BHX Movements and Heads Up

[DarloPlaneBoy]

Tha

Not strictly a BHX movement, but RAF Beech Shadow R1 (ZZ507, RRR7407) is currently flying circles centred around the Alexander Stadium, at 18000ft.

The French registered Beechking was flying at 27,000ft about West Park has been above Sutton Park not the Alex Though. G-POLZ was circling above West Park and Wolves eairler apparently flew over or Circled near to Darlaston Didn't hear it or see it before flying back over Wolves twoards a long approach into BHX. So these could be all Games related the RAF might be on Security as Spectators, Athletes and so on leave at 18,000ft it probably has Some Special Technology onboard to observe or is helping WMP's own Air Units.

POLZ apparently belongs to NPAS

They’re based at Doncaster Airport along with its fellow aircraft G-POLX and G-POLV.

The Beech Shadow appears to be heading to Belfast (BFS). It looks like this may have been it's destination, before diverting to monitor the area around the Alexander Stadium.

Still belongs to NPAS what do they do it was flying at 2,000ft over West Park NPAS is the National Police Air Service NPAS 61 I think is London Met Police Callsign.

Imagine blues chartering a plane be the one the Wright brothers used at this minute in time (I’m not a villa fan)

Albion Fan?

 

[DarloPlaneBoy]

My guess would be observing.

Wouldn't they use the WMP EC135 for that

 

[Glenn Eldridge]

Does anyone know if the Gulfair is turning up tomorrow morning? I read somewhere a second charter was due tomorrow

 

[A400]

Wouldn't they use the WMP EC135 for that

Not sure about the WMP EC135 but I do know those police planes do observation.

 

[rollo]

TUI have two Wamos operating today EC-NTY operating to Teneriffe and Larnica and EC-NCK to Paphos.

 

[DarloPlaneBoy]

Not sure about the WMP EC135 but I do know those police planes do observation.

The EC135 do Aieral Pursuits and Suspect Tracking, but if not there I'd the RAF or Miltary Defence Flight School I think Airbus Juno Choppers that are blue and Yellow like WMP Helicopter colours or any NPAS Colours

Albion Fan?

No Blues for my sins. Sorry.

Anyway back on topic

I see the an ITA A319 (EI-IMO, ITY9948) arrived from Rome (FCO), at 20:04. It's due to depart to Bologna (BLQ) as ITY9007. ETD 21:38. According to photos, this aircraft is in the new ITA livery (as opposed to Alitalia).

FedEx B737-800 (OE-IWF, TAY4006) arrived from Paris (CDG) at 19:49. Departed to Gdansk (GDN) at 20:46 as TAY4006. According to FR24 this flight last operated CDG-BHX-GDN on the 31 July. Is this a weekly service?

also had a extra Vueling in as well from Barcelona tonight, same 320 that operated the lunch time flight!!

 

[rollo]

The ITA A319 was another GP charter according to Ian's site.

The Wamos A333 that has been operating from BHX for TUI positioned out to Gatwick yesterday which means that today they are using only there own equipment hopefully for them and their passengers that will remain the case.
