Grrr

I stand to be corrected, but the last (only) Metroliner on the UK register has been sold by Air Atlantique or whatever they are now called.

North Flying (of Denmark) have one currently based at Coventry

Also, various German & Spanish companies own them & these are frequent visitors to the UK on both cargo & passenger flights

They also have one based at ABZ for the mail run to Orkney and Shetland.

BenAir also have one here too.

Stu, re the ABZ Metros:

Is the Benair one not a North Flying one leased to them? Or do Benair have Metros of their own?

I always thought there was some sort of connection between the two operators but may be wrong.
