Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

It's probably close to that old airfield called Carrickfin. Which will be now ploughed under and turned into a sheep pasture or used for growing praties.
Probably another example of corporate rebranding. The tourists will flock in now, where as before Carrickfin was ignored because no one know where it was.
I'm surprised it wasn't called 'Ireland North West' or something. Next Dublin will be called Ireland East!:D0 -

The above aircraft N444HE had a very lucky escape taking off from Riyadh a few years ago, they hadn't covered the engines during a sand storm, when they tried to takeoff afterwards, one engine completely failed and they had less than takeoff power available from the other one, they managed to do a very short circuit and landed safely, needless to say, that aircraft now has the best engine covers that were ever designed !
Yep, knew that, i probably flew into them when you were still in diapersTo the OP: Here's a shocker, Kerry and Sligo have airports too
But the question about Donegal was related to the very recent inclusion of that airport into Jeppesen. 0 -

As far as I know it was always included in the Jepps. At least it was when we flew in there. With the change to Navtech we only carry the plates to the airports we fly to.
More annoying was Knock, they were forever changing the name and we had to update and move the plates alphabetically around the binder:(
As a side note while playing with our new FMS database I found an entry EIMS, it's about 20 miles east of Shannon with over 2000m declared distance available.
Passing overhead I realised why I didn't see that length of a strip of concrete before............ It's the seaplane base at Lough Derg:D
Hudson approach anyone;)0 -
I had the misfortune of doing an NDB approach to Donegal...cant remember which runway(dont think it mattered to be honest). Beacon dropped in and out a lot and there is quite a bit of high ground in the area. Went visual at minimums bang on the QDM and the runway was in a preposterous position in relation to me....and there was a crosswind

Not sure if this is pointed at me...... but if it is, you really need to wind your neck in, i asked a legitimate question based on Jeppesen data in an Aviation forum !My NOTAMS tell me there is a troll alert!
1st page, no DONEGAL.... 2nd page new revision, addition of DONEGAL in between CORK and DUBLIN
Paper copy of Jeppesen charts has the change bar beside DONEGAL0 -

Does anyone know if the charter from Donegal to Aberdeen operated by Eastern Airways is still running? Thanks.
Last I had logged was mid-May and only one since then has been the EZE9047 down to Dublin on 24th June.
Contract was for six years from 2014 so presumably will pick-up pace again. Are oil crew changes seasonal? I have no idea...0 -
