Post by: String on November 25, 2012, 01:50:03 PM

RYR1168 is on hold over coleraine due to some sort of visibility issue at derry airport just got him saying he need 800meters but is reading 600m not sure if that is mist or fog issue Flight may be diverted depending if it can clear soon.

A king air airplane has just diverted to aldergrove doesn't have enough fuel to stay on hold. Pilot from ryanair flight 1168 can stay for 1hr before diverting to aldergrove. already been here for well a while lost count how many times he has been flying around my house.
I will post some pic's of both aircraft.

I watched it go round 4 times, it may have done more, as not many aircraft fly over it caught my eye. Hope all ok?

Kingair went to BHD because BFS is covered in fog too.

I think the KingAir made a couple of attempts to get into BFS,I heard it going around a few times,no visual though as it is a pea-souper world up here.
