Lots of holding and missed approaches / go arounds at Dublin, and it looks like they've switched from 16 to 34. There's no noticeable wind either.

Any idea what's going on ?

Looks like a tailwind on 16 caused it.

An-124 about to pass over Ireland. Just over Galway heading east.

EI-ICS, new Coast Guard helicopter currently active off the coast of Waterford.

Interestingly, this one has ADS-B, so is visible on Flight Radar at low altitude

First time I've seen it but an Air France A318 on it's way into Dublin.

Started a few weeks ago IIRC, operating instead of Cityjet.

Interesting, such diversions are rare in Cork.

Interesting about the emergency exits, likely from the Aer Lingus unordered evacuation recently.

I was watching it land on flightradar, it did a loop south of Kinsale. I was thinking that as well regarding the EI incident.

A Jet 2 737 from Tenerife to Newcastle has just landed in Cork, being met by Fire crews according to ATC.

Special request from Fire Control was that all stay aboard and no emergency exit unless absolutely necessary

EXS021V Jet 2 757 just landing at Cork ex Manchester, I presume to bring the passengers from the earlier 737 onto Newcastle.

Perhaps a few engineers too

Nice to see a 752 in Cork

Strong winds from the North, gusting to 34kts.

Unusual to have disruptive winds from the North!

Seems to be a receiver out of action at Dublin Airport today - very poor ground coverage on FR24.

Does anyone know how many receivers there are in Dublin?

My receiver was down that day - didn't realise it would have such an impact.

B744, flying north of Ireland, is A6-COM, Dubai Royal Wing

The trash 8 nose gear problems strike again

Was it not the wing gear that it was renowned for having issues with?

Google digs up more than a few nose gear issues too though.
