Comments

Cargo operations underway yesterday morning and continued until 1900LT. Recommenced this morning and currently unloading lower hold and expect to be completed late today. Weather not suitable for flying today and forecast for next five days also not favourable but may find some windows of opportunity during this time. Refuelling operations planned to get underway later today weather permitting. REGARDS Richard and Jenny
