Barrel of Fun
Abort, retry, fail
Stopped snowing for now but just heard from ATC
that the runway will be closed till at least 1800.
Is there anything that Paul Camillin doesn't know?

Er, not if the runway's closed, which it has been for hours today. Either they divert the inbound flights elsewhere, cancel them or delay them at their point of origin.
Tomorrow you'll have lots of aircraft stuck elsewhere when they should be at Gatwick so it will still be a nightmare. Just heard EasyJet staff telling passengers whose flights they've cancelled that they have no availability anywhere till after Christmas. Bad times for people trying to get home.
What happens to planes trying to land in a situation like this then? Can they still do so?
*consults crystal ball*
Am on a night shift that night, I can post an update at, say, 2am, if you like?
No snow balls on the beach Mendoza?I am on an Easyjet flight home at tonight, due to land at 20.20 I think.
Not looking forward to a few hours wait and misery in Edinburgh airport. Ah well at least it's not the Eurostar
ps if anyone is drivng from Scotland back to BN1shire pm me
Hmmm, I don't start work till 1300 so no idea what's going on today but I was sure last night that today things would be warmer & aircraft would at least be
moving.
