Birmingham Airport Cargo Operations

The heavy freighters seem absent, so far this week. Are they having a break or have they finished?

[EDIT] - Silkway and MNG flights are listed on the FR24 EMA arrivals page. However, l saw a Silkway flight listed for EMA last week, but it operated into BHX. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Silkway 744 due in today from Baku and Maersk 767 also t/f Billund which is the third flight from them since last Saturday so things still seem to be bubbling along nicely as we have also had a National 744, Emirates 777F and the MNG A333 during that period .

Silkway 744 due in today from Baku

I'm seeing it on FR24 now. I think that was the one showing as into EMA earlier, but has now disappeared. There is another Silkway B744F (7L655), showing inbound to EMA tomorrow at 15:30. We'll see where that one goes.

The Silkway 744 is on Ian's blog estimating arrival at 14:30 although of these freight flights seem to have mind's of their own.

Best just to make the most of this exceptional period whilst it lasts.

The Silkway 744 is on Ian's blog estimating arrival at 14:30

Silkway B744F is due 18.44 which is about 15 minutes late according to FR24.

FR24 is showing Georgian Airways B767-300F (4L-GIT, IGT2983) due TBS tomorrow at 09:37.

Besides the Georgian 767 the Emirates B777 in again today from Dubai to Frankfurt and MNG A333 t/f Istanbul - the big stuff keeps coming. It would be interesting to know the latest freight figures compared to last year.

Tokay we have MNG Airlines with a B767 arriving e18:25 f/t Billund, also another MNG this one a A332 arriving e20:00 f/t Istanbul.

First time they have put two aircraft in on the same day and they should both be on the ground at the same time providing they stick to the schedule.

The Billund 767 is the regular Maersk flight, not MNG. (think the blog is showing the MNG logo in error maybe?)

Thought it might be a substitution.

Have MNG stopped flights in to BHX does anyone know ?

Have MNG stopped flights in to BHX does anyone know ?

We certainly haven't had any for around three weeks now.
It was an abrupt end. Whether temporary or permanent I can't say.
Can anyone throw any light on the situation?.
