RYR policy -

"Once an uncomplicated pregnancy enters its 28th week, expectant mothers are required to carry a 'fit to fly' letter completed by their midwife/doctor.

For uncomplicated pregnancies travel is not permitted beyond the following dates:

For an uncomplicated single pregnancy, travel is not permitted beyond the end of the 36th week of pregnancy
For an uncomplicated twins, triplets etc. pregnancy, travel is not permitted beyond the end of the 32nd week of pregnancy."

Ah ok, 36 weeks is late enough.

Absolutely madness if true? Isn't flying prohibited if you are over 6 months pregnant?

I think a letter from a Doctor will do the trick. That's what Mrs. crosstownk thinks.

EDIT: I didn't see the new page with similar responses.

I heard something about an ambulance too; pretty cool if you're right. Want to post on the flight radar thread too?

I don't see the connection with FR24 as I was driving and only listening to Pat's feed but feel free to copy and paste my post.

Ah I just thought it'd be of interest there too.

Heard that conversation about the "little miracle " myself. Going by the tone of the conversation it's more likely that someone complained about being seriously unwell but suddenly felt a whole load better once the paramedics turned up with their ECG machine and their needles. Some sort of little miracle you could say.

It's wasn't a baby........more like a miracle recovery.

It's looking like it going to be another interesting day here in the airport. Another big wind is coming, so met are saying anyway!

Sticky mic in Op's is gonna get someone red faced someday.

Heard a few calls to 'Station' on Mech's feed today - who is this?

Station could be any aircraft, or all stations is when the ATC is transmitting to everybody on the frequency.

Say if the ATC didn't hear your call sign on your transmission, they would say station calling say again your call sign.

While this may be true, in my instances I'm confident they were aircraft phoning in rather than the other way round - do you still broadcast ops frequencies Mech or did I imagine that?

Aer Lingus ground ops are also called "station".

Thinking about it it probably was this; I think it was an EI aircraft! Feeling even less with it than usual today - thanks Growler

Yes that would be Op's alright. Sometimes I have to cut them out of the feed as they have a sticky mic problem that jams up the feed.

Aircraft calling company, advising arrival time, specials(disabled pax etc needing assistance) and tech requirements. They will be given a stand number by ops.

We seem to have gained approx 10 listeners (average) at any one time to the feed since the storms arrived, Thank you for listening, and welcome on board.

Any comments on the feed, feel free to post here.

chaps, first as always thanks for the awesome feeds! pat and the other two guys,

i was just wondering if there is a case for having ground 121.800 on its own feed? its quite busy in the mornings etc and seems to cut out alot of approach center etc? or is it just me?

i know there is a single feed for the tower, would this not be better for ground etc?

just throwing out an idea. fingers crossed ill be able to feed in the summer.

I waa thinking the same for seperate feeds for ground and tower but dont know if its possible or if Pat would have the time to do it. Either way i'm thankful for the feed as is

I can take Ground out of the feed for a few days and we will see how it goes.

I will do it later when I get home.

Thanks Pat, I don't know if you noticed on the feed also that Ryanair station control is also interrupting on the frequency, not complaining about it but just dont know if you know about it or not

crosstownk

Personally, I like the ground feed in the mix but it can take over the feed during busy times. It'll be interesting to see how the feed is with ground switched out for a while.

AFAIK, for Pat to provide seperate GND & TWR feeds would require a scanner per feed rather than a single scanner that appears to be in use at the moment.

Razor44

who feeds just the tower? are they on here?

and also just to say I love the ground feed but It can take over

Dublinflyer

Not me, I do the other one that has a few freqs on it.

Peregrine

I'm pretty sure that it's declanfoleyirl who provides the tower feed.

Ground gone now

I'll tune in this evening and report my 2c on the arrangement.

fr336

If I'm going to be completely frank, if I just want approach and tower I will almost always go to the third feed. If I want ground in the mix too, I'll go to the first. In an ideal world maybe one could concentrate entirely on ground and something else like FIS and the other on approach, tower etc. But then people are generous enough to offer the feeds in the first place - and they are excellent feeds. So feels a bit much to push it too much.

fr336

And if I had access to the frequencies myself I'd want to be listening to Ground, Approach, Tower, Dublin North, Dublin South, and all the airline Ops seperately..not greedy at all, I'm sure you'll agree
