The airfield is currently closed until at least 12 midday.

Aer Lingus appears to have canned its LBA schedule for tomorrow. I don't suppose it's the only one!

KKM?

Thankyou for that detailed reply, radar. I've been meaning to ask the question for years. I guessed the stop-altitude of 3000 ft would be impractical for modern fast-climbing aircraft. Also, following runway heading provides for horizontal separation.

As far as I know, the standard missed approach procedure for both LBA runways directs a straight ahead climb to 3000 ft QNH. However, ATC invariably amend this to 4000 ft. This being so, does anyone know why the procedure hasn't been formally amended to what always happens? Thankyou.

G650 N720LE inbound at 12.04pm.

Used as extra boarding gates for stand 15 and beyond. That is predominantly Jet2 aircraft but not exclusively.

Jet2 already flies to Split but reintroducing Pula might work. Ljubljana too.

Apart from the 737-300s which should have been pensioned off years ago, I'm amazed that anyone gives a **** about what aircraft type Jet2 uses at Leeds Bradford. This forum is getting more like a school playground every day. 'They've got new Airbuses. Not fair. I want them now!'

Remarkable to think that Gulfstream is still using the basic G1 fuselage after many decades. If it ain't broke...

Jet2 is the only other company at LBA that carries out aircraft deicing and that is strictly for their own fleet and no other aircraft. This could potentially be a tricky situation for non-Jet2 aircraft. On the flip side, LBA is the only airport in the Jet2 network where deicing is in-house...

PIA might even grasp that our airport is called 'Leeds Bradford', not 'Bredford'.

I see Friday's Paris flight is yet again operated by New England Airways. This really isn't good enough after several weeks. If I was on the board of any of the easyJet airlines I'd be seriously pissed off with LBA about this.

It wouldn't be winter at LBA without Enter Air. I expect they operate from several UK airports at this time of year.

A rather unstable approach. I'm surprised the crew didn't throw it away earlier.

The Sunseeker 737 was G-BNNJ. A -300, originally for Dan Air but taken into the BA fleet at the time of the buyout. It was flown on the Air Foyle AOC and crewed, at least partly, by former Dan Air pilots. I remember it doing some crew training at LBA before the summer season began.

That's because the elastic was at full tension.

I'm not sure we have enough runway for even the most capable A321 to the Middle East. I'd like to be wrong.

It's probably the one that was towed from stand 19 to a terminal stand about an hour ago. This is quite a rare occurrence for both Ryanair and Swissport.
