Other morning newcomers were Augsburg A/W E195 D-AEMF (19000310), which arrived from Munich to operate a charter to Ljubljana & was followed by Titan's "new" B752 G-POWH (29308 ex EC-HIR, TC-OGT), arriving from Stansted to sub for Monarch on a flight to Dalaman (still in polar bear scheme). THY A319 TC-JLT (4665) operated this afternoon's service from Istanbul/Ataturk & is only the second THY A319 to visit so far.

John,  The mistery aircraft photo's - these are part of the Street Art exhibition that opened on Saturday at the London Pleasure Gardens as part of the London 2012 Festival at Pontoon Park in London Docklands. Supposedly there are the painted cockpits sections of a B747 and a "military bomber", although neither of these look like a B747!  The purple painted one is a BAe146.
