Heard a rumour monarch may be taking it off their hands in the near future

[TCX69]

Hmm. Not sure why Monarch would be taking it off our hands. Not heard that one. We'' be needing it for the summer!

Thanks, I wondered when it was arriving.

Maybe Monarch will be going for G-MIDC as I think that is supposed to be returned to lessor?

[TCX69]

Yeah sounds more like that would be the case as Monarch have 4 ex-bmi A321's already G-MIDE/J/K/M.

G-MIDC will be with us for the summer season though, it's flat out doing charters, not sure when the LSE is ending.

[captain_flynn]

Thanks for the info TCX69! I think I may of heard on another forum that MIDC is at BMI until next year.
