BHX Movements and Heads Up

[superking]

Where do TUI get their heavy service work done. Wonder if its something to do with that.

 

[Severn]

I believe it was a “repatriation” flight for the home office.
Another TUI 787 flight departed from STN to Hanoi a day later.

A C130 with the callsign COMET162 was doing some circuits a few minutes ago.

By pure luck I happened to see it from my garden after it had finished and was heading off on its return journey to BZZ!

 

[HPsauce]

Same here!. I didn't see it's earlier circuit but heard it. Put it down to an ATR. Saw it on it's last go around.

Just viewing FR24 and Boeing 757 LZ-BRB has done a missed approach to R15 at BHX. It's currently going around for a second approach. Interestingly, looking on line it appears to be in cargo configuration.
Chasing it's route back it originated in Budapest.

I think it’s a training flight …. Sure I saw it listed earlier

 

[rollo]

Tomorrow sees a TUI flight to Funchal and two Ryanairs to Faroe on the airport departure board.

Busier day today total of twenty nine flights including Easterns inaugural to Gibraltar, Ryanair five Dublin, Alicante (brother in laws on it returning to his Spanish home after five months in his English one, not thats really of interest to anyone), Malaga and two Faroe, KLM four and EasyJet five plus others AF, Lufthansa,TUI Loganair etc.

Also STS receive two more A333 to work on making four A333s on site by end of the day after the Smart Lynx A332 leaves fo Malta at lunchtime plus the usual freight traffic and GA stuff including two French Air Force E121s, they are regular visitors no idea why maybe bring top brass of some sort?

Additional one of the two TUI 788s departing to Manchester later today.

Coming for a Balti?

[rollo]

Coming for a Balti?

Kevin

Ha ha, horrible things (Baltis that is not the French although come to think of it !) and if they are it would have to be a takeaway as both aircraft are due around 10.30 and out around mid day.

RAF A400M ZM416 (C/S COMET452) currently doing approaches and go arounds on R15 at BHX.

Probably the busiest day today for a while.

A total of thirty one departures scheduled plus a few "round the block " trips by Jet2 and TUI and another A332 for STS.

Additionally a second TUI Max due to position in from Gatwick taking the TUI number of aircraft to twelve at BHX 737/757/787 of various series.

Pity they've nowhere to go.

Looks like the aircraft in question (B38M - G-TUMH) positioned today to Manchester from Gatwick rather than Birmingham.
This means there are still 11x TUI aircraft at Birmingham currently - 5x B738, 1x B38M, 2x B752, 2xB788, 1x B789.

Evening all,

Blue Air from OTP to BHX tonight is 737 Max YR-MXA first visit.

Cheers
