This completes the visiting aircraft and interesting airliners JLA log for February 2023.
SOME REFLECTIONS ON FEBRUARY 2023s MOVEMENTS
Like January despite spells of 'non-aviation' weather, February has had a fair number of visitors, with busiest day by far on Tuesday 21st with Liverpool FC facing Real Madrid, yet again. Both Iberia (A.350-900) and Iberojet (A.330-900) brought in the initial wide-body visitors of the year.
Unfortunately this could be last busy European competition day at JLA for some time, with LFC being out of both domestic Cup competitions, almost
certainly out of the European Cup and struggling to make the top places in the Premiership.
Appearances on go-around by the RAF A.400M Atlas fleet have been regular so far this year. Good to see a Posidon MRA.1 on 21st. The RAF
BAe. Hawk T.2 fleet was grounded in early January while an engine issue is corrected. Just the one RAF Hawk on go-around all month (on 14th) however, there was a Qatari example (8th) from Leeming where Qatar Air Force pilots are converting to the new type.
Ad-hoc freight movements have continued all month, mostly operated by Fleetair, Flightline, Bin Air and Fly 7 Finland. Vulkan Air Antonov An-26Bs
appeared on 8th, 13th and 14th, sometimes staying for a few days. Long may this sequence of mostly motor vehicle component flights continue.
A fair few light GA aircraft around for a winter month. The Shropshire Aero Club clearly have a group of pilots training for their Night Rating, using
JLA's facilities for a night approach and go-around flying from Sleap. A couple of lengthy flights in smaller aircraft are worthy of record, with DA.62 2-SALE apparently arriving from Grenoble on 5th and Cirrus SR.22 N226CL from Zurich on 20th then a few days later out as far as Osnabruck, Germany, while at least the pilot in PC-12 G-PKHA on 19th and 21st could stand and stretch his legs while en route to and from Bilbao!
Registration nationalities of note are currently cropping up almost monthly. In February (20th) it was a first call at JLA for UP-, the designator for Kazakhstan.
Just before posting I ran through the log looking at the ICAO and military 3-letter codes and their spoken translation as call-signs. Remarkably in the 4 weeks of February there are around 60 different operator codes and the spoken form recorded as being used by aircraft into JLA. I started recording the call-signs at a time when I was able to follow movements on the airband and had a need to know what was about to expect inbound. Does anyone still listen to Approach and Tower, or does everyone now simply use tracking sites?
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.
From April '22, I'm also using the official IATA airfield codes for overseas airport where there is not enough space for the city and airport
name eg Milan/BGY is Bergamo; Paris/LBG Le Bourget; Paris/CDG Charles de Gaulle; Oslo/OSL Gardermoen; Stockholm/ARL Arlanda; Stockholm/BMA Bromma etc. Most are well known IATA codes and straightforward in translation as the city name will be in full, the abbreviation being just for the airport.
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 matching the 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 number, the same flight number/call-sign was used both in- and
out- bound. The ICAO 3-leter designator is translated into word form as a callsign just for the first entry of that designator each month.
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 Flexjet, ORT Ortac 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 simply 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 aircraft 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.
Thanks are due to the many NWAN members who contribute information and images on the JLA 'daily movements threads'. Especially members with
usernames (in no particular order): Beemer, Philglt, Evoant, 8miles27, Airbus A346, Wadoki, Robaero, Whittle, Agate, Bluefox, Barfleur,
Blueaircraft 79, Optimum 1878, Andy H, G-PHIL, Vanguard, Ametyst, Dovermire, Stemai, Speedy, Bulldog, Lee and a fair number of others. Their information helps to confirm and expand the bare-bones detail of the official record, making the monthly movements an accurate, detailed and informative 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 detailed monthly records since 1956 to continue unbroken, a quite remarkable 66 years!
