Very true Jerry but a plane is not going to come all the way from Faro empty to pick up who or whatever to take them there then back to the UK surely?

Yep empty legging happens all the time even to that extent.

9H-YES
It’s not definite it was a football team, it could have been a corporate charter.
The aircraft departed Farnborough on Wednesday to Faro, and then to Leeds that afternoon. It then departed to Faro today.
Charter aircraft like these (and smaller business jets) nearly always have to operate empty legs to position an aircraft ready for the next customer. This will all be costed to the clients chartering the aircraft.

I saw the Hawk while I was stood at the bus stop in Horsforth. Not usually lucky enough to catch one of these!!

Just had one of the RAF's brand new F35-B Lighting II, ZM147 shoot the Runway 14 ILS. His callsign was "MARHAM83"

This is the types first visit to LBA and possibly to a UK civilian airport..

Sadly Norwich beat us on that one with ZM140 doing an ILS on 28/11/18

There is a 737 (or possibly Airbus, as I cannot see it clearly due to the numerous Jet2 tails in the way) parked on the Eastern apron, which is all white, or has an all white tail. Anyone know what this is? It has been there a few days. Good to see Jet2s G-LSAB back at LBA for the past couple of weeks although it seems to be spending most of its time parked on the Eastern apron too.

Thanks lbaspotter. I had assumed that was the one parked in front of Multiflight, so if not, that begs the question - which one is it that has been parked in front of their hangars for the past 2 days? I am viewing from Bramhope, but it doesn't look like a Jet2 aircraft - although the light has been poor so hard to see what it is!
