New Flight Radar thread - it's windy tonight

[cakeorwine]

A new thread for FR

Ooh - a change...

Barcelona to Gatwick has drawn a pretty holding pattern.

Another one doing loops

The Luton to Cork flight is doing loops near the airport without actually attempting to land. There don't seem to be any other flights around so I wonder what's going on?

Yikes that's horizontal rain.
I follow the Shipping Forecasts and it's 'Red' in all sea areas tonight.
Going to be rough out there for sure.

Hope everyone stays safe.

It’ll just be flying overhead. More interested in the Glasgow to dublin that appears to be attempting take off! The wind has really ramped up at Glasgow in last half hour.

FR24 is addictive!! Not RTFT but easyJet Geneva to Gatwick failed to land and headed to Paris where it looks like it’s about to land.

London to Edin coming in again, finger crossed!

Got to admire the attitude of the pilots. There's not of this - oh they managed it so we can too. They don't push it.

Yes, I was on a flight from LHR to JFK in early January in I think 2018, and a blizzard hit NYC worse than forecast while we were en route. JFK, La Guardia and Newark all filled up with parked planes, other colleagues travelling to NY had their flights diverted to Atlanta and Denver, but ours kept circling for three hours over NY hoping for a gap in the weather — and we finally handed at 2 am in Newark. The reason I remember is that a colleague on my flight fell and hurt her head and i ended up having to sit with her in First to make sure she wasn’t manifesting any odd symptoms.

I watched the Leeds one go overhead about a mile from landing just as a wheel bin flew down the street, impressive landing in this wind. This might be my new hobby.

The Cork plane looks like it’s heading away again.

Sharm el Sheikh- Glasgow now heading south-west, will be over the Solway firth soon, wonder where it's going.

I was wondering what was going on with this one 🤔

The Glasgow to Dublin plane has been there a while. It's cancelled on the Glasgow airport website.

Can’t work out where the sharm to Glasgow flight is going now.

SSH-GLA now squawking.

My son was on Belfast to Glasgow that landed at 1730. He said it was very bumpy! He said a Few people were being sick probably due the bumps all the way. He was very happy when it landed !

My guess is Liverpool

Scratch that- easyJet Geneva to Gatwick failed to land at Gatwick, has gone back past Paris and looks to be heading back to Geneva.

I’m betting Manchester Or Liverpool as it’s so high and still southbound

God knows where EZY62WA Geneva to Gatwick's going now; I thought it was trying for Orly but it's way south of there now (and yes this is hopelessly addictive)

Wonder if it’s going to LPool or Manc.

It's just sqwaked

I am wondering if it’s going to turn and head towards Newcastle.
