Do EI have handwritten load sheets ? Ours is sent via acars with the ability to print hard copy say if ACARS is inop. Saves a whole load of time.

There was a snow warning issued earlier tonight by Dublin airport for 1cm of snow although we saw about 60 seconds and not heavy at that.

Via ACARS. There seems to have been an issue tonight with the loadsheet being received via ACARS - probably due to the same flight no being used.

VG's off the blocks now, EJ's on final at ORK.

Could be it needed to be re-initialised, the ACARS that is.. Tends to confuse the system, well ours anyway in those circumstances and the crew almost always forget...

Yep and tonight was no exception, wouldn't even print at the gate hence the delay, some poor fecker had to run to and from op's.. TWICE.

I have flown in and out of New York where the snow so deep youd disappear if you stepped of the tarmac and here what would be classed a minor snow fall will close the airport!

But the runway won't have snow that deep for two reasons, one the aircraft won't be able to accelerate and secondly if they are landing they will have a bloody hard time stopping or maintaining directional control, i could also add a third reason about impingement drag and damage, so the same limitations will apply in Dublin as they will in JFK.

Should be an interesting evening.

Fire is on, FR24 loaded up and Live ATC running.

Obivously the runway won't have snow, the problem is the dopes in Dublin and cork can't clear it!

BTW Shannon did stay open through the snow.

No need and almost certainly inaccurate.

I wouldnt fly if you were my pilot!

And was cork not closed last night? How am I inaccurate in that case?

I'm not insulting the airports, I'm insulting the management.

Quick test flight.

Cycling the gear if I heard correctly.

Peregrine · 14-01-2015 04:20PM

I don't think that Cityjet was a scheduled flight.

.

Edit - Actually looks like they are trying to say the test flight was an emergency. Not the case. I heard the pilot as he was requesting clearance. He wanted to do a quick loop and did not care where control sent him. Was deffo not a scheduled flight.
