So we've got Dudley today and tomorrow and Eunice on Friday so thought I'd start a thread. Dudley has barely hit here in Edinburgh and already there's a flight from LHR struggling to land.

Wow those people on Geneva to Manchester won’t be having fun.

GracieLouFreeebush · 16/02/2022 21:16

I reckon this Paris-Manc will land first try!

Dub-LBA showing as diverted to Liverpool.

Can you see a 3d version - with height and stuff. It's super cool

[quote ShavingTheBadger]@notimagain am I making this up or is Leeds Bradford also on a slope?![/quote]
I've only been there a couple of times but was certainly an odd one - as I recall it it's on a slope, it's got dip in the middle and of course it's on a hill...

CharlieLo · 16/02/2022 21:19

I’ve been to Leeds Bradford and yep, it’s on a hill and often a windy airport.

Dublin - Leeds diverting to Liverpool and the Geneva Manchester flight seems to have left the "go around" loop.

Just very glad that I'm not flying anywhere, not fun being on a plane in these conditions.

Still watching Belfast to Southampton….

GracieLouFreeebush · 16/02/2022 21:24

Leeds is landed!!

Violetmo0n · 16/02/2022 21:25

GVA - MANC
Gave up. Headed to Birmingham

ajandjjmum · 16/02/2022 21:26

@GracieLouFreeebush

Leeds is landed!!
In Liverpool!
Maerchentante · 16/02/2022 21:26

I reckon Geneva - Manchester might divert to Birmingham

In 2016 I had to go to Berlin on a business trip and added on a long weekend. Flew out on Storm Gertrude, back on Storm Henry. The armrests on the latter might have received permanent indentations from my hands.

FleeceNavidadFromTheSheep · 16/02/2022 21:26

Belfast -Southampton- wind is very gusty down here, fingers crossed for this attempt

NoWordForFluffy · 16/02/2022 21:27

@GracieLouFreeebush

Leeds is landed!!
Begins with L, but not quite where they were aiming for! 🙈
ajandjjmum · 16/02/2022 21:27

I'll be waving to the Geneva plane in a minute!

comfortablyfrumpy · 16/02/2022 21:28

Hughada Manc has landed :)

Pinotpleasure · 16/02/2022 21:29

GVA-MAN is at 19000ft….a bit high to land at BHX shortly?

ShavingTheBadger · 16/02/2022 21:30

Where is Geneva -Man heading? 19000 feet is rather high for a landing at B’ham…

Maerchentante · 16/02/2022 21:31

Gatwick maybe?

I wondered this. LHR perhaps? It says an ETA of 21:48

Fancyfencepost · 16/02/2022 21:32

And Belfast to Southampton has gone round again

GracieLouFreeebush · 16/02/2022 21:32

Geneva has decided to go back to Geneva by the looks of things 🤭

Violetmo0n · 16/02/2022 21:32

Belfast - Southampton

Hasn't made it again. 😢
