hi darren, thank for a very swift response, as i am going to montego bay to pick up a cruise, disembarking at mallorca to fly to bmx from there, does that affect the aircraft that you have mentioned.
also what is or are wonglets, i am a bit naive on this.
thanks alan

I'm not sure on the reliabilty of this source, but it's suggested repairs to the aircraft grounded due to the landing incident in Bristol at the beginning of October (G-OOBK) are now complete. The aircraft is said to be being painted and is expected to make a test flight and be ferried from BRS to LGW on 8th December, to resume schedules on 9th December.

If I get any more information to confirm or dismiss this, I'll report further.

Thanks for the update...hope your source is correct for me and the possible others it may affect.

Painted? As in little touch ups or full TUI make over? (if so, first FCA 767 to go blue?!)

The FCA 767's aren't being repainted as they are due to be replaced by the 787 when (if) it eventually appears ;)

A little birdie tells me that G-OOBK landed at Gatwick this morning just after 10:00 following completion of the repairs. How quickly it is back in service is another matter, but things are certainly looking better for those on long-haul flights later in December!

Cheers,
Ralph
