ABBREVIATIONS AND FORMAT COMMENTS

All times are quoted as ‘local’ time. As the source material is in UTC in the winter this is easy. However, there is always the chance of being one hour out, no matter how hard I try and avoid mistakes, especially in October and March, the months when BST/GMT changes over.

30/1357 shows that the aircraft stayed over midnight, departing on the date and time shown

f&t = from and to. Where the point of origin and destination are different, both locations are named separated by a - . Some use of standard IATA airfield abbreviations eg BHX - Birmingham; EMA - East Midlands Airport; DTV - Durham Tees Valley; DSA - Doncaster Sheffield Airport; LBA - Leeds-Bradford Airport; and more occasional DUB Dublin; MAN Manchester; BRS Bristol; CEG Chester; NCL Newcastle, GLA Glasgow and SEN Southend.

G/A refers to an aircraft performing an approach and go-around only, but did not touch down. t&g is 'touch and go' or 'roller' only, not a full stop landing. fv = first visit to LJLA. 'local' is a flight starting and ending at Liverpool, not landing elsewhere n/s night stop, c/s Radio call-sign.

The registrations of aircraft operating on call-signs, especially RAF aircraft on Go-Around are not always 100% accurate. During daylight where a code and direction of Go-Around are given, this means that the registration was confirmed by Mk.1 eyeball (well, usually a digital image!).

Where an aircraft operated on call-sign, this is noted by official IATA 2-, or more usually ICAO 3-,letter abbreviation. If there is no call-sign, then the aircraft operated using the registration. Where there is just one call-sign, the same flight number/call-sign was used both in- and out- bound.

In the final column the operator is that translated from the call-sign designator, which in some cases is not the same as the registered owner. This is often the case for GMA Gama Aviation, FLJ Flairjet and VCG Catreus AOC Ltd call-signs.

'Football related', 'team chtr', 'for the match' or similar comments are generally determined by the times and point of origin/destination and is informed guesswork, not absolute known fact. Very difficult to be certain which aircraft, especially biz-jets, bring fans and which are co-incidence!

Likewise 'freight i/b' or 'freight o/b' comment is an assumption based on aircraft type, point of origin/destination, flight numbers etc - only rarely is the direction freight is being carried, confirmed by eyeball.

The 'S', eg S14, refers to the apron stand that the biz-jet was parked on.

The source material does not name non-registered airfield sites, these are covered by the blanket term ‘private site’. Nor does it identify diverted flights or the reason for the diversion, however these can usually be worked out from other sources.

'WX' = literally 'weather out' conditions below minima visibility or above acceptable wind speed/direction, 'Dvt' = diverted in, 'chtr' = charter flight, Pax = passengers, Del = delivery, Arr = arrived, Dep = departed, pvt = private (location), n/s night stopped.

I do my best to check full type designations, however an occasional one may not be absolutely name and mark accurate. Spotted an error, typing slip, or have further details to add, do let me know by PM or place a post on this thread.

CREDIT & THANKS

Should any details be used and repeated elsewhere, due credit to 'LJLA and nwan forum' is expected. This post should NEVER be 'copy and pasted' and repeated in full or in part elsewhere on the internet. Hyper-linking this thread onto other sites, again with due credit, or printing-out for personal use does not require specific permission, although I would like to know if it is hyper-linked in full to another site.

Finally and very importantly, my very many thanks for Liverpool John Lennon Airport in permitting access to records to extract these visitor movements - so allowing our complete monthly records since 1957 to continue unbroken. Also to the many who provide information and confirmation of detail on the nwan forum 'daily threads'.

FEBRUARY 2020 MOVEMENTS REPORT

CHARTERS

Norwegians from Oslo travelled home on Enter Air Boeing 737-800 SP-ESB on Monday 3rd after a weekend break including the LFC v Southampton game (they had arrived on Friday 31st January. This match also attracted fans on a chartered Sun Air Dornier 328JET OO-JJB on Saturday 1st from and to Stansted. A further charter from Norway brought fans from Trondheim, again using Enter Air Boeing 737-800 arriving on Friday 21st on SP-ENV, but not leaving until Tuesday 25th on SP-ENL, due to the LFC game against West Ham being moved to Monday evening.

LFC fans travelled to the European Cup Quarter final, away first leg against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday 18th on 3 charter/special scheduled flights using an Enter Air Boeing 737-800 and 2 Vueling Airbus A.320 aircraft.

FOOTBALL TEAM TRAVEL

LFC used Jota’s BAe.146 G-SMLA to get to and from their away games against Norwich on Saturday 15th and Watford on Saturday 26th. While West Ham used Excel Aviation’s Boeing 737-300 G-SWRD to get them to and from Liverpool for Monday evening 24th. LFC team and staff appear to have used two Boeing 737-300s to get to and from Madrid for the European Cup away game, employing Excel Aviation G-SWRD and Maleth-Aero’s 9H-ZAK.

EFC travelled home by air from their away game against Arsenal on Sunday 23rd on Jota’s BAe.146. However EFC did not fly to or from their away match at Watford on Saturday 1st, nor did Crystal Palace fly to Liverpool for their Saturday 8th match at Goodison.

FREIGHT

Eight aircraft can be identified as carrying freight during February, spread across a variety of types, operators and points of origin. Types varied from a Cessna 421 to an ATR-72F. Most appear to have brought freight in. From Belfast RVL Cessna 406 on Saturday 1st and a new operator to me, Eagle European with a Cessna 421; from Vitoria, Spain an ATR-42 of Fleet Air Bulgaria Wednesday 12th; from Prague on Tuesday 18th both a Flightline Metro and RAF-Avia’s newly acquired ATR-72F YL-RAK; Fleet Air Saab 340F from Krakow also on Tuesday 18th; with a Sprint Air Saab 340F from Hahn on Thursday 27th completes the inbound list. Which leaves just RAF-Avia’s Saab 340 on Saturday early hours 22nd routing Budapest to Hahn and could have been bringing freight either inbound or outbound. Registrations and times can be located in the main visiting aircraft log.

