Down at the 27 mound 1050-1135, Billy no mates in the cold and hazy conditions. Again, 09 the active, but the closure to taxiway Alpha has been lifted - aircraft coming of the 09 fast turn-off, or rolling to the end were taxiing directly to Tango or the main apron.

Brief version of the log:

Airliners: G-EZBD dep, G-EZDK arr, plus two more EasyJets. No Ryanairs.
Biz-Jets: Citation G-OMRH, Cessna 510 Mustang G-FNKB, Challenger 300 N866TM.

Singles: Chipmunk G-BCSL, Tomahawk G-EDNA, Cherokee G-CPTM.


Thanks to the 'heads-up' from Hawker, a shot of the landing Challenger 300, N866TM, which parked on the main apron



Along the western edge of the GA were Citation G-OMRH in the SW corner where it has been for several days, and between it and the Keenair hangar Mustang G-FBKB.



Departing A.319 G-EZBD.



Several residents were active, including Cherokee G-CPTM



One advantage of 09 operation is that it is possible to get photos of inscriptions under the wing! Known about these two for a while, but never had a chance for a decent shot!
