For anyone around the BHX area on Friday, there's a Centre Avia Yak-42 due in around mid-day from Moscow. It's bringing CSKA Moscow in to lose in the UEFA cup tie against Villa next Wednesday and will be departing after the match.
Usual disclaimer applies.

Currently have Centr Avia Yak42 RA-42423 on my SBS here in Gatwick @ 25,000ft so I pressume its inbound!
Edit: just decended from 25,000ft to 11,000ft where I lost the signal. Should be down in a few minutes

Villa are doomed; the Moscow team are not officially 1337! (For those oldies, 1337 = Leet or "elite" in computer gaming speak).
