VISITORS
Air Berlin B738 D-ABKJ (37749) was our only newcomer, operating the morning service from Nuremberg & then returning on the evening flight. As a by the way, this is the 100th different Air Berlin aircraft to visit us since they started scheduled services to Gatwick just less than a year ago (14xA319, 27xA320, 2xA321, 1xA330, 21xB737, 26xB738, 9xDH8D).

A small correction to yesterday - B738 G-TAWF was actually on its third visit, having popped in briefly in the early hours of 5/10. Thanks to Mike Hooker for noticing.

FLEET NEWS
None today.

ROUTE NEWS 
Caribbean A/L. The government of Grenada is understood to have entered into talks with the carrier regarding the possibility of operating a service between Grenada & Gatwick following British Airways' announcement that it is to reduce its service to the island from two to one weekly.

Just a few NAX flights for tomorrow - 10G/DYX (also 12J), 32A/DYG, 34G/NOQ, 36C/DYT, 38W/KHB, 51M/NOG, 55Q/NIB, 4441/NOR, 5818/NOF

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS
The gremlins managed to get into my list of PC-12s yesterday. G-GVJB should read F-GVJB & the date for M-ARTY should read 20/05/12.
