A bumper day for BAL - Vive La France! 

The five PC-21s arrived from Boscombe Down for an overnight stop.

The Casa was originally inbound to Dublin (from Evreux) but diverted in after more than an hour holding over BAL @ FL160. It seems it was unable to carry out an RNAV approach to runway 10L and was advised by ATC that it would be 1300L at the earliest before runway 10R would become available for landings.
