2 landing attempts and still not down.

I think it's windy there

Not much. But a bit better than Corfu airport!

cakeorwine · 13/01/2024 14:31

Looks like BA has changed their minds

BA looked like they were coming in for a try but then turned away again...

Madeira airport used to be terrifying, wedged between sea and cliff, but I think it has been improved

Ha no it's still the same, half the runway is on stilts in the sea and in between the high cliffs, one of the hardests airports to land in.

mybrainisfull · 13/01/2024 14:32

Gah! I have stuff to do, but need to see BA and PXO land now.

cakeorwine · 13/01/2024 14:33

Meanwhile PXO is just on a sightseeing flight

PXO's route has been somewhat interesting!

titchy · 13/01/2024 14:33

Snap!

AllIsWellish · 13/01/2024 14:33

This is strangly fascinating!

"If the wind is above 15 knots, they cant land. Period."

"The wind"? Really? Which wind? Crosswind, tailwind, headwind?

cakeorwine · 13/01/2024 14:34

"So did you do anything nice at the weekend?"

ajandjjmum · 13/01/2024 14:35

BA still hanging around then!

PatriciaHolm · 13/01/2024 14:35

There's an easyJet heading from Tenerife now, about to join in the fun...

mybrainisfull · 13/01/2024 14:35

Where is PXO off to now?!

WiseUpJanetWeiss · 13/01/2024 14:35

There appear to be two Easyjets coming in from Tenerife soon as well.

whatausername · 13/01/2024 14:35

Here we go!

WiseUpJanetWeiss · 13/01/2024 14:36

mybrainisfull · 13/01/2024 14:35

Where is PXO off to now?!

I think it’s just making pretty patterns at this point.

Pluviophile1 · 13/01/2024 14:36

I can't tear myself away now.

An Easy Jet flight from Tenerife is joining the fun too.

mybrainisfull · 13/01/2024 14:36

@WiseUpJanetWeiss lol

mybrainisfull · 13/01/2024 14:37

BA again

ajandjjmum · 13/01/2024 14:38

BA gaining height again!

mybrainisfull · 13/01/2024 14:39

nooooooooooooooo

cakeorwine · 13/01/2024 14:39

That was earlier to abort.
I wonder where they will go now?

WiseUpJanetWeiss · 13/01/2024 14:39

Those poor BA passengers. Surely they’ll divert now.
