VISITORS
Two new biz jets for us today. VistaJet CL605 OE-INM (5878) arrived from Budapest in the early hours, while Citation 560XLS D-CSEB (6093) registered to Adolf Wurth GmbH appeared at a more civilised time this morning, arriving from Schwabisch Hall & departing to Dortmund.
Second visits were made by B738s LN-NIC & TC-JHN.
If today's Austrian Challenger sounds familiar, it is because we have already seen the following ones in the OE-INA to INZ batch at Gatwick:
OE-IND/F/J/K/N/P/S/T/U/X/Y, which still leave OE-INA/B/G/H to visit

FLEET NEWS
Aerosvit B734 UR-VVP (26290) was ferried from Kiev to Shannon today on return to the lessor.
British A/W A388 G-XLEB (121) made its first flight today as F-WWAY.
Rossiya B735 EI-CDG (25738), which was registered to Nordic Aviation Capital as OY-EDO on 22/1, was ferried from Billund to Kemble today for scrapping.
Thomson A/W B763s G-DBLA (26063), G-OOAN (26256) & G-PJLO (26064) had been due to leave the fleet this year for scrapping, but are now to be converted to freighters. The first to go will be G-OOAN, which will be ferried to Singapore for conversion at the beginning of March.
THY A321 TC-JSF (5465) made its first flight today as D-AZAC.
