Archive Spotting Movements Log & Heads Up

[lbaspotter]

By all accounts the Transavia Boeing 737 booked in to operate the Leeds Diocese annuel Lourdres Pilgrimage charter on Friday July 1st might not be the only aircraft to visit LBA as I understand a 2nd outbound flight may have been booked into by Joe Welsh tours to help with the uplift of passengers..

Watch this space as the aircraft could be something interesting on a first visit to LBA. Also the is still no word as to whom or whats operating the return service on Thursday July 7th....

 

[BarnsleyHolidays]

Understand that 'watch this space' will be operated by a CityJet Sukhoi Superjet on the morning of July 01st. An interesting first visitor!

Yeah that's the one "Barnsley Holidays" You've spoiled the fun to easily. Lol

 

[White Heather]

That will be interesting. Anyone know the scheduled times yet for the 1st? Time to google the Sukhoi Superjet. Talking of new jets, anyone seen the new Russian Airliner, the Irkut MC21? Looks interesting.

Due between 7am and 7:45

 

[lbaspotter]

Don't know wither to post this or not. Due to what happened yesterday in Batley possibly expect a RAF Royal Flight aircraft into LBA this afternoon as the Prime Minister David Cameron is to visit Jo Cox's constituency along with Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn and Commons Speaker John Bercow whom will join together to pay tribute.

[Bigman]

I am hearing that the Cityjet is not now coming on on Friday, and possibly also the Transavia. Is this confirmed?

CityJet now using a Avro RJ85, whilst Transavia are still using Boeing 737.

Cheers lbaspotter. Not worth getting out of bed early for that then!!

 

[lbaspotter]

Due to aircraft shortages todays delayed Vueling VY8794/5 service from/to Barcelona is been operated by Titan Airways Boeing 737-300QC, G-ZAPW.

 

[oldendays]

Titan was operating for Vueling at Manchester yesterday with a 757. Positioned out in the afternoon from T2, not Vueling's usual area.

Titan has also operated an extra A320 for Jet2 this last couple of days. Appreciate this is slightly off-thread.

Brand new at just over a month old (delivered 26th May). Must be the first visit of an E-175 at LBA too.

I agree with you, Think the Estonian last year brought in the WWE Wrestlers for an event at Leeds Arena. I've seen Flybe use them on the Belfast City - Leeds route a few times in the past...

Tomorrow's Lourdes flights will position into LBA as follows: Cityjet RJ85 = ETA 07:45 & Transavia B737 = ETA 07:55.
