SUMMARY OF THE COVID-19 P.P.E. FREIGHT FLIGHTS December 2021 to February 2022

There was a time back in 1970s and 1980s when Liverpool Airport handled large volumes of car components on behalf of Fords. These ad-hoc charters used a wide variety of
types and operators. There was only one period looking back, when there was a long series of freight flights not involving car components, and that was operated by chemical manufacturer's Eli Lilly between the USA, their Dista, Speke plant and Basle, Switzerland. They made a total 70 flights through Liverpool (plus one that diverted to Manchester), in a 28 month period with their Boeing 707 N309EL between April 1975 and September 1977.

In just 12 weeks between early December 2021 and mid February 2022, a total of 55 flights, 49 of them operated by wide-body aircraft brought freight from China, mostly via fuel stops in Russia. In all 4 operators were involved, Nordwind, Redwings, Ural Airlines and Hifly Malta. The cargo was all medical Covid-19 related, bringing P.P.E. (personal protection equipment eg gowns, masks and self-testing Covid packs) for distribution by the British Government/NHS. Prior to operating through JLA flights had been using Birmingham and a few continued to do so.

One unusual aspect of these freight flights it that the cargo was not palletised on roller floors, but loaded in boxes through the passenger doors and in some cases onto the passenger seating. This involved much physical effort to unload, known as 'hand-balling', the complete turn-around usually taking around four hours. The list below is split into week-long (Monday to Sunday) segments, the entries copy and pasted from the monthly log.

FEBRUARY 2002 AIRLINES & AIRLINERS

This is mostly a record of the aircraft operated through JLA by airlines during February 2022. With the March movements a review
of routes and frequencies for easyJet, Loganair, Ryanair and Wizzair.

All aircraft used on scheduled services during the month are covered in this section.
A * shows an aircraft based at LJLA overnight while used on scheduled flights.
The lists include airliners on diversion, training or positioning in addition to use on scheduled services.

										
	RYANAIR (FR/RYR)									
										
Many routes were suspended from the end of the first week of January due to the rapid spread of the more contagious, but less deadly Omicron										
variant of Covid-19.  Most routes were reinstated from the start of February, most at their winter timetable frequency as operated in November										
and December.  More detail with the March Report.										
										
As the Milan/Bergamp route was not one that restarted during February, no Malta Air Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft and  only a few more of the Buzz										
MAX8s to be seen.  By the end of February still no mainline Ryanair MAX 8s, although new aircraft are arriving at  Dublin regularly.

93 different aircraft used through JLA by Ryanair.  Several MAX8 first visits, SP-RZD (20th), SP-RZK (27th).										
										
A number of Ryanair aircraft diverted into JLA during February, mostly away from Leeds/Bradford (covered in main log).  No										
major disruption to JLA scheduled operations by Ryanair during February.										
										
	EASYJET (EZY/U2)									
										
  A.319s:					  A.320s:

Stored a/c: 5, then 4 x A.319.			G-UZHZ	based*, all month				
										
Amendments to schedule:										
On 21st G-EZDF had trouble at Amsterdam, positioning back as EZY 9912 at 1423.										
There was weather disruption to Isle of Man flights on 13th/14th and again right at the end of the month, when pax from										
the Island were collected by G-UZHE routing Belfast-IoM-Liverpool on 28th.										
										
	LOGANAIR (LM/LOG)									
										
No change to basic frequency operated to Isle of Man (x 2 daily, Sun-Fri, x 1 Sat) and City of Derry (x 1, 7 days per week).										
										
Isle of Man:										
ATR-72	 G-LMTA 1st.		G-LMTC 2nd-12th, 17th-end of the month							
Saab 340 G-LGNB	13th, cover aircraft								
ERJ-145	 G-SAJC	15th-17th	G-SAJG	13th-15th					
										
For 5 days the regular ATR-72 was replaced by the similar capacity RJ-145 aircraft										
Much disruption caused by weather during the period Mon 14th to Mon 21st										
										
City of Derry:										
ERJ-145	 G-SAJD	26th-28th	G-SAJK	1st-7th, 22nd to 25th		G-SAJO 8th-21st			
										
No operation noted on Wed 2nd, 16th, 23rd or Fri 18th.  An extra mid-afternoon rotation Sat 12th.										
										
