FR24 is indicating an arrival from Billund at 08:03am. Wonder what it could be?

Well it should be OY-JJK a Hawker 4000 of SunAir Scandinavia.
Oh and fr24 work on GMT so 0803 will be 0903 local time

Pretty quiet during my visit to Multiflight Cafe this morning. Beechjet SP-TTA departed to Roskilde, Citation Bravo(Little Jet 3) positioned from Gloucester and departed, currently on descent into Reykjavik as I type this. Finally, King Air 200 G-REXA(Endurance 921) was from and to Jersey
Also it would appear that the SR.22 N1724D which arrived earlier this week is a new resident at LBA,

The LBA departures is showing flight BR006 of Eva Air to Inverness at 1000 this morning. Somehow I don't think so, given Eva Air is a fully fledged airline that operates 787s (not sure what else). Oddly though, their booking system lists various airports all over the world that you wouldn't expect to see, including, Leeds Bradford!

Not even sure what nationality Eva Air is. Can anyone shed light on this? The arrivals also showed a positioning flight due in earlier.

It was King Air G-CIFE(Broadsword "BRO" 6P) which positioned in from Doncaster.
EVA Air is from Taiwan and their IATA code is BR, which is where the confusion arises

Falcon 2000EASy G-NJAD(Artisan 848P) holding North of LBA(1030), prior to making approach and he has to burn off fuel before landing on a "wet" runway 14

 

[BlueManc]

Hard left at Blackburn. Possible divert?

Just landed(1045), inbound from Edinburgh. As I posted, he wanted to burn off fuel as he was too heavy to land on a "wet" runway 14

Crikey, how much runway does a Falcon need?

 

[a300boy]

depends where you put it down !!

 

[CM.]

CRJ200 9H-AMY heading to Leeds from Faro just past Cardiff currently. AXY0302.

 

[LBA4EVER]

depends where you put it down !!

And in the case of runway 14 that would be too far down, here i go again haha

 

[Len Fish]

The typical landing distance for the aircraft is shown in the specs. as around 2300feet. Even if you double that to take account of a full load and a wet runway that still gives you a lot of runway to play with given that LBA’s runway is 7382 feet. Still, the pilots will have done their calculations and know best. Perhaps there was a technical reason they needed more distance than normal, always best to be on the cautious side.

 

[BarnsleyHolidays]

….. and another first visitor to the LBA list, cumulonimbus cloud activity permitting! Embraer 190 G-LCYO is en route from Belfast City operating this morning’s much delayed service.
