Since I have developed a bit of an aircraft collection now, it made sense to get a couple of bits and pieces you might see at airports/airfields. Anyscale Models had provided my turntable ferry, again they came in extremely handy with these excellent 1:76 scale models. I have painted the tug, ground power unit and one of the tow bars white, the second tow bar blue (as per reference pics). I have finished the tug & GPU with Loganair transfers I had spare.

G-BZFP is/was a very well travelled plane. Built in 1980, she appears to have flown in Gabon, French Polynesia, USA (Florida, then Hawaii), and returned to Canada where she was painted in British Airways livery prior to delivery to Loganair. Arriving on the 11th of August 2000 at Glasgow, she lasted 15 years with Scotland’s Airline before flying east to Switzerland and her new owners.

Loganair began their franchise agreement with FlyBe in 2008, following the end of their agreement with British Airways. This would continue until an allegedly acrimonious split in 2017, leading Loganair to go it alone. FlyBe attempted to retaliate by franchising with Eastern Airlines and competing on Loganair routes, however this failed. 2019 saw rumours of a code sharing agreement, indicating the rift had healed, however FlyBe would not last long. Having exhausted their finances the company would fold in 2020, citing the Covid-19 pandemic as a cause. Loganair swiftly stepped in to take on a number of FlyBe routes.
Having bought the rights, Thyme Opco relaunched FlyBe Limited in 2021. Based at Birmingham Airport, their first flight was from there to Belfast, on the 13th April 2022. They ceased trading on 28th January 2023, having lost an average £5 million per month, and leaving creditors short of £684 million.
