Where other airports are hosting various narrow- & widebodies due to COVID-19, we've got our own collection going on. The Cirrus dealer proactively contacted several owners to bring their aircraft in early, just in case borders/airspace would close. This way, maintenance could still be performed. Visible are LN-ELG, D-ECCD, N147LD, N118DF, D-EHEG, D-ERHD, D-ENKH, S5-DKJ, N10PY, PH-TXW, 2-ZERO, 2-KNOW, N603DP, N10MC, N250CK, D-EUPL, D-EWPW, D-ETER, N226ML and D-ENFM (20 in total). Inside the hangars are more aircraft and I estimate that we had about 35 Cirrus aircraft on the ground at the time.

A rare opportunity to catch both the police and medevac helicopter in the same shot. The police were doing some training approaches and made a full stop for some fuel. Same goes for the medevac helicopter, which parked next to the other one. Upon their departure, I could take the photo I hoped for.

It was a dreadful morning with lots of rain but suddenly, out of nowhere came this gap inbetween the dark clouds and the sun came through for only a few minutes. I saw the rainbow forming, grabbed my camera and rushed outside. Needless to say, I happily snapped away during the brief moment that this scene was visible.

STK637G taxiing out for a runway 23 departure to Southend. On top of the tower you can see a trial installation in preparation for a possible remote tower situation.

2015's newcomer to the airport - Aegean. Operating charter flights to Corfu (Greece) every Friday. Unfortunately these flights didn't last long, as there were some issues for the touroperator.

Nightstopping.

Owned by Disney, visiting to check out their ship that is being built just over the Dutch/German border.

Transavia was the most seen charter airline at the airport. They sent their Sun Country hybrids on a regular basis, but never their Miami Air lease. Just as I had given up hope of seeing it at the airport this season, there was this Arkefly charter. And guess what.. They DID send their Miami Air!

While the rest of the country saw grey clouds and rain outside, I found myself staring at blue skies, sun and this beautiful Miami Air machine. They arrived yesterday as well as today, dropping off journalists and employees of a cruise company from Miami. They were here to check out their newest addition to the fleet, that was manufactured by the nearby Meyer Werft in Papenburg (Germany).
