Currently just JB, JD, JL, JY operational. Plan is to get back to 10 operational but most need C checks and other repairs. Plus they need the new ADS-B equipment fitting.
41s are past it and hated by passengers and some crews alike. https://www.flightradar24.com/data/aircraft/g-maja |
Routes
Eastern is to lose its only subsidised french route RDZ-ORY from January 20th 2020.
|
Is that french route the only scheduled flights that they operate outside of the UK, or do they operate other subsidised scheduled routes outside the UK.....

Its the only one eastern operate outside of the UK.
And the route is going to continue but will be flown by Amelia Aviation and will still be subsidised. |
Amelia Aviation are a French operation so probably makes sense//

G-MAJZ and G-MAJU have both been at Cranfield since October, however both just sat outside and don't appear to be getting worked on judging from photos. Any idea what they're doing there?
Saab 2000 G-CERY was "cancelled by CAA" this week. Active fleet down to; 2x ATR 72s, 2x E145s, 3x Saabs and 6x Jetream 41s |
170
What happened to their Embraer 170s?
|
Wfu late 2018, returned to the lessor and apparently stored since.

By G00gling G-MAJZ Cranfield, a decent photo taken 8 days ago appears. Not so much clarity with JU, but there is a pic at what looks like Cranfield
|
JT back in the air this week after nearly a month at MME. New engine fitted in December but took them a while to get it airborne after high powered engine runs. Three or four planned air tests which didn’t go ahead.
Looks like JY is u/s so down to 5 serviceable 41’s at the moment, which doesn’t cover their operations |
Any idea what are Eastern's plans for the ERJ 145 once the Paris - Rodez service ends next weekend ?
|
Eastern
Eastern down to 4 41s. JA/JB/JD/JL.
JY has just been scrapped. No word yet on JU/JZ which are at cranfield. SK which is in rodez is purportedly going into LBA once the last flights have been flown. |
What is up with MAJT?
Currently in HUY |
Eastern Airways are set to re-acquire Embraer 170 this month and add a further 3x larger Embraer 190s later this year.

https://www.harrogate-news.co.uk/202...eeds-bradford/ Here we go again. Didn’t work last time, can’t see it working again. |
why not? New owner, who when owned before with his partner had a profitable business.
|
Pure speculation but could it not be to replace Flybe on critical routes? Timing seems a little to much coincidence.
|
very much coincidence given Eastern wouldn't have know exact BE finances or know outcome of potential rescue plan?
