Now cancelled apparently

Just heard possibly a C17 coming instead.

 

[White Heather]

Brize Norton have confirmed it. Should be fun for the crew in this wind.

 

[lbaspotter]

RAF, Boeing C17 Globemaster III, ZZ171 looks to be working inbound LBA as "Ascot820"

 

[Aviador]

Certainly is. Just flew overhead maybe at around 3000 ft

 

[twevsmiff]

Is going into hold for 15 minutes to assess the wind which is currently gusting over 30 knots which is his crosswind limit

Feels and sounds much stronger than 30 knots with the way the trees are swaying.

 

[twevsmiff]

He is going to try an approach but if there are any gusts above 30knots he is abandoning the training detail

 

[twevsmiff]

Now commencing procedural approach to 32 for go-around followed by radar vectoring for further approach

 

[Aviador]

He is going to try an approach but if there are any gusts above 30knots he is abandoning the training detail

I'm clinging onto my seat in the back garden so I don't hold out any hope for him today.
