BMI just started a new service from LBA to Copenhagen using Embraer 145
regional jets. Did the airplane look like this:? http://www.airliners.net/open.file?i...ext_id=1159604 "Andrew Wilson" wrote in message ... My apologies. There should have been a comma. I meant one engine each side of the tail (total two engines). My house is directly over the flightpath from LBA (although the planes are well up in the air already) and I have seen all sorts of aircraft but never one like I have described before. Thanks again Andrew Wilson "H Milton Lewis" wrote in message ... Serves me right for getting into this discussion. The man said TWO engines on EITHER side of the fuselage. My mathematics says this gives a total of FOUR engines. Sorry for my confusion. What is the total number of engines (excepting the APU) powering this aircraft?

I saw an aircraft in the sky about 5 minutes after take off from LBA this afternoon and it had no engines on the wings but two attached either side of the tail. I looked in the small number of photos that I have from this group and only a TU-154 was anything like but it surely couldn't be this - any ideas please?

Thanks Bob.
That's spot on. I think that's it. The aircraft did have a long tube like body (like a 757). Andrew Wilson "bob" wrote in message news:VPHOh.111924$fo5.105735@trnddc07...

Can you imagine, having to type that all in? Thank God, we can copy the

Many thanks ajw Try http://www.airliners.net/ All DC9 MD8X MD9X and most Canadair and Embraer RJ's and many Business Jets have the engines on the sides of the fuselage near the tail. Good Luck Gerry |
