Monarch Airlines switched the Leeds/Bradford based aircraft this morning on the Faro rotation. After a long stay Airbus A320-200, G-OZBX finally left whilst inbound was Airbus A320-200-SL, G-ZBAB coming home to roost, She's flying her final few weeks for Monarch here where she started 2 years before.

Such a shame. AA and AB have performed exceptionally well from Leeds' challenging runway. I hope the older variants have an equally successful year.

Canadian Air Force C130J Hercules 130613 landed late last night at LBA using flight number "CFC2527"

 

[Aviador]

Was it parked on November? I just caught a glimpse of it driving over Bayton Lane.

 

[rangieowner]

A C130 landed early hours Monday and parked on NOVEMBER I think that was Canadian, pilot sounded Canadian to me, couldn't quite understand callsign sounded like 'carnforth' or maybe 'can-force'. Anyone know what it's all about?

The LBA arrivals board is showing a flight due in at 1300 from Dakar, with a PVT flight code - which from memory may be Privatair (I remember them as they used to ferry Leeds United around Europe in the good days on their rather posh 757s). Does anyone know what this flight is and the aircraft type? Thanks in anticipation.
