SUNBIRD ?????

[Opsman]

I keep hearing rumours of a new airline starting up at MAN.
Could be called Sunbird, but apart from that i've heard nothing.
Can anyone shed any light on the matter
Thanks

Thanks for that info. Noticed they have an office set up at MAN in the Tower Block.

Was just reading an old flt directors notice today, Sunbird is brand name for Icebird, an icelandic carrier with 2x B733 TFSUN and TFFDA (I think), range given was 5.5hrs .. rather generous. Last year one based at PMI and other at KEF

Cheers Bondy
