I'm starting with a rant (apologies) but:
Sunday 3rd April lovely day (No Popham Fly In) Sunday 10th April crap day (Popham Fly In) Sunday 17th April lovely day (No Popham Fly In)
Expect next Sunday to be nice but the following weekend to be crap (Microlight Trade Fair)
However three in the book so far:
SE-MHD ATP Westair Sweden HB-JHR A330 Edelweiss P4-BFL Gulfstream 450 (outbound Farnborough)

After a 90 min or so delay we finally got to JFK at approx 9.30 local. Made seven taxiing in. JA839J 787 RP-C7772 777 N961AT 717 N387DA 737 B16718 777 A6-EDN A380 mega gap filler, just need the EO* series N254MY 767 Dynamic Airways If we had arrived on time I could have made a lot more in better light. I will put a proper report in the appropriate section later but it may have to wait until I return, (we are here for a wedding)

Morning all, clear here too so have made Qatari B787 A7-ALA heading west which goes nicely with ALE made yesterday. Off to London shortly for belated birthday celebrations, we're staying in the Radisson Blu a few hundred yards from the western end of LCY runway so hoping for a few pots. Jeff Lynne & ELO at the O2 tonight, then sightseeing tomorrow before taking the evening train home.

Thanks Bob, of course it is an A350, senior moment I think..... Well having got back home after two days in London, I potted 38 so very well chuffed with that total. A few very big gap fillers too.
Train ride home a bloody nightmare though, engineering work between Reading and Didcot meant our train from Paddington reached Reading, then diverted onto the Pewsey main line all the way to Westbury, then waited for 15 minutes for a train coming the other way to clear the single line working through Melksham, before trundling all the way to Chippenham from the wrong direction at no more than 20mph. What should have been an 80 minute ride took two hours.
