Hi skip
A new venture has been formed as a break away from CAF and those will be staying put at NQY with a new facility being constructed near the old crosswinds runway using a HAS. Cornwall Aviation heritage centre. cs |
Any chance of shoving a clapped out 330 in there too Cornish? I noticed a couple for part out when I was there last month
|
Those 330's for part-out are apparently only about 13 years old.
Of course I don't know how many hrs/cycles, but seems very young to me. |
330's

Per other forums the problem with the EK A330's and I don't whether there is a grain of truth in this (pun intended) surrounds the position of their base over the last 13 years i.e. sand and salt issues (beach location with winds). I am no expert and haven't got a clue if this is anywhere near the truth but again if you believe what you read Virgin Australia at times have not been happy with their ex EK A330's. Again nothing to back that up other than what has been taken from various forums. I have seen this type of explanation given before for other airliners based near the sea where high winds occur and not just EK. Pete |

Don't know what flight or aircraft is involved here, but as per fr24 BE806 LGW-NQY diverted to EXT

It's a light aircraft, so probably not a scheduled commercial flight.

Pilot killed in Newquay Cornwall Airport crash

Looks like Ryanair are coming back, reports suggest departure fee will be scrapped for Spanish and German routes.
|
Iv also seen news today regarding the fee and came to the same conclusion, but what I read didn't mention routes.
This could mean FR or others, perhaps U2?, AB or other? cs |
Only thing I found is a NQY "destination" page on the Harps website....
Flights to Newquay | Flights to Europe | Ryanair Couldn't find any other detail as illuded to in previous few posts...any links? |
Newquay Airport's £5 'development' fee to be scrapped
Newquay Airport's £5 'development' fee to be scrapped - BBC News The routes and return of FR or other airlines is currently just speculation cs |
Not before time. As to airlines now flocking to Newquay, why would they? All that has happened is the airport is now no longer at a disadvantage to just about every other airport in the UK because of the fee.
|
do you really think £ 5 on a flight makes a difference?
people pay more than that for a couple of drinks before takeoff |
ADF
and add that £5 to £13 APD and that's quite an expensive round of drinks - or £31 if you want to come back.
|
£31 pounds is alot for an airline like Ryanair.
