Evening Jordan That G-JOTA is a strange one! It appears to have just been put back on the British register after spending a couple of years as American. It's still according to G-INFO not got a current CofA (although I guess thats being worked on now), a very smart scheme on a very unusual aircraft...

Not on this flight, it was OO-VLO as Reubans171/172

Several of their weekend charter flights also use VLM (Reubans) callsigns. I presume this is due to these flights being sold through tour operators rather than the Air France/Cityjet website

Fa20 N73MR should have arrived at BFS this afternoon after Crossing the Pond

Martin

Yes, it's still standing, I'm pretty sure it's a listed building. You can get very close to it as this is where the GA & cargo is. However, you won't be able to get shots of the front from here. You may need to walk down the footpath between the railway & airport but you'll only get some distant sho...

It's a freighter and it's mainly used for transporting horses. It spends quite a bit of time at Cambridge due to the proximity of Newmarket.
