3 of the ex-Skyservice airaft have now left Prestwick and are heading I believe to Luton. C-FLOX B757 and A320's C-GTDG and H are proceeding at FL95 and the lead aircraft C-FLOX is abeam Newcastle at this time.

Presumably destined to become/revert to G-OOPP, G-OOPT and G-OOOX respectively.

757's C-GTBB and C-FODH both off Prestwick and heading south east, I would expect to Luton as well, both heading in the direction of LAKEY.

Two Sky Service airlines flying very low altitude and doing a lot of maneuvering heading south east over Waddington,presumably to avoid dust cloud?.

I've just discovered 3 more BA inbounds from Orlando, Antigua and Barbados, all headed for Gatwick. These will, alomost certainly, be diverted to another airport.

I think that now makes 15 BA planes on the move at present.

MPH639 PH-MCJ B763 EHAM-MMUN.The KLM pilot tried to ''pump'' the controller about the opening of British airports, but he politely denied any knowledge
