Been Yellow and black since they started in 1968 :think:

The 757's are very old now, older than the A.300-600

It was in fact lease to Air Transat and when MON got it back just left it like that I think for a year :think: It might not be a MON livery but it is blue and has MON titles on it and that was my first plane to fly on I was only 9 :dance:

Hmm, fun to read that, I was sent home in a Monarch 757 from Gatwick in the late Nineties, after All Leisure Airlines had ceased to exist during my stay in London! Getting this organised was disastrous at the airport, but the crew was so friendly - they made it all up!

Cheers,

Nick.
