BHX Movements and Heads Up

[Kevin Farnell]

FR24 is now showing EuroAtlantic B767-300 (CS-TST, YU631) to depart BHX for Tirana (TIA) at 08:00.

Several arriving aircraft at 8am seem to be circling. FR660 was the first but others still circling. Any idea why? Weather seems fine

Aircraft with a flap issue I believe. Thankfully all okay now

Destination Dubai A6-EES is NOT cancelled as everyone is saying on Facebook. The specific aircraft already has a flight scheduled, before BHX was added to the FFL list. It may be another Expo plane, as I see EOT is available.

For those that don’t do facebook… huh???????

FR24 is showing Avanti Air Dash-8 (D-AASG, ATV019H) due tomorrow at 17:10 from FRA. Departs to Stuttgart (STR) at 15:30 on Fri 20 Oct as ATV512H.
It would be interesting to know what these Avanti Air flights are for.

The TUI 763 G-OBYF that positioned in yesterday from MAN is operating todays regular BY7548 to Teneriffe substituting for the usual 787.

The Emirates 388wx diversion on Wednesday night from MAN finally positioned back there yesterday at 14:53.

Yesterday's RAF Voyager flight from Hanover appears have been a medivac flight, hopefully the individual(s) are O.K.

Today's EK has a different Colour Scheme but still isn't the Destination Dubai Livery it is A6-EUY Journey to the Future Livery and a former regular to BHX we ay seen it for two weeks or so

Destination Dubai Livery Aircraft I believe are 3 Class A380's I don't think they have any 2 class painted in the livery

I beg your pardon?

Poster was ‘forget what you see on Facebook’ I’ve merely asked what was on Facebook because I’m not stupid enough to use it.

Nice to see the A380 finally take off on time

 

[rollo]

As has been said before it is the arrival time at destination that is the most important thing particularly on a service like Emirates with their multiple worldwide connections.

Their arrival performance overall is good due to the inbuilt flight time buffer that all airlines apply.

Yes there will be hiccups like the 777-300 suffered the other night with a technical fault but overall they have a good reputation.
