Passenger tells me that BACE are doing a lot of cancellations at the moment on the Newcastle/Birmingham route. Can anyone advise as to whether this is likel to continue or has the problem been resolved.

Thanks in advance.

Still has not been a Birmingham yet today(1200z) on a MONDAY!!!!!

When will BRT realise what a crap airplane the JS41 is?
I really think the 41 will be the death nail for BRT out of Newcastle.

It would take five plus five spare to work!

I completely agree that the jetstream will sound the deathknell at ncl. Not only has BHx been affected but also dub as well. When you go out to the stand and see the BE dash8's or crj's beside this torrid looking, horrid to travel in, unreliable aircraft, passengers must wonder what they are paying for. i've never experienced bouncing like on the jetstreams. Someone previously said that BACE have a 7 year agreement for these Wrightean efforts, i wonder when did that start and how long is left on it?
Even the highlands and islands get a saab or shorts. How about an atr42/72 or even bring back the d8's..all is forgiven.
