ZK304 FM " 42
ZK309 QO-P " 43
ZK346 ER " 44
G-MAJD eastern 102 depart
30 + 47 bobbin 52
30 + 62 " 54
ZJ912 DR minx 15
ZJ924 924 " 16

31 + 20 aces 71
30 + 51 " 72
G-MAJD eastern 103 L (departed as 104)

Left around 4.30pm.

Can anyone confirm album 13/14 as ZJ812 came back with ZJ930 so I assume one of them was playing catch up.

Good to see some of the banter bandits on the mound (you know who you are :whistle: ).

Captain Scarlet is indestructable, you are not! Remember this, do not try to imitate him.

I noted BL on the end of the line this afternoon - the serial was blocked from view. That's supposed to be in a hangar as a training aid, having been WFU'd. Can't imagine that somebody's recoded an aircraft as BL as everything seems to be going numeric; I presume '813 is out in the open for some reason?
