Flightradar24 Thread Part III

JCX BXC · 08-03-2017 11:30pm

Flightradar is constantly updating, the "live arrivals" are not so much. I'd imagine they assumed that it will take the scheduled time, so taking off 19 minutes late means landing a little bit later? It's likely they didn't take into account the strong southerly tailwind.

IIRC, and I may be wrong - Dublin Airport give times gate to gate, ie when the aircraft leaves the gate it has departed, and when it gets to the gate it has arrived. FR24 is wheels up to wheels down, so departure is off the runway, arrival is on to the runway.

That's possible alright, but it doesn't take an hour to get from the runway to the gate so it doesn't apply in this instance.

Ah that's it, the tailwind is probably the reason. Great thing FlightRadar, thanks to it I'm ready for the Dublin airport time to suddenly come forward by an hour.

EI657 gone around at Dublin on RWY28 due to a tailwind. Going for an approach in RWY16.

Pretty much every flight from the canaries tonight has arrived back with approx 2 hour delays.
I've seen 10-12 flights on flight radar heading back to the UK/Ireland with delays all from the canaries, anyone know what's going on down there that's causing such delays ?

That moment when you borrow your companies car but can't quite decide where you want to go..

Looks to me like he tried to land in Galway, realized its closed and that the runway isn't long enough for a jet anyway, then got angry and indecisive before turning for home.

Fog. Some aircraft landing, some are not. Looks like some aircraft don't have CAT III capabilities.

Someone needs to make that meeting in the US regardless of weather & flight cancellations! I have this mental image of the little plane stuffed with jerry cans of fuel and scuba oxygen tanks...
