@Rocko[/USER] or [USER=2692]@Joe Player - feel free to move my posts to the Aviation Disasters thread. I didn’t realise we had one of those.

Is this a disaster?
The fact people managed to walk away from that is incredible.

There’s at least 13 people dead. Do you need a minimum quantity dead before classing it as a disaster?

TreatyStones February 4, 2015, 9:44am 147

Ya, it’s only 13 chinese as well.

Most business travellers on here regularly use Air France (cityjet) to London City. You’ll be fine mate, they’re grand.

Rocko February 4, 2015, 1:25pm 151

Air France don’t own CityJet any longer mate.

FFS. Ask someone from Fingal if you’re not sure.

The Antonov 225, the biggest plane in the world is landing in Shannon again tonight, cementing the Shannon Estuary’s place as the home of Irish aviation, given that Dublin’s runway isn’t even big enough to accommodate this beast of the sky.

TreatyStones April 12, 2015, 9:55pm 155

Can hear the engines going now as it prepares for take off

Joe_Player April 12, 2015, 10:15pm 156

artfoley April 12, 2015, 10:18pm 157

TreatyStones April 12, 2015, 10:41pm 158

Took off at 11. Serious noise off it.

artfoley April 12, 2015, 10:53pm 159
