Hi embraernotworthy,
I realised soon after posting that there were 4 Dash8-Q400s, operating our flights to EDI, GCI/JER, CDG and MAN first thing in the morning. Last time I noted it was 3 dash's, 1 B737 and a Bae 146-300 but that has all changed now :)
The de-icing will be completed based on departure time, your correct. However, for example currently on Tuesdays there are 3 flights departing at 0700. I think what WATABENCH is trying to say is that BE would be given priority (or at least we expect they would) as they are loyal to the airport and are the largest operator.
its nice to hear from you though - I havn't been here long and to be honest, this is the only forum (Airlines, Airports and Routes) which I will be posting on.......(much nicer people on this thread too!) Any info you have (in addition to what has already been said) with regards to Summer 2007 will be very much appreciated!

Malpensa Flights
 

Anyone got any idea what the two Malpensa departures are for and what the a/c are?

14MAR07 1900 BV835 MALPENSA
14MAR07 1945 LM5508 MALPENSA

According to the airline code website, the first one is Blue Panorama and the second is Livingstone/Lauda Italy

Thanks

Livingston A321 I-LIVB & Blue Panorama B752 EI-DKL. Operating on behalf of the MOD.

Thanks for that - do you know if and when they will be returning back to EXT?

No idea I'm afraid. I didn't know these two were coming until they turned up!

I see BE are planning to use the E95 on their Norwich route, this seems bizarre:bored:

Regards

Mike

This happens at the moment twice a week to fit the rotations. It is not a capacity issue.

Flybeeeee - No expectation of the 2 a/c returning. Shame it made a nice change on the apron:ok:

The e195 will normally operate something like ext-agp agp-nwi nwi-ext & return same with other spain destinations.
Seems logical to generate at least a bit of revenue by crew operating back to base instead of taxying

Good to see. Look forward to Rennes and Nice flights starting in May.

any news about a new operator coming down to exeter now that the airport has new owners?

Can someone confirm to me , that Summer Wednesday's now involve 2x Toronto flights? The regular Air Transat A310 service to Pearson (YYZ) via BHX along with what I can only assume is a B763 direct with FlyGlobespan to Hamilton (YHM)? Both landing within 2 hours of each other?

Love Exeter to bits - used to be a ramp guy there, but man alive, that'll be a day to avoid flying from this already heavily cramped airport.

Would make the airfield ops day a bit tricky too allocating parking stands if they both turned up together, let alone having enough equipment and manpower to deal with it all. :ooh:

Where will they park all the Flybe's.......?

Timings of the two Wednesday Toronto services are scheduled to be...

In Out From To
Flyglobespan B752 08:25 - 09:05 Hamilton/Stansted
Air Transat A310 10:10 - 12:00 Pearson/Pearson
Flyglobespan B752 12:40 - 13:20 Stansted/Hamilton

There is an Onur Air A321 scheduled for 09:00 - 10:00 as well!

So what your saying EGTE is that the FlyGlobespan is infact a YHM-EXT-STN-EXT-YHM service?

As its only a B752, that makes it a little easier to accomodate them all!

Scheduled Onur Air A321? Antalaya, Bodrum, or Dalaman?

Indeed it is.
The Onur Air is a Bodrum service.

Quite a few more FCA flights for summer 08 new services to IBZ and PMI

Is looking like some form of a based aircraft with early out of EXT on several days of the week.

Mike

Would be nice but FCA wouldnt base an aircraft in the summer and only use it for 1 rotation a day, I suspect it could be a shared a/c of some sort with another base doing W patterns, will have to check out the return flight times, that'll give indication.

No based a/c for summer 08 from FCA. First Choice have put the flight times on their website the wrong way round, so still only W patterns, as with this year.

MIke

Finally!
 

FCA today announced that EXT is their new year round base, 1 320 to be based from november with the loss of FCA bases in LTN and CWL

oops, my bad:\

sorry people

Regards

Mike
