Good start for me too with 4 frames already, N2136U 773 on the UA879 LHR-IAH, HZ-ARE 789 on the SV124 MAN-JED, and 738s F-HTVG and EI-FZE. HZ-AK43 773 is due out of LHR in a few minutes, should go overhead.

Several more on a lovely day. Yes, HZ-AK43 went overhead LHR outbound, as did D-ABNH 320 Eurowings. Also G-FBKK C.510, G-EZPX and EZRD 320 esayJet and EI-FZS 738 Ryanair FR26 DUB-BVA. Missed the new Swiss CS.300 HB-JCA which visited LHR this morning on the LX352/3.
It appears that F-HTVG this morning was on its delivery flight. Another frame this evening was EI-FTW 738 Ryanair DUB-BRU,and SU-GEI 738 Egyptair is currently in LHR, due out 22.35 on the MS780.
(edit) Yes, SU-GEI just went overhead, 12 for the day.

Quite the busy first day of June, as you can see lots of familiar stuff gradually filling up gaps, still a relative novice. Early on I had a nice clear view from my South Staffs garden all the way over Sheffield and beyond which accounts for the Arabian heavies heading eastbound.

I remember when I started properly again Deke about four years ago, living in Devizes beneath all trans Atlantic inbounds and OTTs I was making 50 or 60 a day without even trying. Those were the days!

As usual on Fridays out most of the day, just one frame A6-APJ 380 went overhead on the LHR EY18 departure.
Next door's beech tree has grown so much that it obscures most LHR 27 departures, particularly those that turn north, so could not see SP-LWB which left 3 hours late on the LO280.

Nice haul, smudger. Wish I could do the same with the military.
Flat zero due to excessive cloud, and what blue there was decided that it would be exactly where I didn't want it.
Day started badly with a (needed) Grissom KC-135R 60-0314 going DIKAS > BZN for Mildenhall, instead of over the top of me (VLN > BZN) - like the (not needed) KC-10 86-0036 did.
Then, I missed the two HC-130Js out of Brussels late this morning and, at dinnertime this evening, the Gabon Government G650 (STN - CWL) - all going down UL/L9.
Clear blue skies now, of course.
Not a good day - big sulk!!!

A lot of the Italian Champions League stuff went overhead inbound, but not trailing and difficult to spot looking into the sun. Made just 1, EC-MQE 320 Vueling. EI-FNI 772 Alitalia on a transatlantic flight was a scrape (ex Vietnam). N2332U 773 United on the UA90 to TLV and LY-VEH 321 operating for Thomas Cook were OTT frames, and my neighbour's beech tree did not quite prevent me from seeing the strobes of VP-BFF Aeroflot 321 sharklets on LHR departure on the SU2575.

Good hauls all round chaps, and the same for me, upstairs front bedroom, with the bins, watching the Italian stuff heading for BRS. Of course anything Italian is a rarity in the depths of Wiltshire so I did make a few.
EI-DSB - A320 EI-IMD - A319 I-BIXK - A321 EI-DTB - A320 I-BPAC - B737 I-BIXP - A321 EI-DTH - A320
Off the mark this morning with A321 I-BIXS, gives me 993 for the year so far and with blue skies above today, hoping to make the 1000th

Well, rather fittingly my 1000th pot of the year was another Alitalia A321 I-BIXQ

Had a great weekend so far but the cloud is here now so it looks like light aircraft only now on. Made a few at home in the morning. 3/6 Crookham Common Three returning from Cardiff, (couldn't see them on the way down not trailing) OM-NAS 737 EI-FVG A319 OK-PET A319 One OTT A6-EPZ 777 I then went to Blackbushe as I was flying to Aero Expo with my cousin. One made on the deck and one OTT G-LUBB Citation 525 I-EJGA A330 I made 55 British at Booker and 30 foreign so well worth the trip. Back at Blackbushe I made one over the top. G-SKBL A109 4/6 Good morning this am before the cloud I-BIKA A320 G-EZRB A320 N410MG Global M-AAAL Global I-BPAC 737 A6-EQA 777 OO-ACC Citation 525 I-DELO Gulf 5 F-GUME B1900
