Manchester Airport Forum | MAN movements Aug into Sept..

Thanks folks..

Tracking the QR46.

Looks like he is having a few issues avoiding the storms.

Libyan due to start on 4th Sep 3 weekly

Who is handling Libyan?

World-Rep, Your right about QR46 a rather interesting route.

Not sure, I couldn't even get their booking form to work online.



Same as before, Servisair

Hi,
Has the latest titan 757 (G-POWH) arrived for maintenance or to be sprayed up?.

Cheers Rick.

Come in as MON376P so prob in to do the delayed MON1376 to Venice.

G-POWH departed 0955

Hi,
Thanks Betablockeruk for your reply, I saw it depart on FR24. The reason I "assumed" it was due in for maintenance with Monarch is because like you said it came in as MON376P. When a call sign ends in "P" I always thought it ment positioning in.

Sometimes this Aviation talk confuses me.

Cheers Rick.

It did position in empty to do the MON1376. Will be back later at 1505 on the MON1377.

Rick

An aircraft will never position in for maintenance with Monarch callsigns unless it is a Monarch aircraft.
It would position in under its own airlines callsign.

Dave..............

IT MIGHT BE DOING THIS ROUTE DUE TO THE STORM IN THE STATES

Theres a IWD A330 in tomorrow (friday) its in at around 1500 i think it may be coming for painting.

Steve

This is on MAN arrivals

IWD3676 14:45 Tenerife

no depature showing.

Hi all

does anyone know the best location to see the A380 land? I've been to the viewing park and the area around 23L, and I never made it to where the mounds were opposite the pub on 23R.

Thanks, Jamlidd.

Jamlidd correct me if im wrong but I think the mounds have gone. I can suggest if you book a room at the airport hotel you can see it really well and avoids the high fence

From steve platt's last months movements thread post and movements on plane mad -
VDA1860 Antonov AN124
Arr: Saturday 8th September 20:30
Dep: Sunday 9th September 14:00 approx.
I say approx because ADB 124 departed quite a considerable time after its scheduled departure time.

These flights never depart to schedule!! If you witnessed what i have witnessed with the crew you would no why they never leave on time!!!!

oops! now ive just realised sorry about that I need think more as I should know from Cathay at MAN. But really no need for !!!'s

amen to that! Drink, duty free, and excess baggage worthy of a Saudi princess with all sorts of stuff getting 'smuggled' aboard.

I've heard of washing machines before now!

One of the Saudi hercs we had a while back took a double mattress back with it...

Another Iberworld today, this time from Palma:

T1 IWD3677 17:00 Palma Scheduled 17:00

Presuming this is the same A330 that operated yesterdays flight? Any more info.

i don't know if it's coming back but IWD3678 took off about 30 minutes ago reg was cs-tra an orbest a330

oh ok it's just that a white a330 took off from man and i look through by bin's thought what was that so i put flight 24 on and tracked it that way the reg it gave was cs-tra so thanks for the update

Quite a lot of delays today:

Small Planet -
Friday, 31 August 2012
T1 LLC229 15:00 Corfu Due at Sat 01 Sep 15:15

Thomson B767 -
T2 TOM195 07:15 Aruba Estimated 23:59

PIA -
T2 PK711 11:00 Karachi Estimated Sun 02 Sep 01:55

Jet2 -
T1 LS884 13:15 Pisa Estimated 18:00

Monarch -
T2 MON1875 15:35 Mitilini-Lesbos Estimated Sun 02 Sep 01:50

That's regular, been doing it for a while goes out as SW95E.

Small Planet nicked the aircraft that was supposed to do that flight for an LGW flight, then it went tech in LGW.



Due to the ATR that slid off the runway I believe

New bird A6-EGW on this mornings EK21.

Another Eurolot Dash-8 at 1130, C-GPYN.

FINNAIR E190 Went tech still on ground.awaits AOG

presume this reason


good luck the bimbo

G-LGNE Saab 340 just arrived operating the Loganair flight from Norwich in place of the normal Dornier 328.

