    Yes Adam, Basically nothing!, A FLT Md83 due around 0800, 2x iberia and a Girjet later tonight (tues)
    Will post what info has appeared by later tonight for GLA and PIK, there appears now to be a hell of a lot more coming to Glasgow than reported of late, but waiting for some sort of confirmation.

    There seems to be a fair bit of confusion now about what is going where.

    on Weds GLA will have (i think) 8 non british aircraft day stopping 2x Futura 738’s, 2x Air Europa 738’s, 2x Corsair 744’s, 1x Girjet 757 1x Futura 738(possibly one more),an Iberworld A320 in 0630 out 0720 and an LTE A320 in 2120 out 2210 (odd time), plus some biz.The rest made up of various Excel and Monarchs.

    Most of the above appear in the Edinburgh list also, so no idea if EDI will actually have much traffic,now :confused: still awaiting a wee bit of clarification from them in the know.
    Wont bother posting the EDI info until it is a bit clearer.
    Hope this is of use to some of you.

    Thanks for info, good that i’ve got a day off, i’ll spend whole day at the airport (except for a lunch break after the Emirates arr) 😀

    No probs, actually by the time Emirates arrives (late… as usual) everything that is coming in will already be in (bar maybe a couple of biz)

    A fine set there, Jamie.
    I took the liberty of having a fiddle in photoshop with one, simply by lightening shadows and a touch of fiddle with the saturation came up with:

    Unfortunate thing is it can look over processed
    TBH, i feel you can’t do too much to an image that is shot in poor lighting anyway.
    Am sure there are some real officionados of the art that can give you good pointers.

    Hi FRIKPL
    My understanding is first CRL 744 is tuesday in at 1250.. no departure time
    Weds: XL 743 in at 0810, CRL 744 in at 0810, XL 743 in at 0910 and CRL 744 in at 1210 all day stopping.

    as Jamie said,Dazza. not much expected at PIK tbh, but, i would personally advise that EDI is probably best place to be, far better quality of stuff, GLA looks to be mostly Monarch and Excel stuff with maybe 6 or 7 Spanish, and the Corsair and Excel lumps, which are day stopping anyway, so, no worries of missing them.
    PS PM sent Dazza
