EuroAtlantic B763 due in 17.30E from LGW CS-TST. More TUI cover??. This from FR24.

Thinking it might be a Tirana flight tomorrow....at a guess

This afternoon's TK A21N is a first visit of TC-LPA

okay…?

Please don’t be sarky about it.All hishaq was saying that the emirates took off 6 mins then per usual.Which shows the airport is improving

 

[Scania1800]

G-VYGK arriving from BZZ at 11:37, should be operating at least 1 flight for TUI

Sorry, made an error there. Thanks for correcting

According to FR24, it's operating BZZ to BHX then BHX to DUS.

 

[Birmingham Aviation]

Thinks it operating for cancelled flights to Düsseldorf

Not sure how you work that out as it's positioned in from BZZ then departs to Dusseldorf under flight number 9L/1921 ( RAF code ) then positioned back later today to Brize so it's looks like an military operation.

All todays three Dusseldorf regular rotations by Eurowings show as operating normally.

The glut of RAF aircraft we saw recently has ended as the Brize Norton runway has been repaired just hope it doesn't melt or break up in our Indian summer or knowing this country the coming winter global warming frosts

okay…?

If one is permitted to add a little context here, I find the concentration on minutes plus or minus re: arrival/departures perplexing. A family member who was serving in Her Majesty's Armed Forces, had to endure journey times measured in weeks to get to for example, Changi, Cape Town and Cairo ( empire was still important in those days ) and mode of transport was by steam boat! Military transport meant a period of 'roughing it' a few weeks and not enjoying a few hours on a Voyager.

No sarcasm intended here.

I believe that it is a charter for the Invictus Games which start soon.

It flew the competitors out to DUS.

I noticed the team photo had an AIR TANKER Voyager behind them, probably on a lease given it's white paint job. The registration gives it away. Fitting transport for a team of injured veterans me thinks.

 

[BhxJack]

It had the team GB athletes on for the invictus games In dusseldorf

Corsair A330-300 (F-HJAZ, CRL001), due from ORY at 07:19. Departs BHX for Marseille (MRS) as SS807 at 09:05.

Also, Hawker 800XP, (will always be a HS/BAe 125 to me, and my favourite bizjet) EJ-REVA , due from VLC at12:134.

Add to that, Air Horizont B737-400 (9H-LAW, HAT155P), due from Bordeaux (BOD) at 13:30. Due outbound to WRO at 15:15 as HTY4560.

TK1967 is showing as A321NEO, TC-LSN, due at 10:00 (usually a 737-MAX on that flight?).

Interesting that both Air Tanker and Corsair have parked at the terminal when charters have often been put on the Elmdon side or remote stands.
