Loganair

I've seen G-HIAL getting used for training flights on FR24.

Given the internal reconfig, could it be used for getting PPE etc to Barra in addition to the daily scheduled flights or is it solely to be used as a standby air ambulance.

As far as I am aware G-HIAL is still configured for COVID-19 patient transfers from specifically Barra

GLA-EXT not starting until 2021 now either

From the sounds DUS will be lucky to return.

Glad to hear Loganair are secure for the future though, when things do return to a new normal it will be interesting to see what a world without Flybe and a larger Loganair will look like. It epcertain,y sounds as if Belfast City could be a medium term prospect for Loganair.

Interesting that around 32:40 he reels off a number of airports that have been supportive, but no mention of EDI. I wonder which airport he's talking about at 33:10? In talking about that airport he refers to the main corporate user of the route announcing major redundancies - I wonder if it was EMA as presumably Roll-Royce were the main corporate user of GLA<>EMA?

[Gla1]

I had assumed EMA aswell.

Southampton now seems to be flying daily, as a GLA/EDI split load, using an E145. And the Isle of Man - London service is now back to London City, after a couple of months at Heathrow.

Very sad to read that but then is there an industry/sector that's immune from this Covid shit? Gonna be a bleak winter ahead for sure and possibly an equally bleak summer 2021.Bat-shit crazy time to be alive(no pun intended).