TCX2192 has just returned to MAN under a 'PAN' emergency. Left MAN at 9.30 this morning going to Kefallinia but only got as far as Amsterdam - G-TCBB Boeing B757-200. Landed on 23L.

TS-INN operating LAA106 - Now due at 14.00 - Nouvelair A/C but in full Libyan colours.

I've heard a rumour that the Vulcan may do a fly by at MAN on Sunday before heading to Southport for the air show. Can anyone shed more light on this please?

Only that there's another thread, Vulcan 9th Sept

no way. If a vulcan is doing fly be in the afternoon i will be able see it does anyone have a time?

Weird one on arrivals and departures tomorrow!

HK8746 09:00 Amsterdam departure
HK8747 18:40 Amsterdam arrival

HK= Höga Kusten Flyg of Sweden... who contract Golden Air who operate 6 Saab 2000s

Perhaps this is a big mistake and may be Transavia whose code is HV and so positioning flight to come in 40 mins before 0900 and depart 40 mins after 1840?

David

HK is the prefix for Hamburg Airways ..... it is an A319

Dave........

Ah. Got my info from the airline codes website!

G-VMEG A340-600 due 20:00

Is this going into new colours or an end of life white?

The Antonov due on saturday has been delayed again by another week!!!

VDA1860 Due 15/9/12 Arr 2030
VDA1860 Departs 16/9/12 at 1400 now!!

3rd time lucky!!!

Steve

Most LH flights from MUC, FRA and Berlin are cancelled tomorrow due to a LH Cabin crew strike!

On finals now.

Airline: Hamburg Airways
Aircraft: Airbus A319-112 (A319)
Reg: D-AHHE

Exciting stuff, makes me wish i lived nearer MAN...... i shouldnt complain though as i have LGW and LHR in easy reach, hope you get great photos.

G-VMEG 15 mins away

The VIR A346 was inbound from Manila, flight time just shy of 15 hours. Ouch!

Also in today was 738 CFTLK in Hapag Lloyd scheme operating for TOM.

Qatar are operating a B777 on tomorrow afternoon's flight, QR45/46.

Antonov Delayed again...... Now operating in on 18th sept and out on 19th sept..... !8 days delayed Wow

Dash-8 landed on one engine around 1530.

Ive been told by some spotters that an Antonov 225 is due in to bring parts for the new control tower thats being built, can someone give info?

Gregster i have replied in the thread you opened.

Emmas dad..... i witnessed the Fly be landing it didnt half look strange flying over me with just 1 engine going round..... i sight ive never seen (and dont want to see again) before.... im just glad all was ok.

The Qatar B773 is A7-BAI

Same here - phew! ATC closed the runway for about fifteen minutes before it landed and three of the four or so flights waiting to go were told to shut down one engine to save fuel if they liked, the aircraft at the front of the queue also asked if he should shut one down and was told 'only if you can start it again in a hurry', to which I think he replied - 'oh'!

Great response by the fire crews, the fire chief was on and was the epitome of professionalism.

According to FR24 AA54 is just coming over the isle of man, why such a delay!

steve platt - the thread was deleted so can you tell me on here?

Air France Retrojet just coming in now if anyones intrested

AA55 taking an unusual route back over Stockport then north?

EC-HDS operating for TCX to reus, when and why have TCX leased this in?

G-FCLC B757 has left the Thomas cook fleet an is presently in the hangar on maintenance preparing to depart to the USA for cargo conversion then onto Fedex

Tomorrow's Qatar 45/46 in the afternoon is a B773 A7-BAK.

Hong Kong airlines A330-200 due in on 17th operating a charter to/from Madrid

Arrives 1300 on 17th from LGW then departs 1300 to Madrid

Arrives back from Madrid on 18th at 0220 then back to LGW at 0320.

Man City in the CL against Real Madrid?

World-rep can you confirm the times for 17th, think there's a typo in there - thanks

It departs at 1400 not 1300 on 17th. Typo so apologies.

