VISITORS
S-76C M-JCBA (760807 ex N807A, M-OMOO) of JC Bamford Excavators made its first visit this morning, while Gulf 4 N999AA (1286 ex N480GA, N286GA, N464SP, N4SP, N464SP, N880G, N192NC, N192N, N7LA) of Ascend Performance Materials appeared unexpectedly this afternoon. Despite these, we remain on course for the lowest monthly total of first visits of 2012.
There were, however, a plethora of second visits - Citation 680 LN-SSS, Gulfstream 5 N508QS, PC-12 OO-GEE, Enter Air B734 SP-ENI & Aeronexus B762 ZS-DJI, which returned to its current base at Manston after dropping off Chelsea FC on their return from Japan.
