Little BAe 125-800A took off from Riyadh. It's range is enough to reach Farnborough ;)

TBH I don’t think we will see much incoming air traffic because of the 2 week quarantine currently in force

 

As if the billionaires will be arsed about something that is basically impossible to enforce and results in a pocket change fine if you do.

There's no way this is of any real interest, but just because it tickles a particular NUFC fantasy...

Big helicopter (Sikorsky S-92A) has come up from Humberside, along the coast, done a loop and is now heading inland back towards Newcastle International.

Hmmmm... The helicopter flew down the length of Newcastle Airport's runway at 350ft and continued west.  It then turned south-east and overflow St James Park, before doing a 180 degree turn and is now flying north-west.

 

This is not a regular flight; this is a very big, very expensive helicopter doing some weird tourist type flight.

I saw a lot of them hovering over and around Aberdeen earlier this morning (on Flightradar), along with some Belgian helicopters the same size. At first I thought of some sort of safety drill or certification tests for pilots.
