Are you sure it's a CRJ200? Ljubljana Airport website has the Adria Belfast Departure down as an A320.

Winds look favourable for a runway 25 landing.

Not sure if it will be a CRJ200 or not-that`s the info I got when I googled the flight number.

A320 would be more suitable than CRJ200 but you never know.

I was over at BFS this morning hoping to catch it but despite departures being on runway 25, the Adria aircraft landing on another runway. What rotten luck, didn't see a single aircraft! I hate returning from a spotting trip with NO photos, but sh*t happens!  >:( Sometimes I hate Aldergrove  ;D

BFS were using runway 17 today for some arrivals due to the southerly wind-very difficult to get pictures if 17 is in use.

I thought as much :( I guess the only chance to get it is when it returns to pick the team up. Anyhow thanks for the warning of it's arrival :)
