I heard they got some investment, albeit later than planned.

The 767, of course, was for the winter only. The 757 is going to be leased out, so not sure when or if they will become airborne in their own right. 757 will be gone from Manchester very soon. Most of the staff scattered to the four winds.

Watch this space

You appear to know alot...how is this????

Anyway, AV8 is still unknown i.e what is going to happen

But the airline will not last if certain people keep "pulling the strings"

Good look to all the AV8 people because they deserve better

Cheers

Hamrah.
You of all people l thought would know why it was at Southend.
As l understand it, it is going in for painting, so unless it comes out all white, l think it will have some stars painted on it.
Hope that is a big enough clue for you and Danny.

Mr @,
Yes it will have stars painted on it but only for a couple of months until it returns to AV8. It will then fly CT2 Pax

Yes I had heard that August is what they are driving towards.
Seems an expensive paint job for only a few months.
Hope they make it work.

You are quite correct - B757 due back in July - £6m cash injection from a private investor!

Good luck to all - hope you all get your jobs back.:ok:
