One of their aircraft is flying in this very moment (positioning from LGW to LTN where it will fly some MON flights).

I can add weight to this rumour. A good friend has just been notified whilst in Rhodes that her return flight (tomorrow, booked through Olympic) to BHX will be fulfilled by a different airline...

I understand that Olympic pulled the plug on Strategic operating their flights with immediate effect this morning and were looking at using Livingston for this mornings Heraklion from MAN, just wasn't sure if they'd gone bust or not...

Thanks for clearing it up, I hope they can stay afloat despite the contract loss.

Came back from JSI to LGW last night on Livingstone A320 as JN2517 not STU2517. Have to say that it was far better operated and even landed 1hr early!

I think Strategic have gone bump now?

The other night I saw one of their aircraft on remote at MAN with a tractor behind it and another one impounded on Faireys Apron by TCX Engineering.
