No approaches at moment.

We came in on LS 910 from Fuerteventura landing about 8pm..Captain said there was a 30kt crosswind at Manchester on arrival and advised rough on the way down..We got in without problems, no rain just intense cold. I spoke to the Captain before leaving and he said the landing had been challenging..Looks like we got in just in time.

We took off around 7am on the 27th. To say it was fun would be an understatement (having waited an hour for re de-icing )

What was the issue at Gatwick?

 

[lfc84]

What was the issue at Gatwick?

easyJet app flight tracker states G-UZHX was diverted due to weather

 

[Land23R]

There were certainly thunderstorms in the area about that time as reported on the metars. Posted on the BHX forum that they also got 4 easyjet diversions - from LGW and LTN.

 

[BlueManc]

LS753 MAN-JER not going well. Departed nearly 7hrs late and now diverting to STN due weather in Jersey.

G-LSAE operating flight LS910 from FUE turned back shortly after departure from FUE and now appears to be dumping fuel. I don’t have FR24 so I can’t see what the squawk code indicates…
