ThomsonFly 757 question

Hi guys. Thought I would check out this forum for a bit of help... no doubt someone will know. Apologies to everyone if this is a bit of a sad question...

I was wondering if G-BYAN was still in service with ThomsonFly, and where she is based? She was the aeroplane I had my first flight in (July 1996, if I recall correctly), Glasgow - Palma (Majorca), and it started off my lifelong fascination in flying. It was Britannia Airways back then... kind of amazing to think I was only 9 years old at the time. Seems so long ago!

Anyways, I am just interested... saw some old holiday snaps the other day and it got me thinking.

Cheers

Hi yes AN is still with us but where its based i dont know could be anywhere!

[Gertcha]

I fly on her just less than a month ago, LGW-FUE. i take it that doesn't mean she's based at LGW though.

Thanks mate. Good to hear it's still in service. Is it still in good condition? Think it was only a couple of years old when I was on it.

P.S. With reference to the MyTravel question above... I flew on ERAA to Tenerife in October. Nice aeroplane, but I still prefer Boeings

Hello all,

Could anyone that knows please tell me how Monarch have based their A320 and A321's for next year? (Between LGW, LTN, BHX, MAN).

Many thanks,

If this is any help, but I'm sure that BHX will be 4 A321's next summer.

Thank you.

Anyone know about MAN?

L Met

[tangocharlie]

MAN - 3 x A321; 3 x A320. Bound to change though....

[mmeteesside]

Should be an A320 based in EDI again!?

[Vicarious]

How come you're so curious, LondonMet?

A320 on ZB routes, EDI will be a B757, as the B757s will all be back in charter config for the summer.

i noticed that the Monarch 767 was diverted into NCL today from MME on a trooping charter how long has it been doing that for?

[Mr @ Spotty M]

lukeylad
The A300, A330 & B767 have been doing trooping charters on and off for the last two months.

Current fleet is:

G-CCPW - J31
G-PLAJ - J31
OK-UBA - Let 410
D-CLAS - Metro.

The Metro occasionally has been D-CNAG.

Hope that helps

[captainyonder]

What routes are the J31s operating?

[skiddyiom]

Not sure, but I think it's a mix'n'match sort of thing. Whatever is available on the day. I'll make some surrepticious enquiries and find out
