A couple of dull days meant limited opportunities, but managed ZJ199 and ZJ213 Apaches yesterday, and B-8577 330 Air China today on LHR departure.
B-7367 773 China Eastern did a missed approach to LHR on the MU551 and went over the house at less than 3000ft, the lowest I have ever seen one.

Two of the three Alpha Jets out of Mildenhall ("FAF6441" E28 and "FAF6442" E20) routed over the top of me this morning and a visit to Fairford this afternoon netted me the three bombers, making a total of 5 for the day.
Thank you very much.

Not a bad day for me also, made my last two Ryanair Ei-FZD routing NCL-PMI and EI-FZP IBZ-EMA. When is the next batch due, can't believe they don't have any more on order! Also HZ-ARG 789 Saudia MAN-JED and LX-PDI PC-12 which I think was inbound NHT.

Incidentally, I followed a car all the way from Calne to Fairford yesterday afternoon, but it carried straight on towards Kempsford when I turned off into Marston Meysey. It wasn't you was it??

VQ-BUO was a scrape. I had it on my database as D-AZUA of Azur Germany, is it still Bermuda reg?

Was the Hainan 787 operating China Eastern 551 yesterday a one-off, or is that a flight to look out for again?

A cracker of a day yesterday, with the following being potted
N2142U - B777 G-CRAR - CRUZ N678EM - BE36 CS-TTY - E190 PH-BVS - B777 HB-JNH - B777 G-BFIY - F150
The good lady and I stepped out to Devizes Green for the opening of the Carnival week's proceedings, good music, great ale and met up with some friends. Whilst there, about 30-35 gliders went across from west to east in 3 or 4 waves, so rather hoping that FR24 replay can ID some of them for me. Looked like some had come from Longbridge Deverill and others from Keevil
