Bringing F1 staff back after final testing as the UK is the main centre for development etc based at Silverstone and surrounding counties.
Brings the occasional interesting movements to BHX, Qatar upgraded to a 777ER today same reason.

Hi there all, so how many flights are currently taking off from Birmingham Airport, is it massively reduced to a quarter of flights a day, any updates.

No idea why you are asking this Andrew.

Today BHX has 116 flights scheduled two of which are cancelled Qatar and one Emirates service or two if you count the A388 which will come in full and depart empty, so overall relatively unaffected.

It also diverted to DWC due to an incident at Dubai Airport itself.

Busy day for Ryanair total of 42 departures maybe a record boosted by the start of Cheltenham tomorrow with
10 from Dublin and two each from Cork and Shannon.

Aer Lingus upped capacity from Dublin to 8 including 4 A320's.

FR24 seem to be reporting the next Wedgetail conversion is due around 07:00 tomorrow. BOE151 N471DS from BGR. These type of movements tend to be cancelled, so it’s wait and see I guess.

Apologies, should have gone under STS of course.

Air Tanker A332 positioning in today from Brize then departs Milan MXB.
Saudi putting in a 787X on todays flight.

The first Wedgetail for the USAF for STS has landed as per pianokeys post and I believe the the first Wedgetail for the RAF should be be delivered to Lossiemouth by end of March but not certain of that info.
