On one day a week (i think) there is the BA2028 IAH-LGW, arrives slightly earlier than the regular BA2026.

There is indeed, during the summer on a Tuesday only however it seemed to operate with an oddball callsign like the similar

BAW61T was BA2166 TPA-LGW
BAW2AG was BA2226 ATL-LGW.

I just wondered what the callsign was as it does not seem to have been "Speedbird 2028". I'm just curious.

Any offers on the others from Manchester?

cheers lads
