Volcano stops flights

[Runway 31]

TOM663 due Prestwick from Bridgetown at 1140 and TCX7L from Vancouver at 1221

Glad I didn't do the gardening. Dublin is active too...

[Runway 31]

TOM663 is between Ireland and Isle of Man at FL310, guess they got the call they had been waiting for to continues on down south

[Runway 31]

TCX7L approaching the Irish coast heading south east so it also looks like it is heading to Manchester. TOM093 is a good bit further north so dont know where it is likely to go.

TOM663 just landed at Manchester...

Just got home, and my log for this morning has 5 aircraft.  Only one of any real interest was G-NOSE, an Ordnance Survery Cessna 402B at around 7000ft.  Possibly doing some photography?

Hi Fellas, when i woke up - been dozing - the box showed the following:
Ground - 402929 GBNOE
Levelled- A0375B N113AC TRIN
Ground - 402928 GBNOH
Ground - 404F3A ZZZZZZZZ
N/A      - 405A16
Ground - 406240
Ground - 405095 GCEGZ
Ground - A8D9B8 N67DP

No plots of course - too much to ask i suppose.
Position here is Pontefract and nearest fields are:
Leeds/Bradford - Finningly - Humberside.
The one i liked best was the ZZZZZZZZ - which is what i`m about to go back doing!!
Just for info, but what the `eck are they up to? Taken up driving or boating perhaps? Bi now, Roger (53.42 - 1.18)

Does anyone know if there is any kml layer for google earth with the Iceland volcanic ash layer? It would be interested to plot it inside RadarBox 3D.

Alert - there's another airliner moving!  RYR26P has just left Dublin looking as though it's heading for Scotland.

The "P" I think means he is a positioning flight (prob no passengers) - My money is on  Prestwick

I am currently tracking the 'Natural Environment Research' aircraft that took off from Cranfield about 50 minutes ago. It's been flying steadily at FL9950. It's due to be up for about three to four hours monitoring the ash. I understand it was flying towards East Anglia. .  

Squawking on 6421.

RYR02P has just taken off - following its colleague to Scotland.

RYR026P EI-DPE passiing Belfast at FL190 looks like its heading to Prestwick. RYR02P EI-EFZ just off Dublin also turned north

[Runway 31]

2 Icelandair 757's TF-FIV and TF-FIX currently inbound Glasgow as well

Exciting, isn't it?

Look how many aircraft I've got in MyFlights now (and Manx2 are carrying on with their Blackpool - Isle of Man flights, too).
