Thanks Finger66, you are correct, a schoolboy error on my part.

Jet2 G-GDFT on its way to Dublin this morning…C Check?

 

[BarnsleyHolidays]

KLM Cityhopper Embraer 195 E2 PH-NXW has just departed from Amsterdam and will make her first LBA visit in just under an hour.

Jet2 737 800 G-DRTM appears to be Leeds United's team bus for their match on Sunday at Brentford, and is expected to depart this evening at 1850 for London Gatwick. At least, that's my assumption as there's nothing showing for Saturday, though they normally fly down the day before a match, not 2 days.

 

[BarnsleyHolidays]

easyJet Europe Airbus 320 OE-IVB has just departed from Paris Charles de Gaulle and will make her first LBA visit in around an hour.

Jet2’s old bird G-GDFG doing the LPA rotation this morning. That will blow the cobwebs out of the engine cowls. Is that twice in consecutive days?

Titan Airways A321 G-POWU due to position in from EMA at 1800.

EI-EKX is a Leeds based aircraft. It positioned down to Birmingham this afternoon, then did a flight to Cork and back. Now positioning "home" to Leeds.

 

[White Heather]

Its a relatively quiet and typical December day today in terms of movements. However, there are 33 scheduled departures tomorrow and a very healthy 44 departures on Friday. Such numbers were unheard of at LBA even a few years ago and shows the progress being made slowly but surely.

 

[CM.]

British Airways Cityflyer have a charter flight planned using their E190 on Friday Evening thought to be Crystal Palaces ride up for their game against Leeds United on Saturday

Arrives From Biggin Hill as BA7032 at 17:15
Positions out to London City as BA7033 at 17:50

Looks like the Titan Airways A321, G-POWU has gone tech after arriving inbound from Ivalo as “ZAP550” this anfternoon. and is now night stopping.

Meanwhile Enter Air Boeing 737-800, SP-ENQ is currently inbound positioning in from Humberside as “ENT618P”

 

[BarnsleyHolidays]

Enter Air Boeing 737-800 SP-ENQ, making her first LBA visit, beat the night airfield closure by just three minutes!

Its now 2325 and there's a 737 landing so looks like it was a bit more comfortable than 3 minutes.

Agreed

Did we have enough parking for Titan and Enter?! Is it our first flight today to Pajala or has it been served before?

Enter Air has served Pamala few years now. New Laoland charter destination for today was Kuusamo (KAO) operated by Jet2.
