I tried today getting a back copy of the Flight Int World Airline Directory for Europe. They are all sold out though. Who has a copy and could give me either send a copy (will pay for copies and postage) or give me following info about FUTURA INTERNACIONAL (fleet, contact number, bases, owner)? Many thanks

sorry, this is all i found in the www:

Based in Palma, Majorca, Futura International Airways operates its 172-seat Boeing 737-400's twice weekly in the busiest summer months, from Tenerife and Mahon, Menorca for First Choice and Thomson. The latter was a new destination added for First Choice in 1999. In the past Futura has operated to a variety of destinations in the winter months which it will probably do again in 00/01. Winter 1999/00 saw operation of the new 737-800 aircraft, it seems though that summer services ex-HUY have been allocated to the similar sized but older -400. It is, however, unlikely that the the new variant wont make an appearance at some time during the season. In keeping with its competitors a much more modern corporate identity was launched in 1999, with the arrival of the 737-800's. Futura flights carry the FH/FUA code with simply 'Futura' as the callsign.
