Jet2 Flight LS377 Belfast to Murcia service operated by Boeing 737-300, G-CELV has just diverted to Leeds/Bradford due to a technical problem.

The aircraft was heading southbound overhead Northern France before making a U-turn and diverting into LBA. The passengers have now been moved on to a replacement aircraft (B737-300, G-CELS) which has now departed to Alicante as LS377A.

Eastern Airways flight T3751 from Aberdeen to Humberside operated by BAe Jetstream 14, G-MAJU diverted into LBA yesterday morning for operational reasons.

Jet2.com Boeing 737-300, G-CELB operating the inbound LS286 service from Geneva last night made a missed approach and go around. Afterwards he climbed back up to 5000ft and headed back towards the LBA overhead hold and said he may have to divert.

A few minutes later they reported that they had a flap problem but said that they would make a 2nd attempt at landing at LBA. So they were vectored for a 12 mile final approach onto Runway 32 and mentioned to ATC that they would be making a high speed approach without the use of his flaps.

The LBA fire crews was put on standby but were not needed, After the aircraft made a safe landing.

One divert from Yesterday that did'nt get mentioned.

Jet2 flight LS801M from Manchester to Venice operated by Boeing 757-200, G-LSAG diverted into LBA this morning due to a suspect tech fault.

It later departed after been check out.

One of the Chinese ones. I didn't expect them to stay with LS as long as they have; in other forums they got slated a lot for various reasons.

Seems they may have had some love and attention as I've seen them op on the MAN-TLV before now, and they go eastbound to Turkey/Cyprus etc regularly.
