FlyBe BHX Base

Hello there!

Could anyone please tell me what routes to expect when flying out of BHX on FlyBe's Q400s?

Did not manage to figure this out from their website.

Thank you.

Pretty much all routes ex BHX are within Q400 range and gradually as the E145's are retired and replaced by Q400's its likely that more routes will transfer to the Q400.

You have JER/GCI/NQY/IOM/BHD/GLA/EDI/INV/ABZ + BES/LRH/EGC/CMF/CDG/BRN/DUS/HAJ/HAM

FRA/MXP and STR tend to be E145 domain but this will change overtime.

Hope this helps!

If your are an FO on the dash expect plenty of standbys, as a lot of the captains are line trainers.

enjoy BHX , good bunch of girls and guys.

1013,

do you mean I'll be very busy on my line training and far more relaxed after the 1st line check?

What kind of roster shall I expect as F/O after the probation period?

Colleagues are indeed a very important part!

I did my line training last summer, on my first ever roster I had 90 block hours!! That is the highest amount of hours I have had to date.

The last couple of months I have had 22 block hours and 28 block hours with loads of home standbys that I have not been called for.

I spoke to crewing to try and get more flights but they said it was due to line training out of BHX.

But from my experience and a few other FO`s at BHX , the rosters have been fairly relaxed.

enjoy!!

I should find myself an odd job to fill in the gaps then!

Thank you 1013 & see in BHX sometime this summer.
