Hawk 88, have you got FR24 on 24 hour playback? Or have you just linked to the LJLA arrivals page last looked at 24 hours ago, but have not refreshed today? Looks very much as though you are reporting what happened yesterday, Saturday - times, flight numbers, place of departure etc all the same for an airline that rarely calls. Still coincidences do happen!

TCX 900F thomas cook is due in from bournemouth at 9.38 Would this be G-POWC again as it is same flight number?G-POWC sneaked out to Athens using the Callsign: AWC98C at 12:30 this morning and arrived back at its Stansted base @ 08:30 as AWC98W. (Posted @ 09:59) So you may well see a different Aircraft.

No TCX flight has shown up on the LJLA arrivals page on either my laptop or PC this morning, looked several times over the past few hours.
You do need to manually 'refresh' the LJLA arrivals and departure pages if called up on 'favourites'.

Every time you load the iPad LJLA App. it refreshes itself. Just checked again and TCX 900 F is still showing 0938 hrs. Looking at the LJLA website arrivals board via IE, Chrome, and Firefox and it is not showing.

Seems you were not alone. Interesting as I was under the impression that the BBC flight information boards were feed from the Airport's own.
One of reasons why I usually quote a source for 'passed on' information - that way I don't feel any blame when it proves unreliable. Flight arrival boards often seem to be the job given to junior staff, who do not have the experience to filter out the genuine from the suspect. Just consider the number of times flights appear on the LJLA arrivals board in duplicate with a full flight number and again with an 'alpha numerical' call-sign number until someone with knowledge spots the error.

Somebody in Titan ops seems to be responsible for the misinformation regarding TCX900F. G-POWC was due to stay at LJLA but Titan picked up a sub-charter for Thomas Cook from Bournemouth, so it flew to Hurn on Friday and back again on Saturday. There was a plan for TCX900F this morning. I suspect this was filed early yesterday with the wrong date in error. When it was found there was no plan for yesterday, a new one would have hastily been filed. Nobody realised the incorrect plan was still in the system.

Happens a lot that,incorrectly generated flight plans,all airlines are guilty of it,and it causes slots to be issued by Eurocontrol sometimes in error,therefore delaying other flights needlessly on some occassions when it isnt picked up!
