New Flight Radar thread - it's windy tonight

[cakeorwine]

A new thread for FR

London to Edinburgh’s not doing very well.

It's only attempted once!

Sharm el sheikh to Glasgow is going around as it was at 2500 feet last time I looked and now it’s at over 6000

I'm on the NW coast and the wind is hideous!

The Berlin to Dublin flight must be very scary for those on board but the Paris to Dublin seems to have landed.

Watching this one and now keeping an eye on the Prague flight behind them to see if it gets down. 70 mile an hour winds here

Gran Canaria to Belfast has just landed in Paris!

I wonder if they bring in extra staff on days like this. I’d love it if an air traffic controller did AMA.

Alicante to Leeds earlier today

GRAN CAN > BELFAST is finally down in PARIS bless them

My Frankfurt/heathrow one (watching - not a passenger thankfully) has landed - bit late but safe on the ground.

Leeds - Geneva over Wharfedale, coming in to Leeds

Ryanair Berlin to Dublin having a second go now. It’s had several circles but only one aborted landing as far as I can see.

RYR994F (Luton to Cork) on its fourth circling... make that fifth...

I think it might be going to prestwick

Just seen a couple if Jet2 flights to EMA have diverted to stansted. I’m about 10 miles away and it’s got really wet and windy in the last half hour having not been too bad all afternoon/evening. Just seen a DHL flight has landed there but another has gone around again.

What happens if they can't land after x number of attempts and low fuel??

Thanks @NoKateMoss I'm ironically a bit of a nervous flyer, but I'll gladly fly with him, he's a very good pilot.

Thousands of hours in the RAF, 2 years to covert to commercial, months on the specific jet he flies... then every 2/3 months he has a trainer and training captain check him over with specific emergency scenarios. JET2 are meticulous about safety and process, engineering is top notch, very happy flying with them!

(he has mates at BA, Virgin and easyJet who are also good, I would also trust the RAF!).

Where abouts can you see altitude?

Wonder if some Glasgow bound flights will end up at Prestwick

I think there is always a contingency plan. They carry loads of fuel don’t they? For that very circumstance.

Dublin London looks like its just getting ready to take off.

I think it is! Another flight did the same earlier so maybe somehow easier to land there with the wind direction

That's interesting. I am just east over the boarder and it's really bad here. My windows and doors are shaking

Wondering where EZY62WA is heading. Was Geneva to Gatwick but just crossed the Channel and over Rouen. Another one heading for Paris?
