |
Guys, this thread is beginning to turn into personal attacks instead of sticking to the topic. Thanks hogg

Care to throw us a few hints on destinations Poca? |
Hmm, I wrote to Globespan and downloaded their application form about 2 months ago. I haven't heard a sausage from them.

PocaHostie is flying at the mo, however, try the website for up to date destination information: teachin What position did you apply for, and was it Globespan or flyglobespan? |
FLYGLOBESPAN B767
Does anyone know when the B767-300 for Flyglobespan will be in GLA? I heard it is due early April. Is this correct?
Also, has anyone any info on routes for Winter 06 yet? Will they continue with Florida or change their destinations? |
It`s doing 3 flights a week Manchester to Capetown so not much time left for anything else

I thought that a 2nd B767 will be coming in October 2006 to accommodate the MAN-CPT flights, as they are still selling the SFB flights until hte end of November, which would mean that they meed 2 aircraft in order to fly the 2 routes. Have they received permission yet from the South African Government to fly the route?
|
please delete
|
Why wouldn't they get a first any more? I do know for a fact that the B767-300 is due in at GLA sometime next month, so your sources are wrong. About the CPT route, I'm not sure about that, they are still waiting on approval from the SA Govt. We shall have to wait and see.

On another website there is a picture of a 767 in Flyglobespan livery in Auckland. http://www.airliners.net/open.file?i...RFP&photo_nr=2

Thank you for that, the first picture we have of our new baby ! Tail decals still to be applied, but 'isn't she lovely'. Her sister is still on schedule for arrival with us in Nov 2006. Watch this space chaps ! :ok: |
BLACK_BUSH ya big tease!
At least drop us a few hints? West, East, or South? City or sun? I'd love one of the destinations to be, ahem, worth a gamble? |
The picture in question is a computer graphic copied from the popular game Flight Simulator, look at the sea behind the plane, its a cartoon! I have that game so am familiar with the style of the image. Don't be duped by someones artistry with the Flight Sim game.

Looks pretty real to me
