It didn't seem to try too hard to get in. Had one go at it and then headed for DUB. Two Ryanairs that were also coming from London airports at around the same time both got in.
Is there a different wind limit for A320s than for 738s? Must be frustrating for departing passengers seeing your flight cancelled due to high winds while others get away OK at around the same time. Especially as many of the departing passengers will have had connections at Heathrow.

EI are sending an A320 to KEF this evening https://www.flightradar24.com/data/flights/ei995
Air Force 1 is taking off today for Knock. Has a time in around 12.25. It's the 757 though and not the 747 today.
North runway is now closed.
Is Biden getting a flight tour?
They are actually doing a meandering tour for the sunny day that's in it. 😂 Hilarious! Maybe they handed Biden the controls!
"There's my great-great grand-Pa's house..."
They delayed to let support get there before them
Rescue 118 was carrying out an incident, may have had an impact.
Just started and flew over my house
GRIM99 has started as well.
Drone activity. This time near Moldovan border though:
Interesting callsign. This fella just landed. Flight from Zurich, Switzerland:
FORTE is a regular callsign for RQ4 drones. I'm guessing it's a squadron calling?
Infamously "Forte12" was off the coast of Crimea on Feb 23rd last year
ADS-B app shows 3 USA refuel jets all together north of Ireland. Why would a group of those be circling together? Refueling a bunch of military jets we can't see?
Flying at 22000, 23000 and 24000 feet
2 K35R and 1 KC46A
You guessed correctly!
EI-FNH / EIN93T just passed me slowly overhead at 1500m, then back to DUB.
Is that a training flight?
And now this...?
It was a go around. It was just about to touch down seemed to struggle with the wind.
Oh right! Barely a breath of wind here. Thanks for the info.
Actually, the winds must have changed at that point anyway as he was originally landing from the right, but ended up coming in from the left.
I was out cycling it happened in front of my eyes. It was landing with a strong tailwind at the time.
5 Chinook’s just passed above my house Dublin West.
Heading into Baldonnel now.
I wonder if they will fly back to the UK or will be transported elsewhere.
I will definitely be keeping an ear and eye out.
AN 12 UR-CBG currently over the Irish Sea should rumble over the midlands as it descends towards Shannon
I just heard it a few moments ago. A nice surprise.
What was that huge plane that flew over south Dublin suburbs, coming from SE and headed NW just after midday today? It did not seem to be on flightradar.
Prob a C17?
C17 just left Bladonnel.
Not on flightradar?? Yes that looks like it.... quite low. To do with picking up leftovers of Biden visit? The Beast?
C17 landed in Knock today.
Twice.
First flight came from UK, don't know where they flew, but came back few hours later, now on its way to US:
99% was the same aircraft, reg no. 08-8193.
Visibility at Cork is reportedly around 300m - Edelweiss A320 from Zurich going directly to Shannon.
Yup. Last week several aircraft came into Ireland with the cars and the VIP choppers. They have to be collected and readied for another location.
