Archive Spotting Movements Log & Heads Up

I would have thought Multiflight will be restricted by the size of the aircraft, not for handling but for immigration and so on?

Although Multiflight handle all the Huddersfield Town charters and more recently, there was one for Leeds United too? Not sure if the Catalans charters are for the team only or have fans on as well?

Arsenal used a Jota 146 which was handled by Multiflight in May.

Leeds Rhinos are at home to Catalans this evening, yet there is no sign of any charter into, or out of LBA on the departures/arrivals. It was the same last week when they were playing in the area. Does anyone know is this because the flight operates via the South Side and for some reason is not being shown on the departure boards - or are Catalans now flying into other airports, which would seem odd. I seem to recall they normally use Carpatair Fokker 100s?

Further to my previous post above, I think Catalans did fly out of LBA last night, as there was a departure around 2330 last night which, judging by the engine sound, was not an executive aircraft.

Sadly not, you must have heard Jet2's Boeing 737-800WL, G-JZBL which positioned out to Birmingham at 23:46 as "EXS33E"

Must have been lbaspotter. Has LBA upset Catalans or something? They always flew in here before when playing in West Yorkshire.

We had two Eastern Saabs knocking around on Wednesday. I know all bets are off when it comes to this airline's fleet planning but it is nevertheless possible that one of these was for the Matalan mob.

You were right with all bet are off with there planning. As far as I can work out:-
Tuesday G-CERY operated morning flight then positioned out to Aberdeen
G-CFLU positioned from Aberdeen in the afternoon and operated evening flight.
Wednesday The morning flight was cancelled (G-CFLU sat on apron all day)
G-CERZ positioned in from Aberdeen in afternoon to operate evening flight.
Thursday G-CERZ operated morning flight, then positioned out to Aberdeen
G-CFLU operated evening flight
