Looks like AZ8048 could be bound for the BHX area as at 23000 and descending just over the south coast?

W61011 / HA-LPM from Katowice is just over Wigan @ 20:14, looking like a nice long approach for Runway 27.

Jonascon, on a bright and sunny day, why stay on the north side GA mounds, or were you airside, outside Lomac Aviators? With the afternoon sun on the port side of the aircraft, a move through the extended centre-line to south side and the 27 mound would make life a lot easier. True there was a lot of general public there early afternoon, but they were parked much closer and orderly than the 'spotters' on a Saturday morning.

I just love the new pair of white earphones 'mod' on the Islander roof. Always a trap for the unwary photographer, they are the RVR (runway visual range) sensors. I've never managed to get them so neatly 'attached' to an aircraft though!

A few of mine from today:

You can tell it is the school holidays, as even on a Friday the weekend chumps are out and about. 'Range Rover' invincibility mindset, or a guy putting himself, wife and young kid at totally unnecessary risk on the vehicle roof right under the centre-line on very short finals? PS before the site censor gets to work, she is wearing a ringed pattern long top and trousers, not black bra and thong!! The other guys parked there were not even looking at the aircraft passing directly overhead - so why stop in a narrow lane on double yellow lines at all?
