The KC46 is a mongrel, so who knows how successful it will be?

Presumably on delivery; showing on ads-b as HZ-AS14 and on FR24 with an SV flight number but most definitely not in Saudi colours, what looks to be N261NV heading west over London 10 minutes ago.

A good start to the day with LHR movements JA837J 788 JAL, F-HEPK 320 Air France and N24973 789 United, plus EI-GDZ 738 Ryanair on the FR23 BVA-DUB. However missed the Avianca on delivery (just too far west for me) and the Saudia 320 heading for SNN and then on to Allegiant (careless, would have been clearly visible if I had been looking!)

The French ATC strike gave me my first two TAP EMB190s CS-TPT/V taking an unusually northerly route on their return to LIS from DUS and AMS respectively. Also EC-MVD 320 Vueling MAN-BCN and VP-BEA 321 (sharklets) Aeroflot on LHR departure. But missed several more including N607UP 748 UPS SDF-DXB, 4X-EDC 789 El Al out of LHR and new KLM EMB170 PH-EXW heading for CWL.

The predictable 4 Saudi F-15SAs for me today.
Could have had one more (12-0065) if I had bothered to look at the visible Ospreys at the 'Hall. Never mind, I will catch up with it soon.

Finding the newer Ryanair hard to catch up with, still need several EI-GD and all but one EI-GJ.
