From what i have read in te 'media', DAS Air is still banned and several aircraft have been flown to the USA (ret. to lessor ?).

Rumoured only to be operating on the African continent.

Would also welcome details.

The Commission ruling should be out in about a week from now.

As far as I know there are no serious talks of mergers.

Headquarter's wouldn't give detailed info.

Only stating "European ops only out of OST" if Flights to/from Europe will resume.

(OST = Oostende / Belgium)

Bye, Chris.

Heard a rumour that someone was thinking of setting up a DC10 operation out of Manston (MSE). May be DAS is thinking of bouncing back