DIVERSIONS

Many more than in January – but nothing to get too excited about! The main culprit was strong, gusty cross-winds created by three officially named Atlantic storms during the month. During Sunday 9th, 6 aircraft - 5 Ryanairs and an Aer Lingus arrived on diversion from Birmingham, East Midlands, Stansted or Leeds/Bradford. On Tuesday 11th the tail-end of the same storm caused a Beluga to divert from Hawarden, F-GSTD/4, departing the following day. Early hours of Sunday 16th and two Wizzair UK flights destined for Luton diverted to John Lennon, with on the following day a Ryanair from Leeds/Bradford. Finally a second Beluga of the year, with F-GSTC/3 from Hawarden – which may have been winds, or maybe a technical issue as the aircraft positioned out to Toulouse rather than across to Hawarden an hour or so later.

MILITARY

Following on from a good January, three quality military aircraft visiting during February. The US Navy Boeing C-40A (B.737-700) 165829 which arrived from Chania, Crete on Friday 31st January, departed to Portsmouth, USA direct on the morning of Saturday 1st February. This was followed by another, this time 168980 which arrived early from St.John’s Newfoundland near midnight on Saturday 8th after a rapid crossing with tail-winds across the Atlantic, and left for Catania/Sigonella, Sicily during the morning of Monday 10th. Both aircraft calling for crew rest stop-over and fuel.

Another military aircraft calling for fuel was a French TBM-700 No.77/XD ‘F-RAXD’ during the morning of Thursday 13th, en route from Bordeaux to Bergen. Finally No.32 (Royal) Squadron brought in the VVIP BAe.146 CC.2 ZE700 for a spot of training as “Northolt 99” on Monday 24th, making 2 touch and goes and a final full stop and go landing/take-off.

TRAINING & GO-AROUNDS

Throughout the winter months EasyJet for three days a week, weather permitting, operate new crew performance check flights out of John Lennon. These have recently featured on the tv series ‘Airline’. The flights use various airports across Europe (just look at the easyJet section above to see where they used during February). However on two days the weather at Liverpool was considered the best for their purposes around Europe, so they stayed at home. Well, the complaints flowed in, with public comments to the press and radio regarding airliners looping over their homes, flying so low they were in fear of the aircraft crashing or for being in trouble so they could not land. Likely the same people had watched the tv programmes but failed to put the inside and outside view of events together. The sensationalist press, ever eager to gain readers/listeners attention certainly should have known better too, but routine and safe don’t increase their internet site ‘hits’ or fill ‘call-in’ shows.

Apart from one evening of night flying, the Hawks on practice diversion and go-around were few and far between, a Phenom appeared twice the same day and the Texans were noticeable for their absence. However there was a Coastguard Sikorsky S-92A using the ILS for two runs on Saturday 8th and a RVL Cessna 402 training on Thursday 27th which actually made a touch & go landing. There were also a few training singles from Sleap and Tatenhill for ILS training followed by a go-around or a touch and go. All can be found in the main visiting aircraft log.

EXECUTIVES, GENERAL AVIATION, HELICOPTERS etc

Generally a quieter month for biz-jets with not so many different Globals, Challengers, Gulfstreams or larger Falcons. But there were a notable numbers of the smaller BeechJet/Nextant 400s and Citation Mustangs visiting. There was also a considerable increase in monthly visits by Piaggio Avantis – a type you can hear long before you see them.

General aviation visitors were few and far between, as were visits by helicopters. It is though worth mentioning here that the Cessna 421C G-TREC which called in the early hours of Friday 21st is underneath the newer paint, the former one-time based and regular, G-TLOL – the registration translating as ‘The Littlewoods Organisation Ltd’.

RESIDENTS

Big news for this section is that the rather large new hangar beside the G.A. apron is now complete and came into operation on Wednesday 19th February. The ‘Skyport’ hangar is accessed by taxiway ‘Uniform’, also first used on the same day. Since then the hangar houses Legacy 450 M-ORIS and Gulfstream 5 M-PORT. While the Legacy has not been active during February, the Gulfstream has, being seen at Cologne, Berlin, Dublin, Altenrhein, Dusseldorf and Oxford during the month.

Two of our resident aircraft have now been placed on the US register. However both Cessna 182J G-AVCV and Observer G-RIPA flew as UK registered early in February and then not flown again before the end of the month. G-AVCV is to take up its 1966 delivery serial of N3492F and the Observer as N126WF. No doubt more on this next month.

GENERAL MUSINGS

For a February, the quietest month of the year, this month has been quite a reasonable one for the enthusiast. This though will be the last ‘routine’ month for some time. Not just for the collapse of Flybe, but principally the onset of the Coronavirus pandemic with associated fears creating massive restrictions on travel. Just which operators will get through financially intact will be interesting – I just hope as one of the ‘at most risk’ section of society that I will still be around to comment once Europe has returned to near normality again.

STAR OF THE MONTH

A decent month but tricky to find a ‘star. Loath to place ATR-72 YL-RAK as ‘star’, or a French Air Force TBM-700, or a RAF BAe.146, or even the 2 Beluga visits – the types and operators have all been seen here before. So what do I select? Well, how about the first visit by an Aer Lingus mainline (as opposed to Regional ATR-72s) to call at John Lennon since 1st May 2016. Yes, the Airbus A.320 EI-CVA on Sunday 9th was the first Aer Lingus operated aircraft to land here for very nearly four years, probably the longest gap since 1936, even through WWII.
