    No BA's mainline domestic flights operate under the callsign 'Shuttle' SHT.

    Nah, BA 14:20 shuttle from LHR to EDI. They do like 10 flights a day on that route.

    I think BA and Virgin Little Red(wet leased EI aircraft) are the only two operating the route.

    I see, would they still be referred to as 'Speedbird' by ATC?

    This too shall pass.

    Well on the liveatc feed for DUB at midnight, it was RTE Radio and people singing Auld Lang Syne :D Not sure whether this was a fault with the feed or DUB relaying it to all concerned?

    A business jet with its information being private due to owners request. Blocked everywhere, not just on FR24.

    Not easily as relaying UK ATC is illegal in the UK - it may be on AVHerald later though.

    All we know is the crew did not like vibrations that started as they approached the Holland Germany border. They decided to return to LHR.
