Grrr

Wish we could have a sticky describing the difference between a hangar and a hangar. Particularly annoying when the culprits are aviation professionals or enthusiasts. You would think they would know better.

I think ZM was having its centre tank fuel pumps modified (so they shut off when the tank is empty)

G-BYAD

G-BYAD was flown to Bangor but is going for good - to Fedex. Not just a winter lease.

HTH,
Dave

BYAD came in to LTN, on the 12th November (Thurs) with titles removed, only the blue paint of TOM remaining. Looks like it was in for final checks and salvage for what can be reused and fitting any additional equitpment for the ferry on the Monday.

I believe it may of came in from LGW as it was on a Thomson 9*** callsign and from the calls it seemed to be vectored all the way down.

Thanks
Ben Leonard
