VISITORS
Newcomers today started with Travel Service B738 OK-TVO (32360), which positioned in early this morning from Bratislava & operated a service to/from Kalamata before ferrying back to Bratislava. Also positioning in to operate a flight was OLT Express A320 SP-IAF (2712 ex A6-ABE), which undertook a Strategic A/L flight to Larnaca. Our third morning newcomer was Orbest A320 EC-LRT (3933 ex EC-LAQ, VT-WAO), stopping here en route from Aberdeen to Las Palmas. Citation 525A OE-FOA (054) Avcon Jet also made its first visit at lunchtime, arriving from Farnborough.
Swiss Jet D328JET HB-AEU (3199 ex N328PT, I-AIRH, N328PT, OE-HCM) is reportedly due to arrive on a first visit later this evening, though there doesn't appear to be a flight plan for it at this time.
On second visits today were Air Berlin B738 D-ABMC (which flew a service to/from Kos), Ryanair B738 EI-EVC, THY A320 TC-JPY & BD700 VP-BEB.
Making the day for me was watching Ukraine Air Enterprise Il62M UR-86528 climbing out this morning - ah, that noise & smoke!
