Just the two Georgia ANG C-130Hs out of Mildenhall this morning. Both showing callsign as "RCH140", 94-6707 [ADFDEC] and 94-7321 [ADFEA1] did not go BZN > DIKAS as normal, but routed down TR1 to around Melksham before turning to the West - a very pleasant change.
Just to dampen the euphoria, I failed to see "CNV3183" C-130T 165160 [AE03E8] routing NUMPO > NIGIT > MID > XAMAB.
Mustn't grumble - 9 for the week. Not bad at all.
Weather Man says cloudy for the next two days for me, then sunny again on Sunday. Fingers crossed.
Cheers,
Bob

My gloomy weather predictions proved to be false, with more blue sky and trails all day. But no interesting airliners, just 4 biz frames, N818LF G550 heading for CWL, and LTN/STN inbounds OE-LPN Gulf 550, M-TECH BD350 and G-POWO E505.

Better than expected weather enabled me to complete my KLM fleet with PH-BHF 789 heading for Rio and PH-EXH E170 out of CWL. Other frames made are LN-NHF 738 Norwegian, TC-JVZ 738 Turkish, HB-ALM ATR72F Zimex and N650NY Gulf 650. Scrapes D-AXGE A330 Eurowings (ex TAM) AND EI-FMV A319 Volotea on delivery out of SNN (ex Air Malta). Annoyed to miss USAF C-32 (757) 99-0003, switched from FR24 to ADS-B just too late!
(edit) Just one more, A6-EUH A380 inbound LHR, first visit? Still need EUG.

Three hidden by cloud and one visible - and I didn't need any of them.
Mind you, "RCH107" C-5M 87-0032 [AE057D] looked lovely lit up by the afternoon sun as it made its stately way routing Marham > Hartland Point at FL300 (short trail).
Sunshine all day tomorrow they say, so fingers crossed.
Cheers,
Bob

Just the four for me yesterday...
EI-FJA B737 trailing southbound to my west D-ATYF B767 almost didn't check this, was surprised it was a new frame EI-FWC SU95 N415P GLF5
Chasing 3000 pots for the year, should make it as long as the weather stays clear.

Very boring and cold day here in Southampton, nothing hitting the books at all. Just in case nobody looks at the deliveries section, WOW got TF-JOY today and Wizz got HA-LXK, both should be over here sooner rather than later.
Cheers Dylan

Yes, a couple of blank cloudy days, but new Emirates A6-EUJ is in LHR and should with any luck go overhead on the EK6 around 22.15.
(Edit) Yes, went overhead 22.26, outline clearly visible. Still need EUG/I, have they visited LHR?

First decent day weather wise for a bit, had the good fortune to be in Avonmouth working when Bill messaged me to say that Frontier Airlines A320 N304FR was heading north from Toulouse on her delivery flight and she was duly seen trailing to my west. Everything else I've seen today was either not needed or a scrape.

Despite being on holiday, it would have been rude of me not to make the acquaintance of RAFO C-130J 506 at Bournemouth - seeing as I needed it.
Cheers,
Bob
PS:- Pity it was rubbish weather when the Columbian 767 went over on Monday.
