Bye Bye Baby @ Norwich !

Post by keithnewsome » Mon Sep 10, 2012 8:33 pm

A very sad day, I am sure, for many many people .... to see the BMI baby fleet flying into storage ! Even the local sky produced "fifty shades of grey" for the event.

Airframes at Norwich this evening (in order of arrival) :-

G-TOYI "Tinylife Baby"
G-TOYD "Surf's up Baby"
G-TOYH "Baby of the North"
G-ODSK "Dragonfly Baby"
G-BVKB "Jelly Baby"
G-BVZE "Little Costa Baby"
G-OBMP "Robin Hood Baby"
G-TOYL "Rainbow Baby"

A few of the arrivals ..... Keith :(

Yes Kevin, very sad indeed, but I have been reading, on another forum this eveninig, that BA were going to extreme lengths to try to help another airline (maybe Jet2 ?) to integrate BMIbaby into its network ??

Just before we tuck the babies in and kiss them goodnight ! Another view from the other end of the runway, a couple have been moved since day one ! Still waiting for new owners and some TLC ??

Hi John, I have your message and have asked the only person, that I know localy who takes slides, although he was there one arrivals day, unfortunately, he did not take slides !! Should I hear of any other photographers doing such on the day, or in the parking area recently, I will contact you first.

Sorry Keith ;)
