Hey, this is my first post!

Does Anybody know what the bad weather was?Strong Crosswinds?As I dont remember it being particularly bad last night!

Also, does anybody know the reg. of the 757 that was standing in for thomsonfly at Bournemouth today?

Thanks

BOH :D

I was a bit confused about the bad weather comments also :confused:

The B752 was G-BYAD I believe BOH.

Between 2200 and 2330 last night the RVR at BOH was at times down to 500m with cloud overcast at 100'. Both TOM966 and TOM734 held waiting for weather improvement. TOM966 eventually made a missed approach and diverted to LGW. TOM734 managed to get in about 20 minutes later.

I don't follow what has been happening today. TOM715/716 to VLC was about 2.5hrs late (presumably having positioned back from LGW?). Returned to BOH about 14:30. By the time the TOM885/886 operated the CDG flight the delay was up to 3.5hrs. Landing back at BOH at 20:20. TOM965 departed for AMS at 21:30 due back at midnight. Which flights has the B757 operated? It doesn't seem to have helped reduce the delays?

Not sure why but the B733 that positioned in from LGW came in about an hr or something later than was planned, which meant the VLC was delayed. Last I heard the B752 was going to operate the Paris and Amsterdam but that could have changed. A poor day for TOM @ BOH in terms of punctuality :confused:

the visibility caused 1 flight to divert.

crew for next mornings flight taxied to Gatwick to fly plane empty to BOH which meant they ran out of their hours sooner than normal. In order to avoid cancelling flights they brought in a B752.

what about standby B733 crews at BOH i ask myself?!

They had an empty B733 sitting around all afternoon!

bmibaby had a diversion into BOH yesterday from manchester. Fuel and go. Nice to see on the apron with two TOM B733's and B752!

Why was the BMI Baby Diverted into BOH??It is nice to see Bournemouth finaly get some real traffic!Saturday lunch time seemed so wierd with all the flights coming and going!:ok:

BOH

All this action AND 2 Emerald 748s dashing back & fore to the islands every day! What an airport!

The BMI Baby diversion was because of fog in Jersey.

Whats with the European flight EAF531 from Jersey tonight at 21:30?

Cheers

BOH

What do you mean what's with it??! :confused:

I believe it is a weekly day trip flight, aircraft departs BOH early and returns in the evening.

The EAF Jersey is a Palmair day trip. If you go to the bath travel website and click on the Palmair tab you can look at everything Palmair does from BOH. This will give you the dates etc..

The main reason for this flight is to position the aircraft at Jersey to operate a charter onbehalf of a CI tour operator. The day trips are just to make use of the craft but appear to do ok.:ok:

...today I believe it spent the day ex JER going to ACE (Lanzarote) and back.

VLM, BA and Flybe diversions at BOH now as fog at SOU.

This will be an interesting lunch time with the peak AX/LS/FR and TOM flights as well.

Also there was a Beechcraft 200 diverted from Southampton to add to the diversions.

Jet2 had an Air Execl 737 today

All in all a very good day for Bournemouth

What flybe flights/aircraft diverted to Bournemouth today?

Can the cash machine cope? ;)

Oh, good God!:hmm:
