Hi all.

Is UPS going to keep MNG as a contractor???

As far as I heard they are not doing very well.

Both MNG & Air contractors are interested in the aircraft.
Apparently MNG are to lose the Tolouse & the UPS standby.

Exclamation ACL

Air Contractors looks to be a developing company with a stronghold with a number of contracts including Fedex, the UPS contract would make Air Contractors a leading provider of freight in Europe?

I beleive MNG will remain in CGN for a longtime..
2loose flight goes to StarAir next November, this was known and this not a suprise. (They did not get 11 767-200 for fun)
MNG will have 2 new routes, 1 start 1st Nov 2005 and the other 30th July 2005..(watch out guys you will be suprised)

not: STBY MNG contract is up to end of 2007.

Channex A300

If the #4 bus does go elsewhere, best of luck to all the affected Channex A300 crew's & GE's.
Not nice!

Definitely Channexs loss, Wickes gain!

At this rate, Wickes will be leasing them back!

Better get a date set for the first reunion!

I know it's not a decision any of the boys took lightly, but they had their reasons.

Drop me a PM, I'm in Essex real soon.

As for the Spurs, there's always next year, he says, again!

Maxblow,
I did the route for a few years. Just wondered if it was the same, or an additional run.

C of G,

never flew the green ones.

Diabolo,

catIIIa - still a scarry thought! did a few simulated ones in good wx. you wish, pray and cross your fingers that it's spot on!

it's probably a requirement by the customers these days.

-------

crew certification is the least problem. i heard from mx guys that it's fairly expensive to maintain. would be interesting to get
some more info on that from somebody who knows more.
probably a different topic again.
