Well  Fai Airservice operate a Air Ambulance service so I would put money on it being a Learjet...

The reason for its arrival is probably a ski related accident, although I could be wrong...

CWY is the code for Woodgate Executive Air Charter...http://www.woodair.com/charter.html (http://www.woodair.com/charter.html) so it could be a medivac flight, but seeing as its a fairly short distance flight I doubt it....

This site will help you with identifying future flight codes that your not sure of... http://www.airlinecodes.info/icao.php?C (http://www.airlinecodes.info/icao.php?C)

G-JAJK is a Navajo  ;)
Title: Re: City of Derry airport
Post by: Dave on January 07, 2011, 01:37:41 PM
As pointed out above, G-JAJK is a small twin Piper  ;D  belonging to Woodgate Executive Air Charter.
 
PJH nabbed a photo of it in Dublin (http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=5917782)
 
I don't know the details of Eglington's runway but I'd hazard a guess that it's way too small for any widebody to land (safely) on it.  :)

Just checked with the airport it is the wrong code the departure code is CWY02 so that is why it is confusing. They had a call from a local spotter who asked the same question.
