One of the rumers suggest that the Livery will be a Partial DHL livery with the Eco Avation logo on the front like West Atlantic, MNG and many other airlines that signed deals with DHL though thats not confirmed either. Many are still waiting till next week where Flexi Alliance members discusse the plan with the alliance which Eco is a Member.

if y’all don’t know about belgium reigonal it was a mostly eruopean operated type airline, founded in 2001 by former F1 driver eddie irvne & jenson brundles, the airline mostly operated the 757-200 & 737s although between 2011-2024 they operated more airbuses like the A318 to the A321 & the Neo varient, however due to lack of funds & covid & a key route taken over the airline was forced to shut down & belgium airlines made the annoucement on twitter that the airline will shutdown on november 21st 2024,
we are almost approching that date which the same aircraft the last one g-zsy (i think it’s that one) will still carry the old livery as it represents belgium airlines history, the lads from flexi will get to see a new livery unveal probably after the 21st,
meanwhile were approching the best time of year which is thanks giving & christmas which means LHR will began filling the airport to the max which could cause delays, however between now & march we could see unexcepted weather, the american airliners are expreincing more delays due to the goverment shut down,

After the recent crash in Louisville, the FAA has put out an active order to ground all active MD-11 aircraft, leading to many cargo airlines and a small handful of passenger jets to be taken out of service. This has caused many delays, especially for airlines such as FedEx, Western Global, and most of all, Horsepower Airlines. Horsepower airline’s recent fleet audit had one of the largest md-11 numbers of any airline, with over 35 MD-11 planes in passenger service, and a further 15 in cargo service. With the md-11 grounded, this has forced the airline to bring in other jets to cover the flights, with 15 B742s, 10 DC-10-30s, and 10 A306s being brought in to cover passenger flights, and 15 Lockheed L1011 Tristar aircraft covering the cargo flights.
The CEO of horsepower airlines also made a statement after the incident in Louisville, with the airline having grounded it’s md-11 fleet before the FAA order. “[the] crash in Louisville has made us double and triple check our service methods, making sure this does not happen on our aircraft, we send our prayers to anyone affected by the crash, and wish the families of those lost the best.” The CEO was also asked to make a comment about the airline’s aging DC-10 fleet, of which, before those entering service to replace the MD-11, 5 are still regularly active for the airline, “we are aware of the similarity of the incident in Louisville to American 191, and are aware that many fear our own dc-10s could suffer similarly, but we can confirm with full confidence that our DC-10s are safe to fly on, each and every one has had their engine mounts checked multiple times over during each service, and we are sure that they will not have any issues, either on those mounts or anywhere else on the aircraft”
Other operators of the MD-11s have yet to make statements at this time… that’s yalls cue
