Post BMI A332

Sorry if this has already been answered in another thread, but here goes.

SAS operated a "damp" leased A332 on the CPH-EWR-CPH run until fairly recently. Then it sat outside a hangar for a couple of weeks, probably feeling lonely, and has now left CPH for good.

The question now beckons: With the slump in transatlantic traffic, what is this (or these) A332's doing for BMI ?

Cheers

G-WWBD has been sat at Manchester for the past few weeks - for the past two days it has been operating the MAN-IAD route.

ROT,

Thank you for the information. Incidentially, wasn't WWBD at one point supposed to be utilised by SAS when they started CPH-IAD ?

Good job they had 'BD' at MAN as I believe a
new Trent for 'BM' won't be available until later this week and the flights are full at the moment.

Cool

What happened to BM for it to require a new engine?

Once bmi get permission to fly transatlantic from LHR the third plane will be used for this.
