VISITORS
Falcon 900DX G-TAGK (614 ex VP-CHA) of TAG Aviation made its first visit to Gatwick this morning. The second newcomer was Meridiana Fly A320 EI-EZR (1198 ex EI-CUK, I-PEKP, N267AV), which positioned in from Milan/Malpensa this afternoon to operate a Thomas Cook flight to Antalya.
Making a second visit was Ryanair B738 EI-ESZ
Cosmo A320 LY-COM continues to visit on an almost daily basis subbing for Strategic A/L. What is interesting are the flights that it does in between & it has arrived here during the last few days as ENT354P, EXS44R, GRL933, NLV9628 & TFL224P plus, of course, with STU callsigns. That is one busy airplane!

FLEET NEWS
Air Europa B738 EC-LQX (36589) left Boeing Field today on delivery to Palma.
EasyJet A319 G-EZEP (2251) entered the paint shop at Southend on 17/7 & is to become CC-AFZ with Sky A/L.
Emirates B773 A6-EGV (38990) made its first flight today.

ROUTE NEWS 
Hong Kong A/L is cutting back on its services to Gatwick & is likely to pull off the route completely in the not too distant future. This morning's flight was cancelled as, reportedly, are the inbounds on the following dates - 11/7, 19/7, 23/7, 24/7, 25/7, 29/7, 1/8, 5/8, 6/8, 7/8, 8/8, 9/8, 12/8, 14/8, 15/8, 16/8, 17/8, 20/8 & 21/8.

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS
New registrations have come to light for a couple of recently cancelled biz jets. HS125 G-CFBP has become N700KL & Citation 680 G-SIRJ is now N997C.

Thanks to those who advised me that "Inside Gatwick" is a repeat & not a new series. As I don't have Sky TV it passed me by the first time.

Due tomorrow:
G-GMAB HS125 eta 17.00 as GMA745
G-IKOS Ce550 eta 09.25, etd 17.50
NAX flights - 10G/NOO, 12J/NOV, 32A/DYG, 36C/KKJ, 38W/NOH, 51M/DYK, 55Q/NOW, 4441/NOJ, 5818/NOG
