Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

[GliderPilot]

British Airways BA873 G-EUPK A319 has diverted into BHX tonight, was on its way into LHR, barely entered the hold and then started making its way north.

FlexJet G-FTFX EP600 Diverted to BHX also, was due into Oxford but I'm assuming it isn't equipped to handle CAT 3 ILS/autoland

G-EUPK just departed back to Heathrow 22:04 under BAW8TK

DHL G-DHLW 777-F6N Diverted in this morning, was due into East Midlands,

Slight possibility that G-DHLR 767-316(BCF) might follow it, thats currently in a high-level hold near EMA.

Due to EMA runway snoclo, we had DHL 767F G-DHLW divert in earlier.
Currently another DHL 763F is doing many circuits of the north Midlands waiting for the runway to open at EMA.

G-DHLW was a B77F , departed around lunch from BHX Sun.Unfortunately too foggy for me to see it .

Still another very nice divert for BHX to accept.

Munich has been suffering from exceptionally heavy snowfalls with th result that they airport was closed for many, many hours - in fact nearly 24 hours - and hundreds of flights have been cancelled.

Yeah I saw an image of Munich outside the Allianz Arena as Bayern Munich's match with Union Berlin was postponed and it is safe to say it had more than a few centimeters of snow. So Munich and Europe all affected by Snow worse than us

 

[BhxJack]

Some klm flights are cancelled as they are expected to have snow

National B747-400 (N919CA, NCR259) to HKG is showing as 'cancelled' on FR24.

With extremely high winds due tomorrow, we may have an interesting day at BHX. Although we are set to be on the southern flank of the worst of it. Westerly to northwesterly will hopefully be favouring runway 33 for arrivals.
Manchester could be tricky, later in the day.
