[JENNYJET]

Fabulous!!

 

[Ray Finkle]

I think the first red list arrival is showing for Tues morning - Sri Lankan A330 from Colombo.

Yup, a nice one to see.

Outside chance of it moving to Wed but hopefully it'll be here bright an early onTue morning

Assuming it is an F1 charter flight but TUI's G-TUIO B789 is on its way back from Azerbaijan to arrive in the early hours.

Re: Sri Lankan A330

They are chatting on a BHX facebook page and talking about this and it appears this is nothjing to do with Covid -19 Red list destinations and is some special chartewr flight going to the Elmdon site.

There is a second B789 G-TUII due in today from Baku, also there was a private CL60 from from the same destination in the early hours.

Turkish shows a A333 from Istanbul, BHX seems to have a thing about the A333 lately.

I can't see it showing on either FR24 or BHX's arrivals page.

Kevin

[EDIT] - My apologies, it's showing on FR24 departures but not arrivals.

 

[Scottie Dog]

As Kevin says the TK flights appear on departures only as the inbound only operates as a cargo service.

I flew SriLankan and the previous Air Lanka on A343 aircraft. The current livery is quite nice, a good visitor to BHX meaning the full set from subcontinent!

Re the Sri Lankan flight.

Possibly bringing in the cricket team to play England later in the month.They can do their isolation in Brum before preparing properly for the matches.
Just a thought.

 

[JENNYJET]

An excellent thought it is.

TUI G-TUII Just about to land BHX from Baku B788. Vueling EC-KMI A320 is also in.

The Sri Lankan A333 from Colombo arrival showing 0700.
A TUI B767 G-OBYFfrom MAN due in p.m. also one of the B788-9s G-TUIO positioned out yesterday to Stuggart.
The A333 for STS failed to materialise again yesterday is down for today, don't bet on it !

Looks like it’s landing on 33 which means ‘bugger it’s not going over my house’
