They had initially reserved D-regs as well for the A300s...

My bet is that the EAT 757's will get a G-reg. This because of the requirement to get the aircraft cat 3 asap.

Oh, I remember Air Bridge Carriers operating Armstrong Whitworth Argosy aircraft back in the 1970s. What a sight! What a sound! Cue wave of nostalgia.....

That is what he meant!

Air Contractors was ABR in the 70's and still uses ABR as 3-letter code.

Air Bridge Carriers, became Hunting Cargo Airlines, became Air Contractors.

There was also Sagittair before Air Bridge but I'm not sure if they were related other than via the AW Argosies that came from Universal in the USA.
