Rather than start a new Thread on Alliance, I have found that Alliance has 1 ATR72 on order. C/n 1421. Does anyone have any news on this?

It's an error.
It should be for Alliance Air in India. https://www.flickr.com/photos/curufi...-79466464@N00/ |
Hi Max Thanks. I thought it was strange getting another type. Dennis

Logical replacement for the Fk50... one day.

Alliance has reportedly purchased the Dutch Government's Fokker 70 PH-KBX

Robert, are you a regular reader of the Dutch News ?
PH-KBX is no stranger to Australia as it brought the Dutch Royal Family on a Royal Visit to Perth in October, last year. I wonder if they noticed the Alliance guys "kicking the tyres" when parked in Perth. |
Negative, was tipped off. :) Word (rumour) is that it could be delivered in June/July (assuming it isn't painted).
VH-FKJ is out of the paint shop in Alliance livery still. |
Not sure if delivery dependent on arrival of replacement B737BBJ.
There is around 7 a/c stored in Bratislava if they need another a/c in a hurry |
PH-KBX will be finishing up in May but the BBJ isn't due until 2018 (not too sure what month). Which will mean they will need to charter a KLM or Dutch Military aircraft in the short term. My understanding is that the Royal fly on scheduled flights from time to time.
I'll post FKJ in the photos thread. |
There is one showing into BNE tonight on delivery from KOE ??? NEW ONE OR
SXI 1724 or is this a machine returning after maintenance??? |