Hi everyone

A Chinook landed at Manchester today just off 23R, does anyone have a reason why it appeared? I've recorded it landing so I've put that in the videos page.

Thanks, Jamlidd.

The Chinook was in for crew training

Hi can someone please tell me, why have planes not been landing on runway 2 over Knutsford Cheshire a for a while; Plane spotter.

There have been very few easterly winds this summer so therefore no use of 05R

Why was only one runway in use?

A7-BAK Qatar B777 on todays flight lunch time

Qatar 777 was A7-BAI by the way chaps!

It was A7-BAK today. BAI cam in on sunday.

What is problem with fuel at Manchester as N310GJ has got to go to Liverpool to pick some up and then return for his pax? nothing to do with OCS is it?

Turkish sending an A330-200 for the MUFC-Galatasaray match

TK3301 arrives 1355 on 18th, departs as TK3301 at 1455

Then on 19th

TK3301 arrives 2255, departs as TK3302 at 2355

nice to see Qatar airways use B777-300ER for a change i wondor if there planning to use it daily they must be gettin bored of using a330s lol unless its an upgrade till they get 787-8 on the route.

It was something to do with esso and a lack of refuellers, or something like that.

I thought OCS fuelled their own 'contracts' at Manchester?

There was some issues with fuel yesterday earlier in the day, the fire alarm was going off in the fuel farm so they had to turn off the pumps, not sure if it was this again?

Could anyone tell me what operated the tcx flight to palma majorca this morning, i think the scheduled departure time is 6.25?

help would be appreciated

Thanks

Depends who handled it. Parked 101 and passenger was a bit 'Gaga'.

CS-TLO currently inbound (763, Euroatlantic) to nightstop and operate at 10am for Monarch to Sharm on Saturday

Seems MON are short of planes again as G-MONK B752 operated MON668 to Dalaman in place of the usual A300. The return flight is being split into 2 flights with G-MONK operating MON669. MON8467 also from Dalaman is the 2nd flight but have no idea on what aircraft will operate the route.

Also tomorrow CS-TLO will operate MON684 to Sharm as whitehatter has posted above in place of the normal A300 but there is also a 2nd flight to Sharm as MON8470 departing at 14.40. This is because if the A300 was full thats 352 passengers. CS-TLO can only take 250 so that must be the reason for the 2nd flight to take the remaining passengers that CS-TLO can't take.

They also have leased I-NEOW B738 but will be BHX based.

Hi everyone

Today's pax figures from selected flights.

QR041 260 147
AA210 164 153
EY015 262 194
SQ328 159 131
EK021 412 173
US734 277 255
TK1993 141 132
UA100 164 154
LN106 101 20 not too bad inbound
EK017 513 360
QR045 256 217
TK1995 145 126
EY021 255
EK019 342

That's it, the student influx to the North West seats of learning is on judging by the inbound loads from the Middle East, Turkish still doing well and Atlantic routes as well.

Cheers from Jimsdad

LZ-MDC has just arrived at 2340hrs opps for TCX

Does anyone know if the Air Blue A340 is still coming in tomorrow, and if so, what time please

I don't know the exact time but I know its sometime after 9PM, if somebody could clear this up that would be great. Also, will the AVP leave the area open abit longer tomorrow do you think? Due to it being the planes first landing?

Another MON lease, EC-HDS due in 20 mins as MON470P.

Can someone tell me what time CN-SHS Dalia Air EMB190 landed today ?

...and last night just after 7, think there a Wideroe Dash 8 (registration ?), saw the flight on the arrivals board, but only after i had half took notice of a Dash 8 that didn't look like FlyBe landing a bit earlier on. Assume this has left by now.

Thanks

Interflug_62.
Wideroe =LN-WDH

Anyone know Fridays Lufty md reg, what was the landing like, bit windy for one of them, I was half expecting to see it again having another go?

Very odd movement on approach:

Contact Air Fokker F100 D-AFKA in OLT Express Germany colours operating LX394 from Zurich!

LY-VEU A319 operating for Monarch on approach

Any idea why all movements on the movements page have been deleted?