	WIZZAIR (W6/WZZ)									
										
Having suspended flights to all but Bucharest at the end of the first week of January due to the rise of the Omicron  Covid										
variant, Wizzair, unlike Ryanair were not in too much of a hurry to re-establish services during February while international										
travel was still very restricted by Governments.  Bucharest operated at x 2 weekly right through, with Warsaw at x2 weekly restarting										
Sat 12th and Iasa at once weekly on Sun 13th.										
										
With only 16 rotations during the month, nothing like the usual number of different aircraft used into JLA:										
A.320:          HA-LPR	HA-LWK	HA-LWN	HA-LYM						
A.321:   	HA-LTH	HA-LXK	HA-LXM	HA-LXP	HA-LXT					
A.321NX:	HA-LVC	HA-LVJ	HA-LVM	HA-LVQ	HA-LZC		Of these the only first visit was HA-LZC on 26/2.			
										
	BLUE AIR (0B/BLE)									
										
JLA operations suspended throughout February.										
										
	AIRLINER TRAINING									
										
Flybe's sole Dash Eight G-JECX continued to call at JLA while crew training and/or proving to the CAA that it is capable of serving										
scheduled routes safely and the 'operating manual' is fit for purpose before an AoC is awarded.  However, in April, there was some										
disappointment that despite much use of JLA for training, the inital routes annoncement did not include any from Liverpool.										
										
	PPE FREIGHT FLIGHTS FROM CHINA									
										
These reached a peak of 9 per week during early February.  However as the 'Omicron' peak fell away and the anticipated massive rise in										
hospital admission never materialised, demand for PPE and especially for testing kits fell away.  The last flight into JLA was on 14th February.										
The series commenced on 4th December, with 13 rotations in December, 25 in January and 17 in March, 55 in all.  Full table of all the flights										
and aircraft involved are tabulated elsewhere in this monthly report.										
										
	AD HOC FREIGHT 									
										
Very little during February.  A Cessna 208 evening of Tuesday 22nd, an ATR-72F morning of 24th being of interest.										
										
	MILITARY									
										
Of note was a visit by a French Navy Xingu on Friday 25th, first Aeronavle aircraft to land for quite some time.  Very little from the 										
RAF apart from Texans and Hawks.  Even the Typhoon, evening of Monday 14th managed to make a quiet approach and go-around, so										
was seen by few!

NOTES & ABBREVIATIONS etc

All times are quoted as ‘local’ time. As the source material is in UTC all times are converted before use. However, there is always the chance of being one hour out, no matter how hard I try and avoid mistakes, especially between March and October, the months of BST.

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 - . Limited 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, ff first flight. 'local' is a flight starting and ending at Liverpool, not landing elsewhere, n/s night stop, c/s Radio call-sign/ICAO operator code.

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 Flexijet, ORT Ortac AOC Ltd 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. Posts in this thread should NEVER be 'copy and pasted' and repeated in full or in major 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. The Excel file is available and much preferable to a print out.

Thanks are due to the many NWAN members who contribute information and images on the JLA 'daily movements threads'. Especially members with user names (in no particular order): Beemer, Philglt, Evoant, 8miles27, Airbus A346, Wadoki, Robaero, Whittle, Barfleur, Blueaircraft 79, Optimum 1878, Andy H, G-PHIL, Vanguard, Ametyst, Dovermire, Stemai, Speedy, Bulldog, Lee and a fair number of occasional others. Their information helps confirms and expands the bare-bones detail of the official record, making the monthly movements an accurate and complete summary of visiting aircraft activity.

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 1956 to continue unbroken.
