People who would have been celebrating us going down are now trying to tell us we can’t be happy we stayed up. Go and enjoy yourself, why you worried about what we’re doing? 😂
@Samishlol@FlightEmergency@RadarBoxCom Correct me if I’m wrong, they can close themselves to diversions but once an aircraft declares an emergency they can’t refuse the aircraft.
@niallerc @amell@glennpolley Clearly the issue wasn’t time critical so they didn’t have to land immediately. Also they were at 38000 feet alongside Shannon, it would’ve taken them a while to descend flying in circles above the airport. There are engineers at Shannon but much more expensive for the company.
@amell@glennpolley Why would they go to Shannon? They have no engineering cover, and very limited options for passengers. Doesn’t seem to be a time critical issue so best to go back to LHR where they have everything to deal with it.
