AF54 Squawking emergency over Canada

PukkaStukka · 01-01-2015 9:25pm

AFR54 from Paris to Washington squawking the 7's over Canada and descending very rapidly indeed.

Edit: May be heading for Montreal

fr336 · 01-01-2015 9:25pm

Aircraft on approach to DUB asked what wind was right now, gusting 58 knots, "shouldn't have asked"

windowspotter · 01-01-2015 9:26pm

Saw descent rate of 7500 feet per minute just there

Never knew a 777 could manage to take off from 16. Thought it was too short.

I'm wondering if that is wrong and should be an A330, no?

Hard to say. They are below FL010 now but the rate of descent has tapered off considerably. Still looks to be heading to land.

Montreal tower here hopefully http://www.liveatc.net/flisten.php?mount=cyul_twr2&icao=cyul

Did it actually gust 58kt?

Just saw 43s...

Could be a bumpy takeoff:(

Ryanair 3 / FR3 just taking off from DUB wonder what the occasion is http://www.flightradar24.com/RYR3/52ca35c

is the 3 code reserved for something or what is the significance of it that has alerted you?

my guess is that its a holding flight due to an earlier diversion? looks to be heading to Shannon.

AFR54 reporting business suite? overheating but under control

He passed something over the radio about a business class seat overheating but under control

No, definitely a 777. Spotted it over Blackrock after takeoff. Pretty cool seeing a plane of that size over Dublin. Must have been cool to see it over Santry.

It looks that its going to Kerry, as the Luton flight has not taken off yet, despite it having been schudeled two hours ago.

Looks as if it's replacing a faulty aircraft at Kerry.

homerjay2005 · 01-01-2015 9:43pm

emergency vehicles on the end of the runway waiting for the AF to get down.

Snap you clever so and so

jimbis · 01-01-2015 9:44pm

AFR54 seems confident it can vacate the runway on landing. No need for evac

so is it a standby plane used only as backup?

There is always standby planes in the winter. Always.

Down and safe. Ground seem to be speaking French now so don't know what's happening

Oscar Bravo · 01-01-2015 9:52pm

EI-DWV went tech in Kerry. DYD collecting pax and then direct London.

Surely someone down Kerry way can do a liveatc these days...do they not do aviation down there

Oscar Bravo · 01-01-2015 9:56pm

No flying club at the airport either ....shame really. nice spot!

fr336 · 01-01-2015 9:59pm

I wonder if the replacement FR for Kerry-Luton will now become a LTN based aircraft

Possibly. Ryanair switch around their aircraft so much it's likely. The one that's in Kerry can't stay there, as its pointless leaving it there, so it will either go to Dub or luton.
