Talking to someone in the know yesterday, the aircraft is expected to be out for about 3 months, and are using Vincent Aviation AND Air National AND a Dash8(Sunday evenings only) to help out while the B1900 is being repaired. This is the second wheels up landing that I've witnessed at WB

well if this thing is going to be repaired rather than turned into tui cans...then the damage looks worse than it really is????
flew the A/B models.... I know they can take a bit of a pounding.... be interested to hear from the jokers that take the first flight to see how "twisted" she really is...

According to the internal Friday Flyer recently, EAK has been checked and passed on her alignment and is expected back on the line mid-late august.

Sir Pratt, has the GM-elect traced those photo's back to you yet?? A very subtle dig about un-authorised picture posting and blogging the previous friday flyer... have the hounds picked up the scent???
