SkyWest A320

[listentome]

FNP will be back tomorrow, as planned...ever heard of scheduled maintenance

[Busboy92]

Not sure that "scheduled maintenance" includes bashing the engine into the hangar door. Anyway, i thought the scheduled C-Check was in November?

[dodgybrothers]

into a hangar door? get new sources

[VH-UFO]

So was it the scheduled 'C' check?

I know a lot of people at Cloudbreak were getting Pis*&ed off with the delays caused by FNP's breakdowns.

Re Strategic, they wouldnt have the fleet to cope with Cloudbreaks traffic volume would they?

[Led Zeppelin]

Even if Strategic had an aircraft, are they really in a financial position to survive ?

[airdualbleedfault]

I believe there is a QF subsidiary getting 10 x 100 seat jets, I also believe that subsidiary's contracts are being sourced by Mr. Forests best mate, you do the math....FF points anyone ?
A friend of mine at Skywest tells me the hangar queen won't be getting a hangar partner anytime soon

[MkII]

FNP was sent to MEL AOG for an O/Speed fault, not exactly what I would call scheduled maintenance. It was then ran into a set of entry stairs and had the intake cowl damaged.

The opportunity was taken to complete an A Check, but the C Check wasn't even looked at...

Cheers,

Havent seen it at Cloudbreak for a while.

Whats wrong with it now?

[XRlent320]

UFO, haven't you heard? According to the Network Staff they've won the FMG contract so the bus is no longer required.....

[listentome]

It's in MEL

[QFdude]

.......and some for Q between PHE and KTA.

[Arthur Boy]

Network won FMG, and how, prey tell, are they gonna operate that baby with 3 or 4 F100's? Borrow an A380 from Mummy?

[airdualbleedfault]

Oh I dont know Arthur, but with 10 F100s coming soon, the FMG contract extended to Skywest for another 6 months, some casual use of the 61x737s mummy and daddy own, I'm sure they will cope
(and I believe No5 F100 arriving in 2 weeks closely followed by 6)

[falconx]

whats the goss on the latest with the old girl 320?

[airdualbleedfault]

Arthur, hello, Arthur ?

[shirjoc]

Been away for a while. reckoned that the dependance on the old girl would eventually bring XR unstuck. Such is life. I am not sure that I believe it but have heard that QF have brought Alliance as well as Network, any info anywhere??. May well find out when I front up to the QF terminal to go back to Cloudbreak next Wed. As with falcon x, where is the old girl?

[topend3]

QF have brought Alliance as well as Network, any info anywhere??

I think whoever told you that may be bull****ting you

[ASY68]

Network, yes(90% sure), alliance no, just leasing some of their aircraft for services.

[XRlent320]

The old girl's getting it's GPS fitted in Singapore and should be back shortly. What to do, not sure? But I guess we'll find out soon.

[airdualbleedfault]

Network 90% sure

I have a friend at Network who has a QF staff number and QF staff travel, I think he's 100% sure
