Re: Movements & Heads Up

Are the PK 747 aircraft off the EC banned list now?

I think only 1 or 2 are off the list. The majority of the fleet is still banned.

There have been a couple of visits to MAN in 2011, usually on the ISB run.

It seems Thomas Cook are performing tests over the Welsh coast area of Aberystwyth.

The first aircraft I noticed doing circuits was Condor's D-ABOB operating as CFG674 and now G-FCLB is operating circuits as TCX757F.

The latter callsign seems very appropriate

This EuroAtlantic Boeing 767-300 CS-TLO returned yesterday from Tokyo after taking vital medical supplies and rescuers out to the disaster torn city after the recent events.

Some movements for MAN:

Today (31/3/12), Monarch passengers to SSH got a rather large upgrade from the A300, as the ZB684/684 is beong operated by F-HLOV, a B747-400 of Corsair.

Also B747-400 wise,

Qantas will operate a B747-400 from MAN-SYD via BKK, the QF6001 will arrive from LHR at 21:15, QF6052 will depart to SYD at 23:15

Forgot to add, the Qantas B747-400 flight is very very likely to be the last ever QF B744 flight to Europe.

B787 to Manchester 23rd April

Just to inform you all that B787-800 N787BX is visiting LHR and MAN this month.

It arrives as BOE787 on 23rd at 1800, and departs to LHR on 27th April at 0700.

Will be visiting the Monarch hangar sometime in between those dates, and possibly visit Luton too.

Re: Movements & Heads Up

I noticed there was a second Emirates A380 at Manchester yesterday on my visit. Any ideas what it was doing?

 

[tleeds]

Re: Movements & Heads Up

One was a divert on its way to New York I believe.

 

[Jordan-34092]

Re: Movements & Heads Up

Was the Dubai to JFK service that diverted into MAN for some reason or another.
