Freight?
Return charters today BA8581 G-NEOV & BA8583 G-EUUB

Obviously not freight - any thoughts?
BA cargo flights start with a 3. That includes the use of passenger aircraft (see the transatlantic 777/787 flights to KGSP and the flights to GLA from Bangkok)

The recent BA cargo flights from BKK have been using 83 as the first 2 digits of the flight number.

Just checked FR24, so it came in with Real Mardrid, then flew back to Madrid, then changed crew and flew back to pick up Real Madrid and is currently awaiting return to Madrid ? What a way to use gas !

The 0550 EGPK weather was reporting RVR 150m

The aircraft was very high and had to orbit for a 05 approach so was probably diverting from Prestwick

2nd KC135R inbound from Mildenhall, the positively youthful 58-year old 62-3540. Rescue mission for the first?
