I think its suppose to come in around 4:30AM, but with sunrise around 5:20 or so you have a chance to get it if its late. I was all set to go out at 5am this morning, but as it turns out it was 4 hours late so I had plenty of time.

Here's the last couple of weeks. Looks like if you were out early enough you could have got it in daylight.

And usually parks in the hardstands beyond the end of the A side of T4, so you can't even get a decent record shot from any of the usual places.
