Notams are giving 28 closed every night Mon to Fri this week, and every week night up to May 28th, so one of 16/34 will be in use every weekday night until the 28th.

Significant maintenance work is being performed to keep the runway in service.

Diverted to Heathrow, apparently. It has to be a glitch of some sort.

And one of the RAF's Airbuses just off the southwest coast of the UK

Rescue 116 S92 showing on fr24 north of Dublin. I wish they had their transponder on all the time as it's interesting to follow, marine traffic isn't as good for tracking.

Their transponder IS on all the time, there just isn't enough FR24 receivers close enough around Dublin to provide low level MLAT coverage.

Never thought of that actually, they do keep a low altitude most of the time.
I'll have to keep pressuring fr24 to send me a reciever as I'm in a good spot, south dub but elevated. No use for coverage of the mountains behind me though

When off shore 300ft and below when overland minimum is 1000ft unless they are operational. Sometimes as in this case they will be doing practice ILS/VOR approaches to 16 and they'll be up at 3000ft. If they are IFR transiting from Sligo or Waterford they'll go up to 4000 or 5000ft.

Incident: Berlin A332 near Shannon on May 13th 2016, hydraulic failure
By Simon Hradecky, created Saturday, May 14th 2016 21:16Z, last updated Saturday, May 14th 2016 21:18Z
An Air Berlin Airbus A330-200, registration D-ABXA performing flight AB-7480 from Dusseldorf (Germany) to New York JFK,NY (USA), was enroute at FL380 about 90nm north of Shannon (Ireland), when the crew decided to return to Germany due to a hydraulic failure. The aircraft descended to FL290 for the return and diverted to Cologne (Germany) for a safe landing on runway 32R about 3 hours after departure from Dusseldorf.

A passenger tweeted the following day: " I lost my trip to NYC with you, and I don't blame you. But now customer service broke my heart.", several others tweeting along the same lines. Other passengers reported they were rebooked via Copenhagen (Denmark) and Newark,NJ (USA).

The occurrence aircraft remained on the ground for about 19 hours, then positioned to Dusseldorf and resumed service with a rotation to Palma Mallorca,SP (Spain).

Delta 767 Frankfurt to Detroit diverted to Dublin. Just left Dublin. Assuming a medical diversion as it was on the ground for less than two hours.

Technique

Donegal to Glasgow supposedly diverted south of Malin Head today to avoid Star Wars filming.
