    AN225 on the way to Anchorage, but it's closed.... came across this randomly....

    Seems to be a security threat or bomb scare possibly

    Apparently a threat made against a China Airlines cargo flight from Seattle to Taipei which dumped fuel and diverted to Anchorage

    Delivery of Irish covid tests to a German lab according to the Air Corps facebook page.

    Does anyone know if 280 has been purchased? Ive seen where 3 others are being bought and one already was designated 280. Will this change reg? I expect 281/282 to remain the same.

    Before the purchase of the CASA's the AC leased another CASA for crew training, 250 I think. Then returned it.

    I've noticed that all the DUB-PEK flights don't go onto the Great Circle route to Beijing until they've crossed the UK, yet the ones going the other way appear to take a more direct path. Can someone who knows such things offer any insights as to why they're doing this?

    And it toddled off to London a couple hours later as VIR604L, so not quite sure why it came into Dublin?

    Already posted here that Virgin are now operating cargo flights from USA to Ireland.


  • Moderators, Motoring & Transport Moderators Posts: 6,522 Mod ✭✭✭✭Irish Steve


    Was posted a few days ago that Virgin are going to be operating freight only flights from Los Angeles and New York to Heathrow via Dublin. This was the first of them.

    Shore, if it was easy, everybody would be doin it.😁

    That Turkish 777 has skipped SNN. How reliable is ADSB when it comes to destination?

    777s usually go direct but when the same flight is operated by a 747 it stops in Shannon to refuel

    It’s FR24 usually that predicts the destination based on the previous destination of a flight under a particular callsign

    ADS-B doesn't tell location, that's acquired from a different source by flightradar, and it's very often incorrect. It just about gets regularly scheduled commercial flights correct, if it's not one of them it's often a guessing game as to whether FR24 is correct or not!

    Looking at Asia, air traffic appears to be picking up and I doubt that these are all cargo flights.

    In Asia would many of the airlines be state backed? As such they won't prioritise profit as much and may fly with extremely low load factors regardless?

    @Andrea B, the problem with showing hyperlinks like that is that as soon as someone looks at them, the aircraft has landed :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,917 ✭✭✭✭LXFlyer


    Do a search on the aircraft ZM416 and you’ll see it.

    And yes I found it by going through the fleet list! ;-)

    That’s why I like ADSEXCHANGE. Their funny airplane shapes leads you to look at interesting aircraft.
