    Irish Air Corps circling over south Dublin a few times overs the last hour. Strange to see that at 9pm and later.
    Not that strange at all in the last few weeks really.

    Well spotted, I think XRAY will be used until the others arrive, The PC9's use FOX as a throwback to the Fougas as their callsign was FOX, AW139's still using ALPHA WHISKEY & WOLF & ALPHA WHISKEY VICTOR, all EC135 fleet using ECHO, have never heard anything else, Defender is PAPA & Casa's are CHARLIE, When they go outside of Ireland they use the callsign IRISH & thats used within Ireland when that aircraft is going to be leaving Ireland as far as im aware.

    Wolf I believe is used for a formation lead by an AW (I may be wrong but think I’ve heard Eagle for a formation lead by a Eurocopter), AWV I think is a VIP suffix to the usual AW.

    Curious re the movement of Aer Lingus Dublin to Heathrow this morning. Same yesterday 3 times in a time of non-essential travel who may be on these flights, or at least three in the same direction Dublin to Heathrow.

    Freight in the belly coming through the Heathrow cargo centre would be a major part of it.

    Today's Qatar flight to to Dublin is an A350, and it's the first A350 that was entered into service.

    Any reason why there are no details about this flight?

    Learjet 31a currently off west coast of Scotland after departing Shannon.

    Strang. I was following this aircraft in FR.

    I tried to find it on other sites, but nothing.

    Went back to FR and it was passing Faroe Islands. Looked again and it was gone.

    That flight was followed a few minutes later by a Qatar 777 which seems to be a diversion en-route from LAX to Kuwait. Looks like it's about to get going again: https://fr24.com/QTR3256/246edd84

    (its starting to feel really weird when I look out the window and see 2 or 3 flights on approach in the space of a few minutes!)

    Jude13, they were there last week but only took people out from Dublin, this time it’s both ways.

    A direct flight from Riyadh to Dublin has been confirmed by Saudia Airlines on Sunday, 10 May departing at 07.45 (Riyadh time) and arriving at 13.15 (Dublin time)

    This is also worth noting.
    Passengers arriving into Ireland are required to self-isolate for 14 days, and will be required to complete this form on arrival in Ireland

    Following a flight on FR. Shown as “Blocked”
    Just passed over Holyhead heading west.
    Only other place I can find it is Radarbox.com and shows it blocked also but indicated it is a Lockheed 100-30 Hercules. C130

    Originated in Armenia. Guess it’s heading for Shannon.
