There’s a DHL flight from Brussels to Nottingham that looped around Nottingham a few times and is now flying over Germany at 35000 feet so I guess not ready to land any time soon.

There are some ground vehicles out at Manchester Airport.

Oh, I can’t see them anymore.

Does anyone know why they show up?

Animatic · 21/01/2024 22:05

Yeah, I was, tried landing in Heathrow 3x (not just circling but actually going down trying to touch the runaway and up back to the clouds) and got diverted to Stansted at the end. One of the most terrifying experiences of my life.

Sharm is lowering

I'm biased as my DH flies for them, but Jet2 have a lot of ex-RAF, and commercially experienced pilots who have thousands of hours in the air, they also treat them really well. So they tend to attract very good pilots who can handle a bit of wind.

Ooh interesting. I heard that not all pilots can land at Leeds, has to be the captain rather than first officer, can you ask him if that’s true?

Yaaaaaay

Ionacat · 21/01/2024 22:06

Shark is down!

PlasticineKing · 21/01/2024 22:06

AMS - EDI landed first time minutes after the Luton flight diverted

HuntingForChicken · 21/01/2024 22:06

And it’s down phew.

Noidontknowwhatiwant · 21/01/2024 22:06

JustACountryMusicGirlInCowboyBoots · 21/01/2024 22:06

She's down! Phew!

Just12345 · 21/01/2024 22:07

Sharm has landed!

Clearinguptheclutter · 21/01/2024 22:07

Yey for the sharm-Glasgow guys having finally landed, albeit in MAN

NoKateMoss · 21/01/2024 22:07

Phew for the Sharm flight. Hope there's hotel rooms to spare for the passengers.

PlasticineKing · 21/01/2024 22:08

Dublin interesting now

Moaning5 · 21/01/2024 22:08

Wonder why DHL has flown passed so many airports in France & Germany

Countrylife2002 · 21/01/2024 22:08

Phew

what would have happened if it couldn’t land? Would it need mid air refuelling and is that even possible in this weather?

presumably the passengers will get hotels rather than taxis!

puts me off Jan/feb hols that’s for sure !

Hogglehedge · 21/01/2024 22:08

Oh thank goodness sharm is down safely

mauvish · 21/01/2024 22:08

Geneva - Gatwick has made it to Lyons

Butterflytown · 21/01/2024 22:08

EasyJet Luton to Edinburgh just landed at Newcastle

Russoooooo · 21/01/2024 22:08

Luton to Edinburgh now safely landed at Newcastle too.

Bimblesalong · 21/01/2024 22:09

Phew!

lezsucks · 21/01/2024 22:09

Sounds like the Dublin flight has just taken off from Glasgow!

Octocat · 21/01/2024 22:09

I can't access the Flight Radar thing, and I'm feeling left out. Sad I'm in NI and landing at BHD is normally a bit squeaky bum but it's really madly windy tonight.
