    VS044 Las Vegas LGW and VS066 Montego Bay LGW have been diverted. As I write LGW is closed.

    Try this site http://www.flightstats.com/go/Home/home.do

    You should see that VS44 first landed in Glasgow then flew down to Manchester.

    I saw a plain white 747 depart at around 10.00hrs this morning while I was trying to get out of Blanchardstown. I love the sight of a 747. :cool:
