Very foggy in Limerick so probably the same problem in Shannon

fr336

Seems to be diverting, or - being private - going back to STN?

Indeed it is. RVR's have dropped right down. The fog is in for the night I'd say. Although it never really cleared to be honest. Are some of the GLF5's not CATII? There was a GLF5 a few weeks back that had to hold due fog as well. He eventually got in when there was a break in the fog.

Well funnily enough the Gulf that was holding at SNN due to weather has come all the way back...but to LTN, just a few miles from myself. http://www.flightradar24.com/GLF5/4ee59a0

Was just out for a few minutes and fog's really thick in places. Any of the pros here give us an idea will the usual suspects (A320s and 738s) get in to Shannon, or is there minimum visibility requirements even with autoland.
Question somewhat based on the vid of the foggy landing in Dublin recently that mentioned something about decision height at about 50 agl.

Well shortly after the Gulf a Ryanair 738, Shamrock A320 and Speedbird A318 have been getting in no trouble.

The G5 was CAT I approach,required RVR 550.

RYR CAT II RVR 200.

Ei-lax seems to be operating a very long non-etops route from Boston this morning. Anyone know why?

And again this evening looks like it's heading way north. Pain in the ass for passengers having a 7.5 hour flight to Boston.

Better to dispatch with an MEL'able item than cancel the flights altogether. Cheaper for the company too, a bit extra in fuel but no hotel bills for all the pax.

Unidentified (according to FR24) 747 coming into Shannon now. Any ideas what this is? Can't listen to LiveATC at work.



Edit: 747-428 so Air France?

B744 going into SNN now. From radarvirtuel it's Dubai Air Wing/Royal Flight.

The 747 has taken off again.

I went outside to see if I could see the 747 from my house and there was this monster of a plane in the distance.

I have attached a photo I attempted to take, but it looks far smaller than it did to the eye.

I went back and hit the playback, lost it over the Atlantic, literally Squawked off.

DUBAI8 went to Chicago O Hare.It is used in the main transporting horses.

How does the playback work,I guess it's an add on you pay for?
