Cityjet, coming north over the Irish sea near Wicklow

Shamrock231

He's squaking 7551 though not 7700?

Peregrine

I know yeah..I didn't hear it actually, just tuned in now.

Mech1

He declared "pan pan" about 7 min ago

Shamrock231

Looks like he's about to make his approach now, looks like EIN64W is planning to divert...

Peregrine

Yeah hydraulic problem. Runway has to be inspected after landing so there will be delays.

64W has been holding for a long time, where did he say he was diverting to?

Shamrock231

Just said they're considering diverting, they'll probably have a bit extra fuel in the tanks due to the weather anyways, but 2 rounds of the hold so far, almost 3, and he'll still have to wait for a runway inspection, and possibly the aircraft being towed off the runway...

Shamrock231

Down safe it looks like.

Peregrine

And taxiing off

64W still holding

Shamrock231

Looks like NWS isn't working and they're just using differential braking.

Please keep us informed.

Jesus this would be great to have on the day. I'll be on a balcony looking over the Liffey with my laptop.

I was offered a seat on 1 of the display aircraft...but then I wouldn't get to see the Vulcan.

Thanks for the "heads up" tuning in now:D

Shamrock231

Anyone noticed the way the approach controller on duty at the minute has a funny way of saying "Papa", almost sounds like something from Downton Abbey...

Razor44

the one i always notice is the girl who says ull-taa-tude (altitude), if anyone gets what im saying? its totally out of the blue compaired to her actual voice!

Shamrock231

I know the very one you're on about...

b757

Or "Byeeee Nooow".. Didn't hear him in months.

de biz

What about "Gud day to ya now"....legend

Mech1

Feed audio maybe all over the place for the next couple of weeks, I gotta do my mums 70th party through the puter. So EQ on the feed is gone or moving about.

Feed will be down (as puter will be in Belfast) on Friday evening 6th Sept through to Sunday evening 8th Sept.

Sorry but its gotta be done.

crosstownk

Any chance you can move it forward a week as I'll be busy with the Dubs match and a hangover. :pac:

Mech1

Sorry feed went down for a hour there, Tumble dryer tripped the sockets out, sorted now.

Yes Keep it:

Andy g
Nimrod 7
Treadhead

No Lose it:
Crosstownk
Martinsvi
Lord Lucan
Xpro

We have been up and running for a while now, any informed (as in regular listener) input as to what freq need to be dropped, or is everyone happy enough?

Shamrock231

I'm pretty happy with the ops frequency, you'd miss out on a lot of the background info it it wasn't there so I'd say keep it. Clearence Delivery might be nice, but probably would crowd it a bit at times.

I think its in there already?

Mech1

118.500 clearance is in the mix maybe your talking about something I dont know about?

Shamrock231

I don't think it is, maybe I'm wrong, I'll listen in and see sure... I usually only listen at night, so rarely are people getting clearances...

Shamrock231

My bad, apologies.

andy_g

still keep them

BonkeyDonker

Just wanted to say a quick thank for hosting these - have spent many an hour listening to them when I should have been doing something more constructive......

Shamrock231

Just listening in and one of the Ryanair crews said: "There's no one here to pick us up, and none of us are able to drive, can you send someone down from crew control to pick us up?" Do crews usually get picked up by a bus or something from the plane? Do they not have to clear passport controls and customs like everyone else or did I interpret that incorrectly?

Thanks for the info, do they just get dropped to the passport/customs section, or can they just stroll home once their finished? Sounded a bit odd to me. Thanks for the info.

121.875 cds (whatever that is) is now in the mix.

Clearance / Delivery service?

Sorry for the confusion before Shamrock:o

Remember people, im relying on you to keep me right on this whole ATC malarkey.

I know sweet fa about it, I just happen to have a scanner, a ladder, and some spare bandwidth.

You see quite a number of small vans outside the FR HQ building. The crew check-in and do briefings in HQ/Ops area. They then use the bus to transport themselves to their aircraft. An inbound crew can usually take the outbound crews bus back to HQ. Both in and out of airside locations FR crews clear security and customs checks.
