The Catalan Dragons have a couple of West Yorkshire fixtures over the next week or so. They have been using Doncaster recently so will be interesting to see if they come back to LBA now that the operating hours are more conducive.

G-LCAC(Flyer 7313) being vectored onto ILS runway 14(0920)

Yes another first time visitor to LBA, and it seems that G-LCAC operating flight CFE7313 from Belfast City was the aircraft’s first passenger flight for a long time, having resided in Norfolk for a few months. It positioned NWI-LCY last week, then LCY-BHD earlier this morning.

The first visitors keep arriving. Embraer 190 G-LCYZ has never appeared at LBA but should operate on this morning’s Belfast City rotation, fingers crossed!

The inbound from BHD is using a 'Speedbird' callsign on the RT. I don't know if that's a new thing for CityFlyer flights.

It has been stored at SNN since Aug 2019 afrer being returned to the lessor presumably as a result of non-payment due to Jet Airways going bust. Flying domesticlly in India from new in 2013 it has probably had a hardish life but at under 8 years old it shouldn't be too shabby.

Quite possibly carrying Junior Firpo, who is said to be in the verge of joining Leeds United from Barcelona.

Nothing on the LBA Arrivals do likely to be heading for Multiflight if it's anything at all.
11 departures tomorrow including 3 by 0615 to give the GALBA lot something to moan about. Another 12 departures on Friday. Sounds good until you remember that in 2019 it would have been somewhere between 55 and 60 departures.
