Have CCleaner, will run it shortly.
Not much to shout about yesterday, just N113CS Gulf 650 inbound LTN. But a productive evening with LHR departures G-VWHO 789, HL8005 777F and TC-JSS A321. Bright and clear this morning but nothing made so far, could not spot TC-SNP descending towards Cardiff but may get it on the way back.

Nice to see so many posts on the forum today. My desktop is out of intensive care, but still showing disturbing symptoms, after running CCleaner!
Was out until 15.30, but has been good since then with D-AFUN Legacy, D-BEAM BD.100 and N188ES Gulf 5 all heading for LTN, TC-JOJ A330 on LHR departure and scrape EC-MFO on LHR approach (was F-GRHA). A couple to look out for, needed A319 F-GRHV is just arriving in BHX and is due back to CDG tonight, and 9K-APB A330 is in LHR (first visit?) and I think is due out at 10.30 tomorrow on the KU104.
Missed N822NW, went right overhead and heard it but one of the cloudy periods!

Jerry, let's hope CCleaner sorts your issues out, with the desktop at least. It does remove automatic log ins from any sites you use regualarly so the next time you log into any of them, you will need to re-submit your username possibly and passwords but it certainly does get rid of a load of crap.

Just for info, the Germans and Austrian based Da42 did land at Blackbushe and departed for Waterford. Guessing they may reciprocate the route when they return home idc.

That is a great score wrighty, it's so good to sit in a foreign land , noting down the reggies and pretty much knowing that they are all "firsts" for you. Checking back over the logs I made in Crete two years ago shows that I hardly saw anything this year that I did back then, pretty much all was new.
Off the mark here today with Swiss International A319 HB-IPU routing Dublin - Geneva. Now, living as I do 75 miles west of LHR, there are an awful lot of the European short/medium haul fleets I rarely get to see. These A319s have very low c/ns so they must be very old ladies, but is this Geneva -Dublin service a recent addition to Swiss's routes? I'd never seen any of these HB-IP*'s but have seen T, U, V, X and Y on this route all within the last ten days or so.
EDIT - on checking AFQR, those five are the only five they have

Hello Bob, I drove past Fairford earlier today and the weather was bloody awful, so I hope it bucks up before the weekend. Forecast isn't much cop though, fingers crossed.
SFA in the book so far today.

Well, I stayed on a "duck" all day Bob, no chance of seeing anything now either, low cloud and still raining. BBC weather website says it "should" be dry now here till Sunday but with lots of cloud on all days.
