    Replays are inconclusive.

    Actually, did you know you can replay flightradar24 and speed it up?

    Try it for last night and relive every glorious landing in HD. Live. Okey doke.

    Yeah it's great but note that the time they use is UTC and we're on Irish Summer Time at the moment or UTC+1 so their replay of our 1:00 would be 00:00.

    Not sure if you can change it to be honest..I've been living with that annoying part for a few years now

    No matter how many times I watch EI565, I still think he is gonna do it. Maybe the pilot forgot to change the airplane settings back from UTC?

    LiveATC is supposed to be getting their DUB feed back up soon. SNN is probably better at night anyway.

    Titan Airways 737 operating an Aer Lingus EIN485 flight from Dublin at the moment.

    I think 2 other Titan Airways and an ACL 737 was flying EI routes today. I know EI use Titan and ACL for charters but 4 aircraft in one day, surely this is to cover for yesterday?

    Yes covering many aircraft didn't arrive back until this afternoon because crew were out of hours.

    1000 to 1500ft over the North Eastern suburbs, unfortunately some people won't be too happy about that :D

    If it was over my house, the lower the better

    I get this message when I select cockpit view...

    Any suggestions?

    A few others mentioned that too, I clicked on first time with no problems using chrome, hope you sort it cos as a newbie to all this, it's really interesting


  • Registered Users Posts: 466 ✭✭imfml


    Yes, on a Mac. Thanks for the suggestions will report back if I solve it. Curious to see what cockpit view looks like!


  • Registered Users Posts: 466 ✭✭imfml


    Updating the Google Earth plugin fixed it - thanks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,066 ✭✭✭✭Happyman42


    I have latest version of Earth and the plug-in yet I can't get the actual landing in cockpit view. Am I doing something wrong or is this how it is?
    Thanks Mech for the entertainment the other night!

    Google Earth also told me my plugin was up to date, but the troubleshooting forum suggested that it may say that incorrectly. I uninstalled and reinstalled Google Earth to get cockpit view working.

    Cockpit veiw is working fine for me, I just can't get a landing, it goes off just before.

    Hmmm, something not quite right about that, mass skip of frames at the end.

    Plus it doesn't look like a bad landing, just a crosswind one.
    This one has been seen many times, but is always worth a look (despite the sensational name on the video):

    It's a timeline of still shots rather than a video , hence no sound

    Despite all our modern accouterments and digital technology, amateur video editing hasn't really advanced that much since the 1970s.

    but a perfect crosswind landing.

    somebody posted before that the Boeing 737 is better equipped to land in wind than an A320...is this correct?
