    Wow that's some correction there.....morons.

    Their horrible English tells us all we need to know about that news company. "Air France tells us" does not make sense in a separate sentence. If a comma was used, it would be better, but it would still not read well.
    (Not that I'm a grammar expert, not at all)

    Just shows how much of an idiot you can look like if you jump to conclusions.

    All that money for your flight, you don't wanna spend it just on the aircraft do you?? Few extra hours around the terminal reading, plane spotting etc.

    There's a good reason for it. Crew member suffered a serious injury and replacement had to be brought over from the east coast. Wishing him a speedy recovery and a return to flying.

    Crew member overnighting at JFK was positioned to SFO to replace the injured, and another positioned from Dublin to replace the JFK crew.

    What are the inflight procedures if radio comms are lost?

    PANS doc 4444:

    EAT = estimated approach time

    Follow the filed plan to destination and enter the hold at the designated Nav aid until descent to approach as close as possible to the latest acknowledged EAT; if no EAT has been received or acknowledged then approach as close as possible to Flight Plan ETA.


    Basically continue to destination by the route mentioned in the flight plan.

    Whats the story with the severe lack of Ryanair flights this evening/tomorrow morning? Is it because of NYE?

    Probably quiet and aircraft are being shortcut by UK, descent will take them into uncontrolled airspace.

    Stobart 92C was shortcut so left the airways so ATC will have to tell them where they are and about any known or observed traffic, you hear it occasionally when they are quiet.

    Was picked up by T-MLAT with no registration info, but listening to the crew and the procedures it sounded like US military.
