    Yeah. Have only seen this showing as Rada once. They just show as IL62-MGR. The Russian Air Force ones often show the reg RA8xxxx.

    Just taxiing for departure.

    Cheers, still a no-show on FR24.

    Edit: Just popped up on take-off


  • Registered Users Posts: 552 ✭✭✭Salmon Leap


    Interesting one possibly on finals to SNN

    Anyone know why EI have 2 x A330s currently en-route to Atlanta from Dublin?
    EI-EIM & EI-EIN.

    Operating cargo services.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,133 ✭✭✭goingnowhere


    If you put the flight numbers into the EI website it will list the flight

    Any 4 digit EI flight number starting with 9 is freight only and the last 3 digits will match with the normal flight numbering schema

    EIM/EIN flew out to Munich first

    GAJ made the trip on Saturday

    Interesting.
    Munich = BMW
    Stuttgart = Mercedes/Daimler
    Both have factories in South Carolina which is next door to Georgia.

    Life ain't always empty.

    TUI are also flying their 787s between the US and UK/Europe for the car manufacturers for months now just with cargo which is keeping them surprisingly busy.

    2 Norwegian B738s en route from Dublin to Kazakhstan.

    2 Norwegian B738s en route from Dublin to Kazakhstan.

    These must be the 2 that were grounded there over the last 2 years.
    New operator I assume

    I thought they were MAX8s that were grounded in Dublin?

    Bugger. Bad reading on my part. The post said "B738", my brain made the wrong connection to the 2 MAXs grounded in Dublin.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,492 ✭✭✭john boye


    Fairly sure they had NGs in Dublin the last while too.

    Been showing that reg for a while now. It also appears to have made a trip to the Galway area.

    Alot of chatter fake news I guess that the aircraft operating into Belfast has been up-gauged due to extra demand in and out of Belfast due to RoI travel restrictions. Is there a wide-body operating LHR-BHD?

    This morning's BA service was operated using an A321, but you won't find any widebodies in BHD.

    An Air Corps Casa of the North East must be chasing British subs as it has a very erratic flight according to abs exchange


  • Registered Users Posts: 869 ✭✭✭HTCOne


    Ireland doesn’t have anything capable of finding submarines, even the naval vessels don’t have proper SONAR. Likely doing some kind of fishery patrol or training.

    Not generally their tasking

    Regular visitor to the park, whether CG or Air Corps copters most days at this time.

    This was the lowest I've ever seen one fly in over the apartment.

    Anyone know why it lands in there so often? St Mary's Hospital? Garda HQ? El Presidente?

    The designated landing area for St. James' Hospital is on the grounds of the old Kilmainham Hospital. The heli meets an ambulance there, which transfers the patient onwards to James'. The army sports ground nearby in the south eastern corner of the Phoenix Park is often used by Air Corps helis to collect and drop off passengers, more often the Pressie, Taoiseach or government ministers etc. but the odd time a medical transfer.
