    Anyone listing in tonight hear of any reports of aircraft report being lazed tonight on the approach to 28 ? I was on the EI407 from FCO sitting on the left and we definitely got a blast from some retarded ****wits... Looked to be Coolock where the source was coming from but it was strong. Is this a common issue at DUB these days ? :mad:

    Whenever I do be listening to DUB in the busy evening period for a good while I almost always hear reports of laser attacks. What time would that have been?

    we touched down at 22.38 by my reckoning. Never noticed it personally at DUB but several times going into MAN in the past... Do people seriously have nothing better to do...

    This Air Lingus (Retro) coming in from Alicante.

    Is it an old plane or a new plane painted in a retro style?

    Yeah noticed that as well in the past few days... Perhaps the transmitter was out of coverage or wasn't sending data and it's the suspected flight path during the outage

    I saw a weird one the other day. Tried to do a mock-up in the attachment.

    The plane was going eastbound from the US to Europe and it was around the location of the plane that I hightlighted (except going europe bound). Coming back they usually take the hop across the pond option at the lower latitude, but the grey line for the missing section went back up to Greenland and arched back down to its location... was odd... I thought it would have been smart enough to realise that it didn't take that route...

    Is it normal to see this amount of holding at Dublin?

    Yeah, plenty of holding going on. Looks like the Philadelphia flight broke off its approach and went into the hold. Any ideas?

    Broken off approach again. Some stuff diverting. Interesting.

    Listening to the ATC. They're diverting planes to Shannon. Security operation they said. Heard something about a helicopter but didn't catch it all.

    ATC reporting security operation underway near the field with a helicopter in the area. Expect delays of 20mins but some flights looking at their alternates. Some departures getting out though.

    Any idea what this situation is about? Just had a glance at the Shannon departures and was wondering why there were 4 FR and 1 EI aircraft departing for Dublin in a short time period.

    Just seen there was a shooting in Balbriggan this morning. The Garda chopper being involved in the response may have something to do with the disrupted incoming traffic

    Isn't it about time they addressed that problem?

    The PSNI and AAC helis at Aldergrove are never permitted to interfere with traffic, they are routed around. Occasionally request passage through the overhead but not cleared below 3,000 ft.

    Recently a PSNI Islander was operating a few miles out on the departure route from Belfast City airport and the traffic was sent out over-and-under him. Impressive to watch!

    I may have given wrong information earlier as there was a separate and very serious security issue around the Malahide Rd earlier today involving kidnapping and the discharge of firearms. In such situations I don't think anyone could object to a response that would cause disruption to aviation, particularly where there is a threat to life. However disruption just to avoid "simple inconvenience" to a chopper crew would be unacceptable.
