Eos 757 at STN??
 

Good Evening,
Just returned from Stansted and what did i find on the north side of the airfield? But the one and only Eos Boeing 757 sat there all closed up. Strange i thought...The flight usually departs back to JFK around 11am!

I wonder if they have gone bust and STN have grounded it here! haha!

That plane is always there. Its there as a standby incase the other plane has any problems.

Correction
 

Ah, seems as though they are not bust at all. I hear they have three aircraft now and they have changed the schedule. Arriving STN in the morning, must be shut up over there, then departs in the evening.

They have (gasp) changed their schedule. Imagine! A carrier changing a schedule! :rolleyes:

A rather more innocent explanation than:

Airline failures are sometimes predictable but never really a source of humour. I doubt that you've ever experienced one if you see it as funny.

I have no connection to Eos and I still have some doubts about their business model. I hope they succeed, but if they fail I won't be laughing - they will deserve credit for having tried.

I think your "haha!" is in poor taste...

they have 3 aircraft in total

N401JS
N403JS
N926JS

they keep one at stn in the event the i/b acft diverts or they get a severe tech delay.

i would actually say some thought has gone into it if you think about it!

Don’t think they are allowed to fly CAT 3 approaches yet as they are a frequent visitor to Luton on foggy days at Stansted.

My laugh was only light hearted. If indeed they did fail many PPRuNer's would say "told you so!".

The world would be a awful place if people didn't try new idea's, whilst I may have my doubt's I won't be saying "told you so" IF Eos don't make it!
