There's been two DAS movements at MSE this past week. One departure after maint and one arrival.

CAA obviously must've granted them permisson for the movements.

The movements ex-MSE were for MX.

Only for a short while! Expect official news in Feb, bl@@dy EU decisions take so long :ugh:

From the FAA website it appears 5X BON and DAS have made there way back onto the American register Also N402JR has been registered with a new owner as N450ML. Along with an engine for sale at the TMW works in England.
So looks like it could be a long road to recovery for DAS if the ban is lifted and that could be a big if :ugh:

Engineer,
Are those a further reduction in the fleet, or are those original aircraft handed back before the ban was introduced.

Twitcher 26th December 2006 08:45

N402JR that became N450ML is now owned by Avient. 5X-DAS is returned to the leasing company but DAS have priority to get it back if/when things are back to normal. DAS may well be selling some engines as they have too many now for the fleet! Keep watching for news on the ban.

N402JR that became N450ML is now owned by Avient
N401JR (Ser No 46590) ended up at Avient in August this year.
N402JR now N450ML is with Miami Leasing Inc, hence the ML in the registration. This company all ready lease DC10s to Arrow Air, may be the aircraft is destined for them as a replacement for this one :\
Fj1 DAS must be down to it last three aircraft. But there appears to be movement on 5XJOS/N400JR with a company called Airspeed Investment taking an interest :rolleyes:
Wonder what will come first EU ban lifted or another aircraft returned to the bank.:=
May be some one can spread light on what caused the sudden misfortunes of this company. Is there some truth that it was the result of a marital dispute :{

Twitcher 26th December 2006 23:07

Apologies, it was indeed '401' that went to avient. JOS, JOE and ROY continue to fly for DAS at present.
Sudden misfortune all comes down to a Dutchman :mad:

Das Air
 
According their fleet schedule the 5X-ROY is at MSE for an A check and the 5X-JOS will arrive tdy 27th
at MSE for an A check..5X-DAS at CGK for an C check so only the 5X-JOE is
flying around for the rest is
N601GC from Gemini flying for them:)

Engineer 27th December 2006 04:37

With 5X-DAS (now registered as N65SS) at CGX under going C Check then Finova must have a potential market for this aircraft along with the two engines for sale.
Rumour (true or not) is that the monthly leasing cost is around $100,000 per month. :ok: May be it is going here in February.
A Dutchman :suspect: responsible for the company demise sounds like an Austin Powers movie :D

EGMH 4th January 2007 17:25

5X-JOS is due to depart to Southern California Logistics Airport tomorrow(KVCV) from MSE obviously for storage. Another one bites the dust....
