Queen's Funeral visitors thread.

Unfortunately, for me at any rate, it looks like the second A330 will be A39-007 not A39-004. A39-007 is airborne heading NW as ASY365. Noted that A39-004 is at SYD, it did not arrive on an ASY callsign as the other 2 did. It may be there as a backup aircraft possibly

Maybe taking over a contingent of troops for funeral guard of honour?

A39-004 has now returned back up to base at Amberley

I'd expect most European stuff to turn up on Sunday evening.

Believe Charles has a reception for all on Sunday so may be earlier

I thought they only do those flights if it's somewhere they have not been before?

Malaysian military A319 9M-NAA just flying over the middle East departed earlier this morning. Possibly heading to the UK?

[STN RAMP RAT]

The Canadians are on their way.

CL600 144620 is out of Ottawa headed out over the Atlantic and CC150 15001 is on the Ground at Ottawa. I believe both are for Stansted

[STN RAMP RAT]

It would seem the Brazilian E190 is scheduled to depart Stansted for Sal this afternoon.

[StuBie]

CFC01 CC-150 15001 up from Ottawa at this time.

Not sure why they have to practice the visit in real-time surely just jump on the sim.

Excuse my ignorance but where is Sal?

Edit: forget the question, just got the answer in Heads Up.

Yes, the reception is at Buckingham Palace on Sunday evening for all the heads invited to Mondays funeral. So looks like most of the planned arrivals will happen Saturday/Sunday.

Please share the answer! Wondering myself

Sal is in the Cape Verde Isl. or one of them.

[Rainfp1]

Sal is an island in Cape Verde. So presume a tech-stop enroute to Brasil (3 letter code SID)
