Sterling Livery
 

Have noticed that some of the ex-Maersk a/c have been repainted into Sterling livery. However now carry Sterling.eu titles on the tail also and not the 2 hearts. The most recent a/c to be painted OY-MRJ has Sterling.com titles. Does anyone know what is going on with their livery?

They have a/c with Sterling.eu, Sterling.com, Sterling.dk and Sterlingticket.com!

Seems like an identity crisis!

Where are the Fischer B737?
 

OK-FAN, OK-FUN

The aircraft had been parked since 10/05 in PRG, have been towed away now. For what? any ideas? Maybe for the Seagle Air operation out of PRG?

cheers IP.

Air Arran 146
 

Does anyone know if a 146 is operating on behalf of Aer Arann? A m8 said he spotted a 146 operating the ORK from BRS.

Yes Its spanish registered

"Yes Its spanish registered"
 

Ec-jvj. Bae 146-300

EC-JVJ
 

It's operated by a spanish company from Madrid called orionair, web addresd orionair.es

I flew Kerry/Dublin last Tuesday morning on board this machine. In the WC it had Ansett Australia branding! So that tells a tail about where its been. It was a nice plane but there was limited leg room!

Overall they were good. The crew were all Spanish (or from Orionair except 1 cabin crew who was Aer Arann employed). THere was at least 80 on board the flight, and Re were using a bigger plane due to the demand that was as a result of a conference in Killarney on the previous day. Well that was part of it!

Going down it on the Sunday (last Sunday) was an ATR72 which was full.

I think Kerry Dublin does ok, not surprising Ryanair want onto the route!

Thank you very much for all your info. Does anybody know how long it is to be wet leased for?

How many a/c do RE have wet leased at the moment? Is this due to technical issues as well as leasing EIREL to a finnish carrier?

Fleet question about bmi
 

Can someone tell me about the bmi mainline fleet:
How many A319s A320s and A321s there are?
How come the repainting of the BMED planes takes so long?
Is it right that the A321s that were on order for BMED will still
be taken on by bmi when they are ready?

Just curious, Thanks for info !

From memory we have the following;

A321 7
A320 13
A319 11
A330 3

The ex BMED a/c will be painted as and when they go in for maintenance (normally C checks)

And yes, the a/c on order for BMED will be taken on by bmi

Aer Arann seem to have swopped the aircraft on Lease in Finland. EI-REM left Cork for Helsinki on Saturday Afternoon while EI-REL arrived back in Cork from Helsinki on Saturday night.

Was on EI-REL on Friday and the cabin crew mentioned that the plane would be swapped on Saturday. Crew seemed to be enjoying flying the internal Finnish flights.
