Question

Have NEA started operating an aircraft again? I heard a "Netax" callsign on the R/T departing MAN today (20th) around midday.

Manufacturer: LEARJET INC
Type: LEARJET 45
Serial No.: 45-2007
Mode S (hex): 400D38

This is the official info on the a/c.

What's the difference between a Lear 45 and a 40?

The Lear 45 has 8 passenger seats, the Lear 40 has 6.
The Lear 40 is also has slightly less range.
Both are a common type with regard to training.

Official numbers from Lear between 1680NM-2000NM. 40 shorter range than 45.

AWR - thanks for the info, you're right - it is G-MOOO. I saw it again today a couple of times. Somebody said it was doing training at Woodford or something.

BTW congratulations to Mr. Antrobus!

Could anyone advise me whether Northern Exec recruit their own cabin crew.

Or some of you fellas must know any private airlines that are taking on cabin crew.

Thanks in advance.

Chief Pilot

Has NEA's chief pilot learnt to differentiate between runway edge lights and centre lights yet ?

I would like to congratulate David Antrobus on his O.B.E. If anyone deserved that for his services to aviation and generally being a very good and loyal employer, it is he. Without Mr Antorbus, his operations team would have had no job to go to, including those that were taken in during their summer holidays every year to do nothing behind the desk other than look on the internet and get paid for it!!!!!!!!!! The other side, we hear little about the company that employs you! As for batting for the right team, that was always debatable!!!!!!
As for the good team that works there, there are a few that are not even worth mentioning due to their constant whining and lack of loyalty throughout the years. Maybe I am a little unfair with regards to a couple who loved their jobs and the company they worked for.

Sounds from the last posting that NEA are having bad luck with Chief Pilots again. There was only one good one and he was the last one.

All my love
Puck
