BHX Movements and Heads Up

[Kevin Farnell]

I'm sitting up late again and notice that FR24 shows that Learjet45 (M-ABEU) arrived from STN at 02:35. This aircraft is reported to belong to Ryanair. Does anyone know if it's used for crew transport?

I've read somewhere maybe on here that they sometimes use it to transport parts and or engineers if they have a tech problem that can't be dealt with by the airport concerned.

National 744 showing as due in today from Rzeszow departs to Houston, pity it doesn't night stop as we fly out tomorrow to LPA and I could have copped a butchers.

I can't find it on FR24. Do you have a Reg, F/No or arrival time?
Other than that, have a great trip to LPA!

I was somewhat confused by this, but FR24 is showing an arrival to BHX at 19:16 from Cleveland (CGF) by a Socata TB9 Tampico (LXJ37). However, checking the registration (N37EC) seems to indicate that it is a Gulfstream 4, which makes a lot more sense.

Sorry I haven't got arrival time or registration.

I found the information on Ian's bhxmovementsblog only detail given such currently is N***CA, F/N NCR871 I recommend this site for detail info re BHX although I'm not sure if I should say that on this excellent site!

Don't worry and thanks will have good time in Puerto Mogan table booked for tomorrow night, making up for lost time re conavirous.

The National 744 has now disappeared off the website so presumably now not happening ?‽

 

[Glenn Eldridge]

Anyone know if F-WWOW is heading this way? It's flirting with us at the moment

 

[Scottie Dog]

Landed back at TLS14:22

 

[IanFarquharson]

Hi there all, so what is causing all these issues at Birmingham Airport...AndyC

What issues are you talking about Andy? Security delays? aircraft delays?

 

[Kevin Farnell]

FR24 is showing a Smartwings B737-800 (OK-TVS, using TOM913P callsign) due at 11:18 from PRG.

[andrew.clarkson]

Hi there Matt995, the issues I'm taking about are delays and cancellation of flights at Birmingham Airport, why.

 

[Kevin Farnell]

Hi Andrew

What particular delays and cancellations are you referring to? Matt995 has explained, in a different thread the problems at Amsterdam (which impacts Flybe's Belfast flights). As for the cargo flights (such as the National B744), these flights can change at short notice. Likewise, the Airbus A380 was due in a couple of weeks or so back (This is an Airbus development aircraft and I believe that it has something to do with the fuel that it is testing). It's now a possibility for today, but time will tell.
All here at F4A are happy to answer your questions, but in order to do so, we need to understand better what you are enquiring about.

Regards

Kevin

FR24 is showing Airbus A380 (F-WWOW, AIB401), is due into BHX from TLS at 10:39. I believe that F-WWOW is MSN-1 i.e. the first A380 produced.
We'll have to wait and see!

Kevin

Airbus A380 F-WWOW is just taxiing out for departure from TLS (09.08). Hopefully here on schedule AIB401.

Anyone get any pics?

 

[Coathanger16]

Anyone know what it was here for? Was on the ground for about 4 hours.
