BA Cargo may move to Manston
Following months of rumours, an Atlas 747 made a BA proving flight into Manston on 15th Feb: apparently all went well.
Any info on how things are progressing?

I understand EMA might stand a good chance aswell....
However, I dont think the whole of the BA contract will move out of Stansted. Rumour at the moment is that GSS are after two classics and those are the ones which will be based elsewhere.
Dont believe anything till you see it on the ramp though!

Atlas 747 at Maston
Guys,
I think you will find that that Atlas machine was at Manston for parking, as it was when Chinese New Year was on and the many carriers suspended freighter flights to China, so there was little use for the aircraft during that period.
