Etihad ETD75X incoming from Abu Dhabi to Dublin went around a few minutes ago. Passed overhead here at 3000ft. Looked and sounded impressive!

Is this a common occurance? It seem to be operating for Stobart Air.

EI-FMJ (Flybe) operated Manchester to Southend as well, also apparently Stobart Air?

Sorry, I'm not quite the expert with these things.

Stobart Air operate for Flybe as well as Aer Lingus.

Thanks for that

This evenings Shannon-Birmingham was late and the following EI3709 to Cork was cancelled, however the aircraft is now positioning to Cork as RE302P. Odd that the passengers couldn't be brought along.

Appeared to have trouble during first approach so on 2nd attempt now

Edit: down on 2nd attempt.

Quite windy out in Cork. Norwegian's Providence-Cork (IBK1820) appears to be in a holding pattern. EI to Amsterdam and Malaga haven't taken off either yet although Stobart got away, suggests just outside limits for the larger planes.

3 Stobart's made it up off the crosswind runway which is facing directly into the wind.

D81764 made it down at Shannon where the main runway isn't at a 90 degree angle to the prevailing winds. Looks like D81820 might be headed for shannon

marno21 · 04-01-2018 8:46am

D81820 went off to Shannon, FR9895 in the hold now.

3 Shamrock A320s and 1 Ryanair waiting to take off

Bright and early (or dark and early!) Marno!

I note FR9895 from Liverpool is holding outside the normal hold and at 20,000ft, I don't think they plan for the winds to abate any time soon. Can't listen in as the cork feed is down yet again, however I'd imagine one could hear transmissions from FR9895 on the Shannon Approach frequency.

Wind per the 7:30 METAR is 240 ° 28kts G 41kts. Direction forecast to change to 310° between 8-10am, which may help somewhat.

JCX BXC · 04-01-2018 8:55am

I also note EI138 (EIN13J ) BOS-DUB went around on RWY10 at DUB and they're changing to RWY28 now.

marno21 · 04-01-2018 9:00am

EI882 to Malaga is up and away

EI840/841 to and from Amsterdam have been cancelled

JCX BXC · 04-01-2018 9:08am

Wind 38kts gusting to 50kts according to Shannon Approach.

And off to Shannon.

Update: Wind out of limits at Shannon now, requesting hold now at present position. Knock in limits but closed until 9am. Kerry is in limits however.

Final Update: Off to Dublin.

Virgin just ahead of him seems to be carrying on also to JFK!

BA cancelled most of todays flights to New York and Boston due to impending weather. I suspect BA183 is returning to LHR.

Looks more like returning to LHR. No sign of descent.

Scheduled to return to LHR at 2300hrs. Reason - Delayed significantly.

I suppose they cant get everything right. They were hoping for some clearing by the time BA183 would arrive.

Oscar Bravo · 04-01-2018 11:25pm

I think its a wise move from BA183 ,KJFK 042151Z 31026G44KT 2SM R04R/5500VP6000FT -SN BLSN BKN021 OVC040 M04/M07 A2931 RMK AO2 PK WND 33044/2147 TWR VIS 2 1/2 SLP923 P0000 T10441067. will be interesting to see how long the Virgin(VS25) which was just ahead of them and has continued on will end up holding for

Cloudio9 · 05-01-2018 12:56am

JFK is closed until tomorrow morning. It had been expected to open by early evening. I guess they turned back when jfk status was updated.

marno21 · 05-01-2018 4:40am

VS25 currently holding over Cardiff, after leaving LHR 7 hours ago bound for JFK, and U turning south of Greenland.

Presumably waiting for LHR to open again

DY7019 just passed overhead after doing something similar en route CDG-JFK.
