Re: Interesting Movements 2025

Last couple of days there have been 5 MC-12W liberties passing through. I think all had a USAF air force serial apart from one, which had a civilian reg. I was wondering why these didnt route via PIK as they have done in the past. Have our new managers adopted a more aggressive approach and have ma...

Re: JET 2- Edinburgh/Turin/Edinburgh

Not just the Doha flights. The AIR bus is also mobbed after the Turkish, Sun Express and Pegasus flights arrive. Well hopefully the SunExpress will at least be resolved with them starting this summer. TK would seem to be an open goal given they've stated they want to fly to GLA, but AGS seemingly h...

Re: GLA Sold

I'm just glad AGS are gone. They need to get rid of all the previous management too and start from scratch. I'm sure they'll have their own top dogs ready and waiting. Also, hopefully they'll not manage the three airports as a 'group' and develop each one with autonomy, or sell off ABZ and SOU and ...

I know PIK has it's detractors but you can't beat it for variety of aircraft movements. In the last 2 days, a couple of shortish visits revealed the following: Big stuff C17, C130H, C130J, P8, A332, A320, B738, A321N, B762 Wee stuff PC12, TBM960 Biz CL350, Gulfstream V Heligowobblies AW189, AW109 A...
