A couple of colleagues had been in touch with him and he is indeed taking a break. That doesn't stop the speculation about what he's going to do next though. It will certainly be something!

TB isn't equipped with the steep approach kit for LCY. If it appears in IOM, it's because of an on-the-day operational need and won't be there long. Of the new ATR72-600s you probably won't see...

Are you getting your Peters mixed up? If this one has been involved on a day-to-day basis then it's certainly been kept very well hidden for as long as that's been happening.

Departure off R20 is obstacle limited with five trees fairly close-in requiring an emergency turn even for an ATR72. The new performance with the starter strip is a big improvement.
