To add to that, SE-MAF (previously G-MAUD) was performing engine runs on 21. SOCATA Raylle G-OACI was at the fuel farm in the afternoon. G-FBJF worked this evenings Birmingham flight.
G-LNKS replaces OK-TCA, which I noted in the last couple of days with wing tip fuel tanks outside the hangar.

Another short stop today - a new type for the Manx Register this time in Piaggio P180 Avanti M-FRED (the second use of this reg) which arrived about 1500 and departed 40 minutes later.
The day-stop ATP is G-MANO for a change; Flybe commenced this year's Norwich service using Dornier 328 G-BYHG, and M-IGWT remains firmly on stand 3.

Another interesting turbo-prop today - operated by Jota (whose 2 British registered Kingair 90s have both visited recently), the Beech 300 LY-LTE made a short visit, parking on V before departing to Glasgow.
Also on V was the PA28RT-201T Turbo Arrow 4 N66MS.

Also this afternoon we have had two Hawk overshoots as well, one at 15:50, the other around 16:30. There was also an Army BN-2 Defender circling in the afternoon, I can make out ZG99* for the reg, but I cannot read the last digit off the photo I got. LY-LTE paid a second visit as well, departing again at 19:00  |

Gulfstream 550 M-UGIC arrived early this morning and parked southside due to M-IGWT still occupying stand 3. However, the result was a rare shot of 3 x Ms in one photo - including resident M-ISLE taking off on 08. Jetstream G-LNKS is also in the photo.  |

ZG998 would be quite good, Acklington !! and nice shot of the 3 Ms.
Just returning from photographing M-UGIC, heard "VYT78" approaching and this made two go-arounds revealing itself as ZK022. Not far behind came Eclipse N100VA on its first visit this year although it has visited several times.

Sadly, "AAC525" comes up on an SBS report for the Belfast area yesterday as ZG995.

Another Hawk go-around yesterday afternoon was "VYT71" T 1446 - unidentified.
Its the turn of the smaller guys today - first this morning was Ikarus G-CBTG which parked on V - then Robinson 44 G-DOVS landed early afternoon at Manx Flyers.

This year we seem to be getting a multitude of Gulfstreams - this morning Gulfstream 5 N516GH paid its second visit, then in the early evening came the first visit of the largest version - the 650 - when N305CC arrived direct from Fort Lauderdale - it's night-stopping parked out on the southside.
