And what about what looked like very much like a C-160 Transall that went right over the top Northbound at around 12:27 yesterday?

Saw your star performance on 'On The Aire' last night Ross. 'Dream come true' I believe was the phrase, which I though in your case would be Arsenal winning the Champions League.

Big-Man the Transall C-160 you saw will have been Turkish Air Force, 69-032 or 69-024 which were heading North along with C130 Hercules, 73-0991. 5x Turkish Air Force F16's fighters have been based up at RAF Leeming for the past 2 weeks as they have been taking part in the "Joint Warrior" exercise.

By the way, for me it was a dream come true to fly on a DC3, Have always wanted to fly on one hence the reason i said that!

FlightRadar is showing an RAF Bae Hawk T1A on the ground, reg: XX332. Landed 13:47?

You may find that Hawk is at RAF Leeming Not LBA. Flightradar has a tendency to do this for some unknown reason.

Looking on FR24
It looks like the 18:15 Aer lingus is a older -200 series ATR with a white livery and just green engines
Reg: EI-REI

With the Question Time Election Leaders Special live from Leeds town hall tonight and Tour de Yorkshire starting tomorrow I was wondering if there are any interesting movements today considering the PM used Multiflight apron on 16th April?:

The Prime Minister David Cameron made another flying visit into Leeds this afternoon. He arrived inbound from Glasgow using chartered Eastern Airways BAe Jetstream 41, G-MAJY as EZE9571 which was thenparked on the Multiflight Apron. He later departed at 16:30 as EZE9572 to Oxford.

- We are losing one of the Monarch Airlines based Airbus A320's (Either G-ZBAP or G-ZBAR) sometime tonight as we have a Titan Airways Boeing 737-300 subbing from them tomorrow operating the Naples and Tenerife services.
- We also have an Air France Hop, Embraer 170 due in at 14:20 on Saturday afternoon as HOP9028 from Perpignanand its due to night stop as its brining in the Catalan Dragons RLFC whom have a game to play against Castleford Tigers on Sunday.

Britten-Norman BN2B-26, F-HPIX has just positioned into Leeds/Bradford after doing some overhead work near Scarborough and the East Coast. I understand this aircraft is related to this weekend Tour De Yorkshire cycle race.

 

[Ashwo99]

It looks like the Titan is G-POWC,
Do we know how long it's subbing for the monarch, just today or longer?
I also wonder If we will be getting the same monarch A320 back?

 

[lbaspotter]

Royal Air Force C17 Globemaster due in on Tuesday, May 5th for some training.

I thought I had seen a post today that Monarch were using an A321 today on one of this afternoons departures. Have I lost my marbles or did I see it elsewhere.

 

[lbaspotter]

Jet2 latest Boeing 737-800, G-JZHD has just landed at LBA inbound from Bournemouth as EXS39E on it delivery flight after been painted into Jet2holidays livery. She will now most likely enter the Multiflight hangar for here interior fit out.

You not losing you marbles just yet a300boy! As Monarch Airlines Airbus A321, G-OZBL is currently positioning in from London Gatwick as MON279P. Its been positioned in to cover for the Leeds based Airbus A320, G-ZBAP which has diverted into Brussels whilst it was enroute operating the ZB7596 service from Leeds to Antalya due medical emergency. The returning inbound ZB7597 service is not expected back into Leeds until around 20:45 this evening.

Similar to my posting on the equivalent BHX thread the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight will be doing some fly pasts over the weekend. One is due for Bradford on Saturday at 14:15, the aircraft is listed as 'L' so I'm assuming it will be the Lancaster.
