2011 was not a good day for the Swedish operator, City Airline as they ceased operations. Mind you they ended up as part of the DNA of Skyways.

A different trio for todays . This time it’s European built airliners. First we have the 1954 incorporation of Air Inter who operated the less than successful Dassault Mercure. In 2003 Etihad was added to the airlines of the Middle East having commenced services with the Airbus A330-200. Last of the trio is the Saab 340 in the hands of TUS who operated their first flight in 2015.

A lovely little positive trio of 737s for you on Not sure if Stelios really expected the size of the current airline today in 1995 as it was the founding of easyJet We fly on over to Asia for the last two as in 2003 Bangladeshi airline Regent Airways was also founded. 2010 was also the founding year for the last of our trio and I am glad I am writing this not saying it as it’s the Indonesian outfit Sriwijaya Air.

Today we had a visit from Geoffrey "Biggles" Beckett who came down to Runway to fly in our Spitfire simulators!

He received this experience as a birthday present and it was fantastic to see he had such a great session with us! Happy Birthday Geoffrey!

CMDR Gramps was on hand to make sure Geoffrey got the best out of his flight experience in the Spitfire.

Thanks for sharing your day with us and we hope to see you back down at Runway soon!

If someone you know has a birthday coming up, why not get them a gift of a flight experience with us in any of our 737, Vulcan and Spitfire simulators! If you would like to receive a flight experience voucher for your birthday/celebration, tag your friends and family in to let them know!!

To the skies!
