Ah nice one. That'll be it... Thanks for tying that up! :good:

The Sikorsky S92 rescue chopper was probably too heavy for LGI's rooftop helipad hence the transfer at LBA to a land ambulance.

Sadly but understandable Yesterday's VLM Fokker 50 charter flight from/to Rotterdam was cancelled.

But this morning at around 10:35 saw Fokker 50, OO-VLM arrive inbound from Cardiff as VLM981 with the Cardiff City FC team onboard as they are due to play against Leeds Utd at Elland Road tonight

With Leeds hosting the MOBO awards at the First Direct Arena tomorrow evening (Wednesday, November 4th) do we know if there are any biz jets due in bringing the big named stars into Leeds/Bradford?

 

[a300boy]

I think my contact would not be unhappy if I say there are possiby many bizz jet movements tomorrow.

So do you have an estimate as to how many biz jets ruffly speaking that Multiflight might be handling tomorrow. Or are you talking about your friends over at Leeds East (Church Fenton) a300boy?

I take it you're referring to the MOBO Awards and not MODO? It's a very popular event and a huge coup for Leeds and the Leeds Arena. I think I'm right in saying it attracts a global viewing so we can expect could coverage of our great city. I hope the weather doesn't spoil the fun for us yet again.

Meanwhile Jet2 Boeing 737-800WL, G-GDFR repositioned back into LBA from MAN as EXS72W while Boeing 737-300, G-CELV also positioned in from GLA as EXS75W. Also Boeing 757-200, G-LSAA is repositioning from Newcastle as EXS17

 

[Aviador]

An expensive repatriation excercise by all accounts.

 

[a300boy]

A lot of lost Bizz Jets as well !!!

 

[scottrhino]

Do we know that for certain and if so where did they head too bar the earlier diversion to Manchester!!

 

[lbaspotter]

Gulfstream 4SP, N515JA just gone into the LBA hold as the I-RVR for runway 32 has dropped to 200m his also inbound from New York Teterboro. He needs 400m for landing and will divert to Stansted if he doesn't eventually get in.
