VLM, the largest operator in terms of services at London City Airport,
could be getting ready to upgrade from the geriatric, but popular,
Fokker F50 turboprop, to the much larger (50 seats against 80 minimum)
Avro RJ series aircraft. Faced with competition from Luxair with the
Embraer 135 on the LCY ” Luxemburg route the airline lists from Monday
15 May the Avro RJ as the prime equipment on the sector. Whether this
means that the carrier, known to be evaluating more modern options
than the venerable Fokker, has decided on second user Avros for its
future is unknown, a statement promised shortly.
