Civilian Aviation

As the weather forecast for this part of the world for the rest of the week is cloudy at best, wet wet wet at worst, some shots taken this evening when the sun was out (well, most of the time).

Great shots, I do like the first one of the Fa7X

I take it the Jetstream31 is operating for Eastern?

Thanks Martin.
My understanding is that J41 G-MAJK, the only one I've seen in Flybe colours, is still an Eastern Airways aircraft; it's likely been repainted to advertise the Flybe/Eastern tie-up, and it will be interesting to see if any of the Flybe aircraft are 'rebranded' in Eastern colours. The situation here at Aberdeen/Dyce, where Eastern, Flybe and Loganair aircraft are a familiar sight, is that Eastern aircraft can be seen in at least five different schemes; Flybe have at least two schemes; and Loganair aircraft can be seen in at least four (possibly five) schemes, including (still) the Flybe colours as seen above on Saab 340 G-LGNI. Happy days!

All the best,

Martin,

Sorry, got the wrong end of the stick re. your question - forgot that I'd posted the pic of J31 PH-FCI! All I know is that it's registered to AIS Airlines of Lelystad, and I saw it again arriving at Aberdeen/Dyce early evening yesterday. You may well be right about it having been brought in for use by Eastern (it certainly parked over in their gates area), but I can't say for sure at the moment.

Hi Guys..

Yeah the AIS Jetstream is operating for Eastern Airways on the Aberdeen-Durham Tees Valley schedules this week.. but going to operate from Newcastle next week?? how long for though and where to, not too sure..
