Thanks once again! :drinkers:

The Merchantman routes will be my regulars if the boss allows it
:wink: :lol:

I'm glad most of them are fairly short, I was worried about not being able to to give enough time but I'll be able to fly all of them and pick up my 'real-time' bonus :dance:

Just a quick thought that sprung to mind, will we also be doing the bucket and spade spanish flights, using the 1-11 etc. Remember the Costa Del Sol, two weeks, all in for £38! :shock:
Onwards and Upwards!!!!!!!!

I suggested that earlier in the thread Jetty - the 1-11 is excellent for it
but it seemed to have fallen on deaf ears - or maybe its because I
neglected to use ICAO Airport address's either way I just took the
old Dan Air 1-11 summer routings and moved them for EGGW to
EGSS :roll:

Garry,

In that period I was a First Officer on the S-111 on the German Internals, operating mostly out of Berlin, Templehof and flying the Corridors. After four or five day tours based in Berlin, we mostly positioned as passengers back from Berlin to London and this meant that we had the same duty free allowance as the other pax...After the two years, my sideboard and other cupboards were filled to bursting with bottles of good stuff :dance:

I flew every one of the German Internal routes if you would like those listed as well? Bear in mind that you were not allowed above 10,000 feet in the Corridors so you are IN the weather :smile:

Thanks for that Peter

I was just curious as it sees often when you read pilots careers they right seat a type then go to another type then return to the left seat.
