A Couple Of Flying Visits To Birmingham My Working Day

 


    The Header says it all. Once again working around the Birmingham And Rugby area again today, so took the opportunity to make a couple of quick stops at Birmingham. Parked up today were a large number of Biz jets. I don't log these, but if it wears a bright and colourful scheme I will photograph them.

    Looking on flight radar whilst having breakfast the only ones of note to that interested me was the departure of the Wamos Air A330 Back to Madrid and the Pegasus Airbus A321Neo which would fill a nice gap in the log book.

    The following Aircraft where noted on my visits:

    TC-LTM Turkish Airlines Airbus A321Neo
    F-HBLG Air France EMB 190
    TC-SMA Sun Express Boeing 737Max8
    EC-ODQ Wamos Air Airbus A330
    TC-RFB Pegasus Airlines Airbus A321Neo
    G-CMJJ Aer Lingus Regional ATR72
    TC-SOD Sun Express Boeing 737Max8
    TC-COR Corendon Airlines Boeing 737-800
    A6-EUQ Emirates Airbus A380

A Mid Morning Drive By And Lunch Break At Birmingham

 


    Another dull day around the midlands today, low cloud ment even on Runway 15 the aircraft wasn't visible flying over todays place of work.

    whilst driving to my first job of the day I just about managed to see SP-RZH Buzz Boeing 737 Max8-200 appear through the cloud over the m6 motorway. After completing my job in Rugby I headed back into Birmingham via the airport for a quick drive past the crash gates. Afterwards I stopped for my lunch at the elmdon side.

    The following where noted over two Visits today:

    TC-JTJ Turkish Airlines Airbus A321

A Quick Pop To Birmingham For a Ukraine Boeing 737 Classic

 

    After another long day of driving all over the UK, I had seen that there was a Classic Boeing 737-300F night stopping at Birmingham. I had also been told it was nicely parked for a photograph.
So a quick detour of the M6 motorway I headed to Birmingham to see what was about.

    EI-EXE Ryanair Boeing 737-800
