Re: BAC 1-11

Does anyone remember Euroscot Express they flew from Bournemouth to EDI and GLA in the late nineties using BAC 1-11s. Engines were modified to reduce the noise and meet the current at that time regs.. thought I had a photo but can’t find it. Must admit I thought that it was the early noughties that ...

Re: BAC 1-11

Most recent flight on a BAC1-11 was in 2000 a late booking on NationwideAir in South Africa. Decided I didn’t fancy driving from Durban to Johannesburg as I had already driven quite a few thousand kilometers in the previous 3 weeks. To my surprise it was a very pleasant experience and very quiet, no...

Re: Summer 2022 Delays/Disruption

Security is fine at EDI it’s the checking in system that is not up to the job and causing the delays. Not a fan of the changes made at EDI and not enough room for all the people in the check in area with baggage or just trying to get to security through the crush. Next flight is out of GLA so will s...

Re: TUI Airways Summer 2023 as of 6th November 2021

My son is booked for next year but the cost of renting a car there compared to other Orlando airports is astronomical. He has considered renting a car just for a day and doing a second rental in Kissimmee. H...
