Tis down!

ANXIOUS · 03-01-2014 12:53am

Typical just as I turned it off.

Princess Consuela Bananahammock · 03-01-2014 12:54am

Not as dramatic as last week... Anything else due in or is that it?

Aer Arann landing in Emergency down in ORK right now, emergency services lined up along the runway and ambulances called in from around Cork County...

Peregrine · 03-01-2014 12:55am

He's landed.

I live just mile south of 10 and I could hear the wind as he was landing. It's quite fierce.

Did he say the nature of the emergency?

I think ORK is out of MLAT coverage.

Next into DUB is estimated 04:20

homerjay2005 · 03-01-2014 12:55am

whats happening now on the radio, some EI plane leaving hanger 6 for checks or something?

Strumms · 03-01-2014 12:55am

I can't see anything at all as regards Irish arrivals... Could be it until the cargo and the transatlantic birds in the morning.

Listening in now, landed safely, downgraded to a Pan-Pan-Pan and emergency services are following him onto stand...

Pilot sounds very relived to be back on the ground over the radios...

landed 3 minutes ago, must be a medical emergency.

No, they held for about 12 minutes before taking the approach, would have come straight in if it were a medical emergency, and there'd have been no need for the fire crew lining the runway...

Company tow from parking stands to hangar 6 (Aer Lingus Maintenance) for maintenance checks

Nonoperational · 03-01-2014 1:15am

Anyone know the story with the Aer Arann? Did it have to land in winds above normal allowed?

Shamrock231 · 03-01-2014 1:17am

Apparently there was some uncertainty as to whether the landing gear was down and locked before landing, but looked like all turned out well anyways in the end...

fr336 · 03-01-2014 1:32am

Apparently the Aer Arann emergency landing at ORK was on the third attempt at landing?! I thought it was two go arounds then diversion? Very well done to the crew either way; conditions sounded fierce.

Shamrock231 · 03-01-2014 1:33am

According to this post over on PPRuNe the aircraft was covered in a layer of sea salt out of the blue while flying...

I think the poster on prrune may be confused. Just listening back to the tapes and think that was about the aircraft that had come in before the emergency and they were passing on the advice to the one we were talking about.

Any chance of a link to the act feed archive?

Thursday 2nd Jan, 2330-0000. You have to sit and wait for stuff or browse through it and hope for the best though :P I'm listening to the 2300-2330 now but haven't actually heard any mayday or anything to do with the aircraft in question yet.

flazio · 03-01-2014 3:15am

The Cork feed doesn't have the approach frequency it appears, just the Tower.

EI104 taking an unusual routing back home until you see where the storm is sitting. They are currently taking a fix for an ILS onto RWY16.

Wind is 200 @ 18kts 170v230 in Dublin

EY45 just asked ATC for weather at Manchester and Shannon so might divert. Wind at shannon also gusting to around 40kts.

My feed player keeps jamming sadly.

Come on ETD45, make a decision! Our entertainment is your prime objective, surely?

fr336 · 03-01-2014 7:29am

Max gust down to 37
