    On the Marine Traffic site it is possible to follow the Coast Guard helicopters. It showed 115 landing at Castletownbere lighthouse helipad on route to the incident referred to above. Would this be to refuel or pick up crew??

    Refuel I think, heading sw now at 80 knots, will probably not see it on Marine traffic when it goes further offshore

    Not sure if anyone noticed an A330-300 operated the EI147/146 legs for the first time, with EI-ELA taking the honours and with no issues encountered. :)

    Are you sure the coastguard collected him? Just that approx 2 hours ago I noticed an Aer Corp helicopter coming in from West Cork and landing behind Cork University Hospital.

    Sorry when I say saw it, in real life that is

    Weather is forecasting for hurricane-force mean winds of 64 knots off the west coast at 3am on Thursday morning 15th Jan 15. This is on a par with the February 12th, 2014, storm. Just a heads up.

    Wednesday evening 14th could be interesting.
