VISITORS
Newcomers early this morning were Thomson A/W B738 G-TAWL (37241), which positioned in from Newcastle shortly after midnight before operating a Luxor rotation, & Falcon 2000LX I-PBRB (191 ex F-GVEL) of Sirio SpA, which at least arrived during the hours of daylight.
HS125 OM-OIG made its second visit today.

FLEET NEWS
Aer Lingus. Delete reference to A320 EI-EZG (2457) yesterday. This was actually registered to AWAS on 17/1 & is a former Jetstar aircraft & as far as I can tell has no connection whatsoever with Aer Lingus. Confusion seems to have been caused at the original source by the fact that it was at Seletar at the same time as I-EEZG (2001), which IS due to go to Aer Lingus along with I-EEZF (1983).
Titan A/W. The A320 destined for the carrier is EI-TAG (2791) of TACA. It was due to leave Washington Dulles today for Shannon & will enter service as G-POWI in the spring.

ROUTE NEWS
None today.

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS
The Gatwick Aviation Society's house journal "Hawkeye" has reached the ripe old age of 45. Following a successful prototype published in December 1967, the first production issue rolled off the press in January 1968 & the magazine has been in continuous production ever since. An annual subscription in those days would have cost you 18 shillings (& is only £20 today). To commemorate this anniversary, a list of visiting aircraft that we reported at Gatwick in January 1968 appears after today's movements.

Due tomorrow:
EC-LNA B744 eta 10.10 as PLM3121
N306JR Ce525A eta 08.15, etd 12.10 on 1/2 (first visit)
