    If only it was a Ryanair that diverted.

    "Dear passengers, we will be landing at Dublin-Shannon airport soon."

    Medical emergency on approach to DUB http://www.flightradar24.com/EIN783/5a45df8


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,148 ✭✭✭Mech1


    Medical Emergency inbound

    Yeah, what he said!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,148 ✭✭✭Mech1


    No ambulance available, we have requested one from Dublin Fire Brigade?


    Is that not piss poor for a international airport?

    That is really bad.

    Someone should contact a paper.

    "No Ambulance available after Medical Emergency Scare on Aer Lingus flight"

    I wouldn't be surprised if journos read this forum for stuff like that every now and again. I doubt they'll be on this thread though.

    This thread is their most valuable thread! All emergencies and incidents are described, often in detail on here.

    Sure I even give them their headlines!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,179 ✭✭✭✭fr336


    It does perhaps sound like something that might, might, warrant journalist attention depending on the actual circumstances. They report a load of toss anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,148 ✭✭✭Mech1


    If I wanted to run any local event I wouldnt be allowed to start said event without a ambulance in place.

    But these guys can Fly+Land jets etc?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,179 ✭✭✭✭fr336


    I assumed that airports just phoned up the ambulance as anyone would and let them in :o I can understand having fire cover on sight, obviously, but wasn't aware of the ambulances.

    I think every airport should have an ambulance on site, even Waterford with 3/4 flights a week.

    There's only 2 ambo's in DUB airport, most of the fire personnel are EMT trained, one of them will go to the aircraft whilst waiting on DFB, not unusual for the 2 ambo's to be out on call on a busy night with approx 14,000 (not all on duty at once) staff and then pax also.

    76,000 work at LHR I've just looked up


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 26,403 Mod ✭✭✭✭Peregrine


    Maybe there was only one (it's midnight) and they didn't want it going to a hospital.

    Like little towns/cities of their own


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,148 ✭✭✭Mech1


    Ambulance was called from Swords when needed, should have already been there in my opinion.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,487 ✭✭✭✭JCX BXC


    I think airports effects on economies are often underestimated. Having a hub airport has a large effect on a city. Dublin airport employs almost 1% of Dublin's population.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,179 ✭✭✭✭fr336


    English sounding chap on Dublin control freqency tonight! (It's not me...Yet.)
