​On 10 March 2015, HMS Argyll (F231), left the KGV Dock after a weekend visit to Glasgow. The first Emirates Triple-seven of the day appeared on finals as the warship passed Newshot Island at Erskine.

A product of what was then the world-famous Yarrow shipyard, Argyll was commissioned in 1991 and was now the longest-serving Type-23 Frigate in the Royal Navy. Her most recent deployment had been to the Caribbean and North Atlantic during which her crew seized £77 Million worth of drugs. The warship also assisted Bermuda in the aftermath of Hurricane Gonzalo and had previously deployed to the Arabian Gulf and the Falklands.

More recently Argyll had utilised her advanced Artisan radar and onboard Lynx helicopter to locate and monitor a Russian warship which had been transiting through the English Channel. Tensions between President Vladimir Putin`s regime and the Western Allies had heightened drastically due to the escalating situation in Ukraine.

HMS Argyll hadn`t been open to the general public during her visit to Glasgow but her crew hosted pre-arranged visits and tours, welcoming various organisations including Sea Cadets and local school groups.

Airbus A319-112 D-ASTA of Germania which arrived on 12 March took off around 1100hrs the following morning.

I saw this Dornier 328-110 G-BYMK for the first time on Wednesday 4th February. Although it bears Flybe titles, it`s operated by Loganair and has `Dundee: City of Discovery` tail markings. The Dornier remained at Glasgow for several days, awaiting a replacement for the starboard prop which had apparently developed a fault. Another Dundee-based aircraft G-OTAY, a Tecnam P-2006T of Tayside Aviation, overshot the runway in the afternoon.

Biz-jets

Calspan Aerospace operates a fleet of advanced experimental aircraft including four Learjets, a Gulfstream 3, a SAAB 340, and a Hawker-Beechcraft Bonanza for aerobatic tests. Learjet 25B N102VS `Inflight Simulator` is seen here about to depart Glasgow International on 10 March. The science and technology company, which was originally founded in 1943 as part of the Research Laboratory of the Curtiss-Wright Aircraft Division at Buffalo, New York. consists of four primary operating units: Flight Research, Transportation Research, Aerospace Sciences and Crash Investigations.

The National Flying Laboratory Centre`s British Aerospace BAe-3100 Jetstream 31 G-NFLA spent several days here this month. The twin-prop, which made numerous short flights from its temporary Glasgow base, is a unique facility used to educate and train industry and postgraduate students in various aspects of aerospace research. The National Flying Laboratory Centre (NFLC) is responsible for operating aircraft on behalf of Cranfield University. Its primary task is to assist with the teaching of the postgraduate courses, and to provide self-contained short courses for undergraduates from other universities requiring flying laboratories. The NFLC also carries out research and trials flying, both in its own and other aircraft. To date, more than twenty UK universities have made use of the facility with around 1,200 students flown in a typical year.

Army Air Corps BN-2T Defender ZH004 captured on short finals on 27 March. This same aircraft had also called in the previous day. On the 27th, a mass powercut in Amsterdam and the area to the north of the Dutch capital disrupted Holland`s rail network and halted flights, including those from Glasgow International. Connections to Schiphol Airport from here weren`t due to resume until 2300hrs with four KLM and one Easyjet flight affected.
