Between 1pm & 3pm we were on a tour of the airport,I have to say that I was not impressed with the company who have taken over from Buchair and there weren't any announcements on the coach about any interesting arrivals and also we had a film crew on board from one of the local tv stations and they spent a lot of time interviewing the organisers of the tour which in my opinion wasted a lot of time.By the time we got back to the terminal it was snowing quite heavily which made spotting very difficult.We stayed until 4pm and made our way into the terminal for something to eat.Our flight back was on EZY8118 operated this evening by A320 G-EZUT.It had departed LGW some 20 minutes late but had picked some time up so it was estimated we would depart some 10 minutes late,however we had to join the queue for the de-icing of the plane so we ended up about an hour late departing.An uneventful flight back to LGW where nothing of interest was seen.

So ended a very nice trip to Zurich and I'm really glad that I have flown again.

David it looks and sounds like you had a good trip, thanks for the reports. It has made me think about going next time 👍

David thanks for posting lists, I was watching on ADSB the departures on Friday morning from Zurich with Gulf Sixes leading the way in types. Unfortunately the majority of ones USA bound headed straight across France and out across the Atlantic. For some reason I assumed the WEF event would be a bit slower this year, but judging by your reports it could have been the best one yet. Will have to think about giving it a go next year. One amendment for you, N151B is a Gulf 600 not a Global.

Trevor,I first went in 2008 and then did 2011-2020 inclusive with the exception of 2016 and of course 2021/2022 due to you know what.It can get a bit cold sometimes but the volume & variety of aircraft do make up for it.

Hi Howard,I didn't know what to expect after a couple of non events but was very happy with what we saw.
