    Just as you say that more thunder and lightening.. Wind has picked up and more heavy rain... Those guys may have found a nice little window to get back home through...

    That was very interesting - I had more tabs open on the browser than I could handle there - Met, LiveATC, Flight Radar, Lighning Radar, Boards etc!

    I think we are all the same:D

    Ryanair from Warsaw seems to be coming in over the city, Is that a usual flightpath I always thought flights come in over Drogheda/Navan when landing from the west?

    He requested to fly south for a right turn in due to thunderstorms to the north

    Yeah, seems a strange one allright...maybe they are seeing something on the radar....seems to be a cell near enough to Dunboyne so maybe they are avoiding that?

    You know when a controller says 'good morning' to an aircraft you've stayed up waaaay too late...

    What's VOR? Visual only? Was the ILS knocked out?

    There's still occasional lightning in the vicinity of the airport, I wouldn't like to be going to work outside near any antenas. Hopefully the tech guys can fix it from a computer :)

    It basically provides lateral guidance only, and I think the DUB VOR also provides DME (distance measuring equiptment)as well.

    Into DUB on a VOR APP to RWY 34 16 as the ILS is U/S following a lightning strike and there's a manual reset needed on it which can't be done in lightning...

    I think this is the start of a long night in Dublin, a Ryanair 737 just went around due to losing sight of the runway at 300 feet
