Curious if anyone knows why, but I noticed Virgin Atlantic (of the UK) has had several daily flights over the last week as flight number 560 from CVG to LHR. What is behind this? Is it a parts ferry flight? Or is Virgin Atlantic now considering a CVG-LHR route? Did I miss some big announcement for CVG?

Flight Aware has several days' worth of itineraries showing VS560 from CVG to LHR on Airbus a330 aircraft. I cannot think of any special events occurring that would warrant the flight. And it is unlikely a charter flight since it is appearing daily. Any help would be appreciated.

That was my thought as well. It has to be cargo, but I didn't think VA had dedicated cargo ops other than what goes underneath passenger flights? And I don't think they have a cargo fleet? Unless they contract with DHL, which has their North American World Hub at CVG.

Maybe you’re getting Beechmont and Kenwood mixed up? Kenwood had a step mall on the north side of Montgomery Road at Kenwood Road. Pogoes was on the east end and McAlpins was on the west end. There was a 10 cent store half way in between them, maybe Grants, and the rest of the stores were one of a kinds like a card shop, jewelry store, luggage/leather store. This was all prior to I 71 because across Montgomery rd was a walk up carry out McDonalds and a Putt-Putt Golf.

Default Remembering Swifton

I didn’t live there or go to school, but I do remember seeing Ernie’s smallest circus in the world at Swifton Shopping Center. I lived in Norwood and we walked to Swifton to go shopping because we didn’t have a car. They had a variety of shoe stores and a Lerners, and I think it was Mabley & Carew when they first opened, not Elder Beerman. We also would eat at the Pasquale’s in the lower level of the mall.
I’m not sure what year it was, but Donald Trump remodeled the apartments at one point in his business career!

Actually CVG is the abbreviation for Covington KY, not Cincinnati, so no it's not named after Cincinnati
