VISITORS
Two new airliners visited us this morning. First in was THY A320 TC-JPI (3208) on the morning flight from Istanbul/Ataturk & was followed late morning by Aerosvit B737 UR-AAQ (28013 ex OY-MRH). In common with UR-AAP, which visited a week ago, it still wore a red Cimber Sterling scheme with Sterling titles. 
Making its second visit was Virgin Atlantic A346 G-VSHY (see below).

FLEET NEWS
EasyJet A320 G-EZWC (5236) made its first flight today as D-AVVX.
Virgin Atlantic A346 G-VSHY (383) emerged all white from Air Livery at Manchester today. After leaving Manchester & flying several race track patterns off the west coast of Cornwall it landed at Gatwick this afternoon. The seats are to be removed overnight & it will then go to Airbus as an A350 testbed. This was only the aircraft's second visit to Gatwick, the other being on 17/06/03, when it diverted in from LHR. 

ROUTE NEWS 
None today.

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS
Gulfstream 450 G-SADC (4027) was cancelled from the register yesterday as exported to Germany.
