Lots of talk tonight flybe have gone into administration. . Website offline and staff informed by email according to a flybe pilot.

Nothing In news yet but apparently in administration from 3am and meeting with staff at 9am

This is how I thought things would end up for Flybe Mrk2, but I am surprised they have gone so soon.

Are there any Flybe aircraft currently stuck in Belfast?

The two Dash8s that where based at BHD are still there.

A very unusual move. For the first time the CAA have been asked to allow a temporary licence, allowing them to restructure and possibly restart flights eventually. Lufthansa and Air France-KLM are looking to buy them too.

Looks like a couple of flybe aircraft going into Exeter today
And for some reason all flights now in the holding pattern
Wonder what's up

Who would have flown them out?  Former Flybe stick jockeys, or private contractor type?

I think Widerĝe came over last week and waited to get authorisation to take them back
The BHX -EXT ones were ex flybe kept on by the administration team.
