Was busy in the garden, and I must admit I watched some of you-know-who’s wedding so radar was off for much of the day, but still managed 6 frames:
OH-LWL 350 Finnair AY1332 LHR departure A6-EUP 380 Emirates EK39 heading for BHX TC-SEK 738 Sun Express heading for DUB (?) N609UP 748F UPS 5X76 SDF-DXB EI-GJB 738 Ryanair out of EMA (still need GJC/E/I, but GJX/Y/Z/GSA have all flown) PK-GII 773 Garuda GA86 inbound LHR (is this rare? Don’t recall noting it before)
LHR has been on 09 for a few days now, so I have managed to upgrade several seen previously only as strobes on late evening departure to “seen properly” on approach, mainly Far East carriers.

Hi Jerry, Funny as it sounds but I’ve had 6 or 7 Alitalia A319 Frames required for years, and over the past month or so I’ve been gradually chalking them off!!! Think I have 3 left now... So your’s is not the only head above the parapet.... Cheers mate. Bill

I never even bother taking a shot of those that go over the house here Keith as the regs are so small and inconspicuous. My 500mm lens is usually good enough to read anything off but not those.
Jerry, I'm a bit behind you on the B787 count, I've seen 387 to date

Jerry, I'm a bit behind you on the B787 count, I've seen 387 to date Graham Made another today, B-1546 789 Hainan inbound LHR, up to 399. If past performance is anything to go by, this will return on Wednesday and Friday, with a different one next Monday, hopefully my 400th, as I have the fleets of most of the LHR visitors and regular OTTs.

Lovely warm day but spent too much time today looking into a pale blue haze for non trailing planes that wouldn't reveal themselves. in the circumstances, not too bad, local traffic boosting the numbers.

Anyone got any idea what I saw heading south towards Goodwood around 1.30pm. Slow moving , twin fin, sounded like a DC3. B25?

Probably N3675G B-25J (ex 44-30423). It departed Wick at 11.10BST for Deauville............credit FC.
It does not appear to have been showing any Mode-S and so has not plotted.
Cheers,
Bob

Thanks Bob, It certainly looked B25ish. High flying so en route to France sounds about right. Chris

Is French ATC on strike yet again? CS-TSF 321N Air Azores took an unusual but welcome route over southern England returning home from Frankfurt. Only other frame was D-ABQR 8-400 Eurowings (still in Air Berlin livery) inbound LHR. EC-MUA 772 Privilege Style (operating for Norwegian) was a scrape, seen with Royal Brunei.

A purplish haze dominated much of the day spreading the effects of the sun's rays far and wide; a regular stream of military (RAF/USAF) jets passed over at 14000ft east and west bound but I just couldn't see them. Happy with what I did get though, even if EasyJet Europe scrapes are becoming a pain!
