Yakutia B757 due 1/3/15

Hi everyone,

I got the spelling of the airline right, but one of their B757's is due there today 1/3/15. It's departed Cyprus, so at a guess, any time after 1400 for an arrival time.

VQ-BCF is the reg.

The movement of the horses by plane hasn't happened in years and if I remember rightly, the last horsey plane was a TNT BAe146 into Filton several years ago. Usually any bizjets go to...

Re: Due 15/01/14

It was reported last night on the Birmingham blogspot, that MONJ had departed Birmingham at 17.04, for Kemble. It's been changed to aborted take off and returned to MAEL.

Maybe she knows what fate awaits her at her final destination. :cry:

Re: Saturday 27/12/14 lineup

The Germania was originally down as a Thomson flight, James. It still has the same flight number, but GMI instead of TOM.

We're waiting to see what actually turns up. :pop:

Re: Short Log 3 Dec 14

On Sunday EI-IXU was parked in front of the Corsair B747 as you look at it from the layby. Must admit I didn't take much notice of it on Tuesday and assumed it was still there.

Actually, apart from great company, you didn't miss too much at the other end.

Re: Bristol 01/07/14

Hi James, great set of images. :D Hopefully, I have some info to help fill the gaps. The Aurigny I think has the callsign of 642D in and 643D out, which maybe the flight numbers too. Your Thomson may be BYAW, which has been based for around a week, BYAY as you know has been the other based machine. ...
