Unexpected Visit To Birmingham

 

So as per everyday I’m always first up on my household. Make a fresh coffee or two whilst scanning through email checking on Facebook and or course the check to see what’s arriving at Birmingham. Today three arrivals caught my eye. The first one being the brand new (even maybe first revenue flight) Ryanair Boeing 737 Max8-200 EI-ILF. Sadly this one had already come and gone. The second of the three was La Compagnie Airbus A321Neo F-HNCO  which was arriving from New York Newark, And finally another first visit for an aircraft was former China Airlines Cargo Boeing 747-400F TF-AKG now operated by Network Aviation. But with this running a little late this too was sadly missed.

So just a very small log, because by the time I got there all the morning holiday flight had long gone leaving a very quiet airport.
