Luton is (unfortunately) my local airport although I never mentioned anything about it being my local airport.

Remember watching the Channel Express Fokkers 27s from Hurn, as well as the European BAC 1-11 and Palmairs mix of aircraft over the years.

Not a fan of secondary airports, sure I’ve been to Stansted but when I visited Luton oh boy it was a nightmare, thankfully I live near a primary airport but I don’t know if ORK and BFS counts as a secondary airport because of where I live, but I’ve been to both ORK and BFS before.

Let’s test you guys US airport knowledge

  • it has 9 commercial stands, 2 jetbridges, and a special stand that is fedex only, directly next to a fedex shipping center
  • 2 runways, except one is only used for GA, and is near perpendicular to the Commercial runway
  • it has a tri-daily flight to and from salt Lake, one morning, one afternoon, and one late evening
  • daily morning flight from fedex that typically uses a caravan, but occasionally an ATR
  • 1 of the jetways includes delta logos while the other includes allegiant logos
  • the western most apron has an electrical supply store directly off of it

I highly doubt anyone will get this

Hurn? Bet back then you’d never expect what was Channel Express to become the giant airline it is today.

  • I have a super long runway
  • I am located in the heart of Avation
  • I am the main location of aircraft maintenance and engineering
  • I can store aircraft as long as it needs to

You never heard it called Hurn airport before? EGHH, BOH etc no you just think it’s gonna carry on transporting flowers from Channel Islands to UK :bouquet: but do hope for a Channel Express retro jet :sweat_smile:

Not once have I seen it referred to as Hurn, normally just Bournemouth. I do hope Jet2 do some special liveries in future, an original silver tail and bringing back the Manchester livery would be nice.
