One flight where I wish we had. Flying into Skiathos in Greece which is a notoriously short runway. So much so that planes couldn’t take off with a full fuel load so you’d stop at Thesalonika to top up. Plane came in to land in a storm and got slammed up as the wheels touched then slammed back down. Thought we were going to crash big time. Got off to see burst tyres. Scary. 

 

Only one go-around ever.  Flight into Dublin from Edinburgh which aborted while over the runway and within a couple of seconds of touching down.  :eek:

Dagger Is Back

Just noticed a Dassault Falcon X8 heading our way. 12 seater.

SNN-EDI approaching Inchkeith.  DUB-EDI a few miles back.  

 

He's giving it up.

Dublin looks like it's gonna land. 

 

Shannon (FR3598) following a suspiciously similar path to the Dublin flight that diverted to Cologne earlier.

Not a clue where Stansted is going now. Seems to be randomly flying over the bridges. 

 

Looking for your gaff to kick the shite out of you.  :laugh:

I’m easy to find, I’m right under the flight path. She or He just needs to park at Cramond.

I’m safe.  I just saw it fly past. 

 

I think she or he's a bit pissed off with someone, not naming any names.  :whistling:

In a week in which my 11 year-old son has expressed an interest in becoming a pilot, I'm thinking about encouraging him to try something else...

Dunno.  Think of how many countries he'd get to see - many of them in the same evening if it's a bit blowy out there.  :whistling:

I wonder where RK9817 is off to now?  Back to Stansted?  Off to Cologne?  

Bizarrely it’s heading back down south and will cross with another Stansted flight heading for Edinburgh round about the border.

Cologne. Edinburgh. Both got cathedrals, 's'pose.

 

Assuming that STN-EDI can't do Cologne as passengers may not have passports on them.
