737-200s are illegal in Europe these days, along with non-re-engined 727s and 707s, and probably standard DC9s as well.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

:cheers:

no, they were retired about 6 years ago, following endless technical and reliability problems.
then they were replaced with a leased A330, but the aircraft was deemed to large and mostly flew with less then half capacity.

last year they decided to replace the A330 with this A321 (ex-Onur Air, leased via HiFly).
it entered service about 2 months ago  :mellow:

the 2 A310's are still in storage at melsbroek AB (Brussels Airport) pending sale.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Over our new place west of Leominster (Herefordshire) a very low level Hercules.......Possibly playing games with the chaps from Stirling Lines at Credenhill.

Me, I'm dishonest, and you can always trust a dishonest man to be dishonest.
Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to watch out for!!!

Cool! :ph34r:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Indeed there is something different about that F.27s engine nacelles that's cos they're PW's of some sort as it's not an F.27 but a F.50 (modernized F.27)

The British have raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved". Soon though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross". Londoners have not been "A Bit Cross" since the Blitz in 1940 when tea supplies ran out for three weeks
