[lbaspotter]

Eastern Airways ATR72, G-CMFI due to position in from Dublin at 14:55 as EZE579P.
I’m taking a wild guess it’s taking Leeds Utd somewhere down South-West for there game against Plymouth tomorrow

 

[White Heather]

The last set of pax stats were bad, so maybe you are correct.

If it is decaying, it's self induced.

It's usually Newquay for Plymouth, but could be Exeter too. I think this aircraft was Bristol City's team bus for their Monday game at ER too. Let's hope the thing is working properly!

G-TAWD as we know, has a history here! It's the runway excursion aircraft.

 

[lbaspotter]

It looks like we have a 2nd Leeds utd charter as 2Excel Boeing 737-700, G-NEWG is also due to position in from Manchester at 16:50 as “BRO52P”

Well t least if it is positioning in empty it does have a chance of stoping on our runway.

Was not airfield related excursion. Failed nose wheel bearing

Was not airfield related excursion. Failed nose wheel bearing

Coupled with inappropriate rudder activation (or lack of) by the crew and inappropriate attempts to steer the aircraft at high speed using the (broken) nosewheel. To be fair, the crew probably hadn't a clue what was going on with things happening so fast.

 

[CM.]

It looks like we have a 2nd Leeds utd charter as 2Excel Boeing 737-700, G-NEWG is also due to position in from Manchester at 16:50 as “BRO52P”

Both the Eastern ATR-72 and 2Excel are heading to Exeter.

So that had no bearing on anything then!

And, guess what. It's over 2 hours late. I'm not sure if the ATR is carrying LUFC or fans but hopefully the latter, with the team on the 737.

 

[BarnsleyHolidays]

Malta Air Boeing 737-800 9H-QCE is due very shortly on her first LBA visit operating the Dublin turnround.

A little later on, easyJet Airbus 320 G-EZWR is programmed to make her first LBA visit on the Belfast International turnround. Subject to change.

The Exeter flights were both for LUFC, the B737-700 was the team bus, and the ATR72-600 family and friends. MOT!

Well they might be heading South later than anticipated now. The team look like getting there first unless the 2Excel is late too.

Thanks for the clarification though.

Update. The ATR arrived at 1642.

A quick way to spend and lose their promotion bonus?
Nice touch though by the 49ers.

 

[Finger66]

Flying to Las Vegas ftom Leeds?

Well the 49ers new Gulfstream 700 almost looks big enough for them all. Oh how the other half live.

Quite a nerve-wracking day ahead for our two main football teams, with a title at stake for one and a promotion at stake for the other.

Suspect it may be nothing more than a coach trip to Cleethorpes for BCFC, certainly not a flight to LAs Vegas. All that said I do agree it is fully deserved.

Good job they’ve not got a Middle Eastern owner otherwise it would be a week in the desert with a camel and a tent!
