refuel/stop over or dropping in somebody i wonder?

According to Twitter, pilot asked for Glasgow and was recommended Prestwick.

Oscar Bravo

It would want to start dropping a bit more. I wonder will he go into the hold for while.

was thinking the same, burning off fuel?

theres a Ryanair thats much further out at 18,000 feet, so its defo going to hold as it should be at about 12,000-15,000 by now.
anybody have the Prestwick frequency?

Ted_YNWA

Last flight into PIK is down, no more departures.

Next one due in GLA @ 23.58.

Was just thinking that. It's a pita that we can't listen to UK ATC feeds.

Maybe heading back to Frankfurt?

Forgot to load up the cargo ?

Oscar Bravo

he could be as its just passing south of PIK now and hasn't gone into the hold.

Zcott

Apparently it's dumping fuel now.

why descend that much tho? still declaring emergency apparently.

only logical explanation for frankfurt is too muchn fuel and not able to land in PIK anyway.

still at fl21, but about to enter holding area perhaps.

Mech1

frequency?

homerjay2005

it IS heading to Frankfurt apparently, so it cannot be too serious.

Jack1985

Fly in more dense air, higher fuel burn - And if they're already dumping, the process will be much quicker than dumping at a higher altitude.

Nice bit of separation for Dublin Approach to do in a while, four Shamrock's sticking together off the South coast.

Will Fr24 show any of the activity from the airshow in bray tomorow?,think it starts at 3.30.

Apparently BOX412 has a single engine failure.

pilot has some balls then going that long with just one engine!

wonder if the fact that its a 777 make it newsworthy?

I'm sure the rags will make something of it if the get wind of the incident.

Strange place to park a airplane.

Out in the mid atlantic Faial Island, no callsign, zoom in to see.

Must be a transponder in a car.

homerjay2005

that Cargo plane still squaking emergency, but still not landed...has turned east and away from Frankfurt.

droped to FL19 now, i would assume its going to Leipzig-Halle instead of Fra, as perhaps they have a parts hub or base there.

While on the ground in Leeds. Could be a mistake setting the squawk code?

Oscar Bravo

I'd say so alright!
