Well, if...IF...this airplane was a Swift Air wet lease, they might be. They apparently do have a European operation. As usual, maybe people ought to wait for the official determination and details on this particular event.

Here's more than you'd ever want to know about Swift. See post #471:

Our standards are perfection only, and when one of us doesn't live up to that it reflects poorly on all of us. Shame, shame, shame. How will the US ever hold its head high again?
