VISITORS
Three more first visits already today with a fourth due later. Arriving early this morning was Italian A/F Falcon 900EX MM62245 (156). It arrived from Rome/Ciampino & for some reason routed back there via Cagliari, Bari & Genoa! That was followed late morning by yet another new easyJet A320, G-EZUU (5150). This had been due for delivery from Finkenwerder to Bristol on Thursday & then again on Friday, but the delay resulted in it being sent here instead. As is the custom with easyJet deliveries, it was immediately pressed into service, operating a Nice rotation before departing to Pisa from where it is due back later this evening. The third newcomer was Citation 560XLS YU-SPB (5807 ex SE-RGS) registered to Prince Aviation, which arrived early evening from Moscow/Vnukovo. The final newcomer is due to be Korean Air B772 HL7531 (27946) on today's service from Seoul.
Lufthansa A319 D-AILU, Small Planet A/L B733 LY-FLJ & Citation 525A OM-OPE all made their second visits.

FLEET NEWS
EasyJet. After a delay of two days, A320 G-EZUU (5150) was finally delivered from Finkenwerder but, luckily for us, to Gatwick instead of the originally intended Bristol.
Flybe DH8D G-JEDL (4067) is thought to have flown its last revenue service on 10/5 & then ferried from Birmingham to East Midlands for painting all white. It is due at Exeter on 18/5 for the start of its hand-back checks, which are due for completion on 8/6.  
Thomson A/W B738 G-CDZL (30465) was cancelled from the register yesterday & is to join El Al as 4X-EKM.
