Expected Movements

[Jerry]

I dont think there is any hard and fast rules re military movements,i think its a bit of a grey area.I would think the royal family flying is a bit sensative and like wise with foreign heads of state.

It's basically don't announce them in advance. Afterwards they've been is fine but beforehand not so much especially US stuff as global trek is trying to build their movements up and they may get funny and refuse to use Cardiff if their movements are posted in advance.

It's been suggested elsewhere that flight OR7335 operated by TUI Netherlands due to arrive at 00.40 from Amsterdam may well be the first 737 MAX flight into Cardiff Airport. PH-TFP is the rumoured aircraft.

Airbus A330 landed from VKO. Its reg no is EI-FSE and landed at 09-25. I wonder if this is a load of med supplies.

Probably PPE as the aircraft looks like it originated from near Zhengzhou in China.

VKO is Moscow. You could be right with starting China and did a tech stop in Moscow for fuel.

Is the Welsh Government solely responsible for sourcing PPE for NHS Wales? Given that the UK Government seems to be responsible for sourcing vaccine for the entire UK I wondered if it did so for PPE as well, or is the PPE on these flights additional equipment for NHS Wales?
