(Yesterday, 8:23 am)ReDemPTiion wrote There was talk when we were receiving Stocktons 262**’s that we were due some from other depots as well so I do wonder if the 27***’s from Stockton would free them up to move to Slatyford. I work at Slatyford and a few of the controllers did mention other 26***’s coming in from other depots so it could be them.
Yeah that's the sort of thing I was thinking, but not sure why they'd send them to the North West to then send them here after a few months. Mind that said it does seem, at times, that the management don't really have a clue what the plan is either and they're just going on a whim.

There's barely any difference, like 4 seats or similar. Personally, rather than pissing around rebuilding a depot, if the numbers are high enough they need more capacity I'd just source some deckers from somewhere and drop both routes down to every 15 minutes.
No-one is losing any sleep over a 12 minute frequency vs 15 minute frequency.
