VISITORS
Regrettably nothing new today & the only aircraft making its second visit was THY A321 TC-JRO.

FLEET NEWS
British A/W World Cargo/Global Supply Systems B744F G-GSSC (29255) was registered to Atlas Air as N477MC yesterday rather than reverting to N494MC as had been expected.
Cubana may have switched from using their own Il-96s to Euro Atlantic B763s on the weekly service from Havana just as they did in 2009/2010. The inbound service to Gatwick this morning was operated by CS-TFT (26208), while CS-TFS (25411) positioned in to operate the return leg. Time will no doubt tell.
Flybe E145 G-EMBY (145617) was ferried from Exeter to Bournemouth today prior to delivery to Odengene Air Shuttle Services of Nigeria.
Ryanair B738 EI-EVE (35035) arrived at Dublin today on delivery. EI-EVH (40290) made its first flight today.
Thomson A/W B752 G-BYAP (27236) was ferried from Gatwick to Shannon as TOM9028 today prior to delivery to Allegiant Air as N906NV.
Virgin Atlantic. The majority of the B744 fleet is to be fitted with new seats, IFE, etc this year. The one exception will be G-VTOP (28194), which will leave the fleet before the end of this year. The first three-class A333 is due for delivery in the spring, with Delhi rumoured as one of its earliest routes.

ROUTE NEWS
None today.
