    Yeah, agreed, but that was about as muchbas they bgot Ryanair got well ripped… and Stelios took a bit of a pounding (loved the idea of a credit card machine instead of inflatable vest: You “buy time” with a vest if the aircraft ditches… it stays up for 20 mins..then if you want to continue using it you swim back into aircraft and buy more time!! LOL
    Only worry is O’Leary will be getting ideas from this!!:eek:

    Glasgow got 2 emirates 777’s 1 baw 744 1 baw 777 1 baw 767 and 1 turkmenavia 757… Think that was the lot at GLA, one baw 744 was given the option of GLA but chose to try his luck at LHR…last heard of coasting south over Lille!!! DUB got a VS A343 and an AC B763

    Good shots.
    Dublin seems an airport in decline sadly, not the traffic it used to get.
    Extra kudos to you for braving the mound at DUB in this weather:eek:

    Sorry, but there’s no place for people spitting at airline/airport employees. No place whatsoever. Anyway, the report said they refused the offer for transport to their destination so it’s their own stupid dumb fault.

    Am thinking a wee bit of reporting artistic licence is at work here! I seriously doubt there was pax spitting at airport staff,then were allowed to leave without being arrested?? just some reporter “sexing” up a non event story to get his piece in the rag. not unlike the standard reports of “raging out of control fireball slamming into the deck” to describe a diverted aircraft with a sick pax! I have NEVER heard something as ridiculous as folk spitting at other folk to make a point.

    Good news that no fatalities and the precious cargo was saved too…
    Does’nt Brum have a LOT of crashes/near misses? seem to remember a Challenger or similar having a bump and the TNT 737 also an A310 missing the glide slope or something too?? scary place!
