    BAW274, down to 575 feet, soon to land in Shannon no doubt. Poor passangers who thought they were getting off at Heathrow can get a bus and a boat so.

    Looks like BA and NATS are having a bit of a showdown... wouldn't the UK's RAF have to blow these planes out of the sky if they are breaching restrictions on Brit airspace?

    Not a good place to crash a plane. Actually, from living there its quite a good place to crash a plane. London or Grimsby, take your pick.

    Would be great up there at the moment looking down at the Mountain formations of Mayo and Galway; highest sea cliffs in Northern Europe; loughs and bays, etc - clear skys an all - one of the best views on the planet.

    But yeah they must be getting a bit dizzy the amount of times they have been going around! :eek:
