VISITORS
Yet another good day for first visits with a further four to report. Arriving & departing early in the morning was TUI A/L Belgium/Jetairfly B738 OO-JAH (37260), which positioned in from Brussels & operated a charter to Kiev, doubtless in connection with this evening's football match between England & Sweden, especially as it is due back from Kiev very early tomorrow morning. Also arriving early from Beijing was Air China A332 B-6536 (1260) the 15th example that we have seen here. The other morning newcomer was Omni Air International B763 N378AX (28147 ex G-OITL, I-DEIL), operating the inaugural Caribbean A/L service from Port of Spain via St Lucia. Gulfstream 450 N111CQ (4006 ex N166GA) registered to Wilmington Trust Co made its Gatwick debut this afternoon arriving from Teterboro.
Only the one second visit to mention today & that was by CL605 OE-INN.

FLEET NEWS
Air Berlin A319 D-ABGQ (3700) was ferried from Berlin/Tegel to Barcelona today as EC-LRZ on delivery to Vueling. 
Belavia B733 EW-336PA (26312 ex N14383, G-BZZG, G-TOYC, VQ-BHD) was delivered from Shannon to Minsk today.
Lufthansa A320 D-AIZL (5181) was delivered from Finkenwerder to Munich today.
Onur Air. Delivery of A320 TC-OBU (0661 ex D-ALAD, N603AW, EI-EEI) from Dublin to Istanbul was delayed from 13/6 to yesterday.

ROUTE NEWS
None today.

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS
THIS WILL BE MY LAST ROUNDUP UNTIL 24/6 AS I AM ABOUT TO EMBARK ON ANOTHER FOREIGN TRIP

As there will be no nostalgia corner this Sunday so, by way of a change, a list of visitors to Gatwick this month 50 years ago appears instead after today's movements. The airport was very much still in its infancy at the time, having been open for only four years, & that is reflected in the relatively small number of movements compared even to just a few years later.

Further to yesterday, NetJets have also ordered 25 of the new Cessna Latitudes, with options for a further 125. Thanks to Mr Anon for the link below:
