What is being transported aboard these Antonovs, is it just general freight? It seems surprising that a 1964 Antonov would match a modern freighter in operational cost terms

They don't land in Dublin, or if so, very rarely. I can only recall two times in the last two or three years (approximately) when they landed in Dublin. One was an An-12, and the other was Cavok Air's AN-74, which, from memory, was carrying horses.

It's on the way to Luxembourg from Halifax by the looks of it. No sign of it going to Shannon!

Ahhh - is that why you'd sometimes hear the callsign 'Irish' on ATC?

Generally used when the flight takes them outside of Irish airspace yeah.

The transponder’s Aircraft ID needn’t necessarily match the callsign being used. Could be that either they were using Alpha Whiskey as their callsign, or using Irish without changing the Aircraft ID to IRL279

There is currently a air corps 139 coming back from aldergrove airport under AW279, when ever they where across the border they use to go under IRL279
for example but i have noticed lately when ever they are cross border they dont use the IRL prefix any more. Is that just Flightradar not updating when they go north?

What happens when crews go out of hours? Then you're stuck on a different island with a foreign currency. Not so fun then!

Not to mention that not all passengers may be allowed to enter the UK, non-EU citizens may need a visa.

I remember that exact conversation on ATC and it stuck with me.

TBH I'd rather divert to the UK.... at least they have to fly you home then, unlike chucking you out of Shannon or Belfast, waiting ages for a bus then waiting ages for said bus to get you to Dublin. Usually with a UK diversion they like to get you back in Ireland (Dublin) ASAP.

AFR1716 seems to be heading towards Cork Airport after looping around Dublin.

Has me wondering though why more flights weren't diverted to Cork since it wasn't affected too badly from the winds and flights are on time etc? Just want to expand my knowledge on this stuff

Re Cork I heard an EI pilot during a previous storm, in discussion with ops, reject it as an option as he felt he could find himself “down in a corner“ if it didn’t work out. Going to Uk leaves more options open. Ops preference was to have diverted pax “on the island”

Turkish A330 now on approach:

Ahh, that explains the delay on the outbound, this morning's flight was cancelled, and there would have been no empty 330 Turkish bins in Dublin, so the outbound bags for both flights would have had to wait for the bins to be offloaded, and extra cleaning and catering etc. Friend of mine was on it, and wondering why there was a delay, now we know why.

That STK8BH flight that just took off is the first time I have seen a plane use that runway from Cork Airport. Its most likely used a bit but i've not seen it before

Hmm, currently descending over the Lake District. Wrong approach for MAN, maybe heading to Glasgow? Seems to be holding - maybe for MAN, it looks like it was heading there after diverting.
