Was surprised to find I needed the China Southern 789 B-209E on the CZ303 inbound on 09 - first visit? They also have B-209D which I think has not visited yet. Also made TC-SEP 738 SunExpress on the weekly XQ886 AYT-DUB, and LX-JFF PC-12 which went overhead while I was playing bowls!
The Garuda 330s on the GA86/87 have been very disappointing, PK-GPP and GPS alternating. At least managed to see GPP in daylight for the first time on 09 approach today.

A very good day @ home yesterday yielded the following:
S5-BSA Cessna 550 Citation Bravo CS-TOP A330 TAP Air Portugal (inbound Heathrow) N400YY Extra EA400 G-WUKJ A321 Wizz Air UK (LTN-OPO) I-TAOS Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign (outbound Farnborough) HB-JBI A220-200 Swiss (inbound Heathrow) M-JNJL Global Express (inbound Farnborough)
and if that wasn't enough Reading won 2-0 @ Huddersfield to cap off a fantastic week 2 wins & a draw.

Massive gap filler A6-EOF A380 trailed nicely this morning, followed by my first Turkish 787 TC-LLB. Other highlight was Qatar A321 A7-ADV heading east out of Shannon.At the other extreme, microlight G-CKYS tootled overhead, pretty much following the M25 and avoiding the bank holiday traffic.

I was in your neck of the woods last week Chris, had to see a customer in Cowes but came across as a foot passenger on the Red Cat as it was the end of Cowes Week and my customer said it would be rammed. Most impressed with the Red Cat, very fast and comfortable even though the Solent was pretty choppy. Very reasonably priced too, £26 return

Was busy doing other things today, so just one for me, B-20C6 the latest China Southern 789 on the CZ304.
Noticed N112FE 762F Fedex on the FX5024 MEM-CDG. Hopefully this means that, following what was thought to be a proving flight by N126FE last month, their 767s have been cleared for regular transatlantic flights and will be appearing in UK airspace shortly.

Most impressed with the Red Cat, very fast and comfortable even though the Solent was pretty choppy. Very reasonably priced too, £26 return Hi Graham. Hope you had a great time here and didn't hit too many yachts on the way over. As an Island resident we can get discounted rates on Red Funnel. The other Saturday we did a day return by car for £39, plus petrol £50, match day tickets £25 and £30 on grub and drinks, you also have to factor in at least two and a half to three hours of the day for car ferries ( 1 hour crossing plus pre loading waiting time ). But I still love living here.

Catching up on a couple earlier this month:-
05/08 "AAC501" ZG998 Defender from Lee-on-Solent maintenance back to Aldergrove
14/08 "LIFTER01" ZK551 Chinook Westbound OTT Keevil in between the clouds.
And on to today.......
Having read on FC that all three B-2As were outside this morning, I was not going to miss the opportunity of seeing them - so a rapid trip up to Fairford to make the expected 82-1071 and 89-0129 as well as seeing 82-1068. In addition, I was treated to the sight of U-2S 80-1070 departing for California - the 1st U-2 departure I have managed to witness in about 40 years.
I didn't bother going round to Marston Meysey to see the newly arrived (diverted) B-52H 60-0002 as I have seen it before.

Yes, the Irish AW139 went by me, about half a mile to my south making quite a racket. Heard the BUFF but it was cloudy at that time

Post by rh226 on Aug 30, 2019 9:12:00 GMT
That Irish certainly did make a racket. To me it sounded like a bag of nails - or a car with the big end gone!!.
From my viewpoint, the BUFF came out from behind the clouds when it was a bit S of Trowbridge - about 20sec after being overhead me and slightly Devizes way.
