Electra Spotting

Evening Gents,

Any ideas of where I can find a list of the daily Atlantic airlines movements for the L-188?

Thanks in advance.

Without meaning to be putting you down, giving Atlantic Airlines a ring would probably do it.

Usually early morning ones in Liverpool from Liege and likewise at Cardiff? Roughly around 0400-0500 I think.

I think Electras can also be found late evening at Bournemouth and they also fly at Prague and in Austria.

Don't know how long they'll last as the ATPs are introduced.

There are sightings of them occasionally doing a few circuits at Donningley.

Go here :

http://www.acarsd.org/acars_search.html

enter registration of G-LOF% (which I believe covers all the Electras), set Today to "Full Database" and you will get the complete programme. Play with the options for a few minutes for the one that is best for you.

G-FIZU was certainly an Electra until at least very recently.

G-Info will let you know which machines and regs are still flying.

No Electra's in Cardiff anymore. TNT send in a 146 these days or split with another airport if there's fleet problems, which is increasingly happening.
