Is it just my Flightradar being glitchy or is a Voletea a319 EI-FZN operating the EI657 from FRA?

should be EI-FXN i think. EI-FZN is a RYR 737

Would appear to be the incorrect aircraft.

EI-FXN hasn't operated for Vueling since November 2017, randomly jumped around Europe 4 times (not on any particular course), and then is listed as having operated 4 Aer Lingus flights and 1 Ryanair flight periodically, without any positioning.

Fairly clear somethings not correct here.

If in doubt, check the aircrafts flight history.

I'd see it occasionally, my favourite was 'Sun-Air' seemingly operating Ryanair flights from Shannon on a Dornier 328. Wasn't actually happening of course but was funny to think about.

Flight was operated by A320 EI-EDP.

An air corps AW139 just coming back from Newcastle in the UK would it be a hospital; transfer?

I was up early this morning as we had a student leaving the house at 4.30am.

A couple of planes went overhead.

I just figured they were the trans-atlantics coming in.
But one of them was in from Cologne.
That would be a bit unusual, right?

This was a cargo 767 that does nightly Cologne-Dublin-Shannon operated for UPS by Star Air (Maersk)

QF9, the first flight from Perth to Heathrow and the first regular service flight from Australia to Europe, is on the way.

The journey is scheduled to take 17-17.5 hours. That's a long time to be stuck in economy.

BorneTobyWilde

17 hours, not bad. One could fly there for a day out and be home next day.

Veuling 8721 Dublin - Barcelona seems to have descended quite rapidly to 3000ft and is circling off Arklow, probably going to return

Here is an account of the Perth-London flight. Flying back in time, left at 6.50pm and lands at 5.03am. Another aviation milestone.

EI911 (EIN91W) LGW-NOC decided to divert to Shannon after a hold at Knock, and has now gone around on RWY06 at Shannon.

Having an issue with their ILS on board.

Clipped by an OCS truck.

Virgin 747 on it's way from Gatwick to Belfast. Is this a positioning flight? I don't think it's diverting anyway.

Yes it's a positioning flight to operate VS161 to Orlando at 14:10

Significant holding going on around Dublin with a go around in the last while. Presume it's low visibility ops?

Nope, just RVO's however I notice that FR1445 (RYR787A) from Brussels has gone around, so that may change.

Another go-around just now - Ryanair from Brussels.
