J32's
 

Anyone happen to know if G-BUVC and G-BUVD are in operation with Eastern at the moment or in storage. Also if they are leased or owned outright by Eastern ?

Thanks,

What do you think of Eastern operating CWL-LCY on a J41 as i would certainly use the service?

:hmm:

Perhaps the Eastern limitation out of Wick, with some 1800 metres of runway, would not be so much a take off limit there as a landing weight limit at Aberdeen, through which their southbound flights pass. Since it is probable that the fuel price index is less at Aberdeen than at Wick; I should have thought that a fuel uplift at that through point southwards would be perhaps of a twofold necessity?:)

G-BUVD was at Wick today. Also Have seen Eastern taking fuel on at Wick on a number of occasions same with Loganair.

Cwl??????
 

Where have Eastern gone?? The night stop has all but dissapeared... Haven't seen a J41 for days..... What's the story here????

It might be beacuse theyre only operating Newcatle this summer, Brussels to return Sept 11 when EU parliment re-opens. Hope that helps.

Yep....

Just had a look at Eastern website....

BRU from 11th of SEP.. ( from CWL )

Nice paint job, though does make it look a little BMI!!!!

Does anyone know when Cardiff-Aberdeen service will start? And what what about other routes?

T3 Recruitment
 

They have an ad in the local press here for cabin crew.

However as I'm +5ft 10, I'm out! :ok:

Are they planning new routes/expansion/ Or are they just short of cabin crew:confused:

4 more routes out of ABZ.

Think CWL may be one. Possibly LCY another. And a stab in the dark, BRU as another? Which leaves a.n.other other.

Those extra Jetstreams gotta go somewhere!!! :}

Think you're wrong here - first flight on the booking engine is 2 October.

Sorry but i originally thought it was until AviaceUK said sept 11. Then i edited my post but sorry.:ok:

My apologies - I just noticed you were quoting someone else.

It was when I looked!!!
 

I'm not lying!!! Honest!!!

When I checked the schedule of CWL-BRU..it said it resumed from September 11th....

Just looked now, and it indeed says October 2nd......

Your guess is as good as mine.....

Cheers....

Does anyone have a list of actual crew bases for Eastern? Also, where are the Saab 2000s based?

ones at NWI

They have pilots (and CC) based at the following airports...

Aberdeen, Cardiff, Chester/Hawarden, Durham Tees Valley, Humberside, Inverness, Isle of Man, Leeds/Bradford, Manchester, Newcastle, Norwich, Nottingham East Midlands, Southampton and Wick

Of which they have Saab 2000 crews at Aberdeen (ABZ-NCL-SOU) and Norwich (NWI-ABZ) and J32 crews I imagine are at Aberdeen and Wick :confused:
