I heard someone at LGW today saying that one of their B744's - GVROM- has gone on lease to a Bolivian airline. Can anyone from VS Towers shed any light on thsi? How long is it gone for?

Thanks

Correct, just to add - G-VROM has gone to Bolivian airline/company Aerosur.

Is this a charter for the winter or has it left the fleet permanently?

[tspark]

Is it a wet or dry lease (or a sale !) ?

On that subject I haven't seen VGOA around much lately. Have they flogged that one off as well?
