    I think it means Private, as in the flightplan is not available in the public domain.

    I will keep this thread as the main Farnborough thread if people dont mind, saves me creating a new post every day, as the amount of traffic coming on doesnt justify individual threads really.

    Sunday is usualy quite a bad day, but today was ace. First off the Eastern Airways came back, however they changed over the aircraft running the trip, and we were greeted with a JS41 instead, which arrived from Dublin, and positioned back to Leeds:

    Next was an interesting aircraft, a Piaggio P180 that had come all the way from Malta. Possibly the best German registration about 😉

    And finally another J328, and another regular one, operated by Cirrus Aviation, coming in from Pau.

    I left as they changed the runway direction, and as I got back in I got an email saying a Mexican G4 had arrived! I was understandably very irritated!

    Nope, no Gulfstreams, he prefers Global Express ones in that size range.

    Nice pics. Cant find any reference to the Saudi anywhere, any idea where it came from, as I assume its a VIP one?

    Didnt Andrew have the 146 in Finland direction

    Which is why we provide them with 2 146s, and 6 HS125s !!!

    Erm, have either of you ever flown Club on BA? I think you will find they have an adjustable middle seat which can be adjusted to create as large or as small a Club cabin as they like. Hence the reason why some flights are Club: 70 Economy: 70 and some Club: 10 Economy 130 😀

    If they could fill an A320 with club pax, and another one flying at the same time with economy pax, they might as well fly a 767 on the route. At the moment I believe BA have the balance quite finely tuned, with Club demand being greater on certain flights than leisure demand, and vice versa. All this neatly ties into one aircraft, thereby cutting the costs.

    Running two aircraft on the same route at the same time, especially on such a short sector is quite uneconomic.

    Nice shots Rob. Easterlies are definitly the best, although 24 landing shots are sometimes possible if they roll right to the end.
