Did you end up getting enough time to have a squizz, Dave?

Looks like a glut of B717s coming on to the market.

Aerolines de Baleares (AeBal) which operates from the island of Palma de Mallorca in the Med will be returning 5 B717s to the lessor and Midwest will be returning 16 to Boeing and replacing them with 12 ERJ-170s.

Boy do those birds get a workout in Hawaii.

Non-stop use pretty much all day with 30 min turnarounds!

This thing as a Richmond for about a week getting painted. Went to take off on Thursday but smoke was seen out of the left engine so they shut down and parked it up for the day . Took off on Friday

It hasn't left Adelaide as far as I'm aware. Last Saturday it was placed inside the NJS hanger. Sunday it was back out, basking in the sun. It had it's tail rudder missing, so I doubt it was going anywhere fast.

I think it is leaving at the end of this month when it has had a new interior fitted.
