A bit more nostalgia for us oldies:
GATWICK NEWS
Two first visits today.
EC-OKI A320 (7808 ex VN-A571, VP-CCS, OE-IOF) Vueling from/to Alicante this morning. It won¡¯t have gone unnoticed that in recent months Vueling has been acquiring a number of second-hand A320s. These are due to the? carrier having to gradually hand over their A20Ns to Iberia. I have attempted to put together a list of these ¡°new¡± A320s & their whereabouts at the end of the roundup.
N2193J A21N (12274) JetBlue from/to Boston this morning/lunchtime
Photos of both of today¡¯s newcomers from Dave Long may be found at??
Lear 45 C-GNVI departed to Keflavik at lunchtime & Uganda A/L A338 5X-CRN made its second visit this afternoon.
