Niknak,

I agree with your comments but can't see why this would be a problem for Ryanair since they shun airports like Schiphol. If another loco..Easyjet/BMIbaby etc came to HUY they might deem...

KLM had 10 B747-200s(3 passenger & 7 combis) modified at Boeing. These were done between late 1984 and March 1986. Two a/c were also modified for UTA(a/c now with Air France).

I would scrap all of them. Having flown KLMcityhopper many times, I think the F50s are slow, noisy and outdated. Having said that, all a/c should have jet engines imo.

Very unlikely imo; A319 fleet to be expanded to Gatwick is the only rumour I've heard. Likely that some displaced B737s(500/300s) could go to BHX/MAN.

MEFLYBE,

Thanks for the info; RHO looks like a new destination?. Flights to PFO seem to have been dropped and LCA reduced. 34 flights seems very good though especially as 4 are on B767s.
