BAE146's at Exeter?

Post by Jetset »

On Monday I had to fly down to Exeter from Manchester for the day. On arriving, I noticed rather a few 146 aircraft parked up to the North West of the airfield. One seemed to be in Northwest Airlines colours. Anybody know the reason why they are there? My thought was that Flybe had got them to add to their fleet.

Flybe have quite a large maintenance set up at Exeter. Whether they are there on maintenance or for transfer, I'm not sure. Though I believe that Flybe are replacing the 146's with EMB-195's.

I think they are in storage there.

As Kevin says the Embraers are comming in now so the 146/RJ fleet will be slowly run down.
