these are the standard aircraft with flynet, i think. the focker is a training aircraft used by some of us when we started at cbfs and as such get people used to the system with a very easy and forgiving aircraft.
see what results we would get if you had a comet, vc10 or some thing else first time. :think: i see that those aircraft are used less and less as we grow.

i mean the fockers are used less and less. sorry i've just read my last note and it was slightly misleading.

I put it to John to lease out the majority of the F-100 fleet so that we get some money over a long term instead of just lump sum.

DAN, why don't you join me with the comet, i will give you a fright of your life, my passengers were shouting for joy on my last trip. :think: that's what my cabin crew said as they tried to nail the cockpit door shut.
once in the air she fly's like a dream, landing can be entertaining, too slow and she drops like a brick. no warning.

still living must be doing something right. :lol:
