No Hawk on deck as far as I know
The airport has been closed since 1600 on Wednesday, due to open at 1200 today

Cheers for this Twev. I noticed quite a few movements this week, so on Friday I whatsapped a friend who is a Jet2 pilot about it & he says they have been doing quite a bit of Base Training & what he calls Circuits & Bumps for 757 pilots moving over to the 737's

Not much you can do when LBA ain’t open on a Saturday currently

PC-12 G-MAKN being vectored onto ILS runway 32(1215) inbound from Leeds/East, for maintenance at Multiflight

G-LCYM BACF Emb190 has just positioned into SOU. If Southampton FC are actually travelling up by air for tomorrows game, I wonder if this will be their chariot.

I think this is a good bet Jason 1-11. This sub charter seems to be due to both the regular footy G-JOTR and G-JOTS being on the ground at Cranfield. To make it more interesting, G-LCYM will be making a first ever visit to LBA.

Socially distanced binoculars at the ready!

The airport is opening specially tomorrow night from 2000 - 2200 to felicitate its departure after the match
The airport is also open 1 hours longer than usual(1700 instead of the usual 1600 closing time on Mondays) presumably for its arrival

If a telescope is used does that take away the need for social distancing!

Nice to see a British Airways livered aircraft on the approach again.

Be careful not to use the telescope the wrong way round otherwise or you will be infected accordingly !!!
