Eyes down for what lands tomorrow morning from EMA, place your bets now.
Whilst G-NPTF would seem to be still grounded at EGNS, G-NPTE brought in mail on Saturday and then scurried back home.
Might she return tomorrow or will we be treated to a 737 again? Or, nothing at all...

Someone will be getting a hefty fine if that is the case. I've dealt with Royal Mail contracts and they're watertight. Even back in the 60's, the mail would always travel, even if we had to unload pax. (Pound for pound, the mail pays more than the pax anyway!)

As far as I am aware it is not a contract awarded by the British Royal Mail company, but one by the Manx Post Office. A situation going back over 40 years, at which time Vernair (with a Skyvan) and then Air Ecosse (with Bandeirante or Twin Otter) flew the contract from Liverpool six days a week.

The mail doesn't fly in on a Monday morning, only outbound by air in the evening before returning each morning for the rest of the week.
ATR-72 G-NPTF is scheduled out this evening as normal.
