@FlightEmergency @AirNavRadar A little bit of T-Cut and a broomstick to splint the nosewheel ;)

[Bruce Gilson 🏳️‍🌈✈️ 🇬🇧 🇸🇬 @waxxtm]

@FlightEmergency @AirNavRadar Seems resolved now as TUI G-TUMN 737 Max 8 just departed, followed by Ryanair EI-IKR 737 Max 8

@FlightEmergency @AirNavRadar Let's try that again...🙄Looks like the last one to land was G-HCIF, a 60 year-old Piper Cherokee at 15.48 (Local)

@FlightEmergency @AirNavRadar Duh! No it wasn't....

@JackRalston Nice :) However, 'Signal' seems to be totally optional nowadays and rarely seen.

@flywithfraser Nice, but not quite like my experience in Suites on 9V-SKS and 9V-SKZ in Nov/Dec 2024 for LHR-SIN-LHR ;) A one-off experience I'd been planning since 2007, having grown up in Singapore from age 4.

@SteveNomadic Absolutely fascinating and very tastefully done :)

[Bruce Gilson 🏳️‍🌈✈️ 🇬🇧 🇸🇬 @waxxtm]

@flywithfraser That must be fascinating!

[Bruce Gilson 🏳️‍🌈✈️ 🇬🇧 🇸🇬 @waxxtm]

@nclflyer @flightradar24 Yes, since home from work, it's all fine now on all devices :) I can resume following 'im in the castle on his way to meet Yam-tits, landing in 50 mins at ADW

@nclflyer @flightradar24 It was really sluggish and sometimes unavailable on a PC earlier on, around lunchtime, today, yet the Android app was behaving fine - weird!

[Bruce Gilson 🏳️‍🌈✈️ 🇬🇧 🇸🇬 @waxxtm]

@hughlaurie Hurrah :)

[Bruce Gilson 🏳️‍🌈✈️ 🇬🇧 🇸🇬 @waxxtm]

@CaptBob_Nomadic @SwissportBags Interesting - can't see any flight DMM-CDG, unless it's via somewhere else and the only scheduled 02.00 departure is F3324 to JED, with the potential SV127 JED-CDG at 08.55 - all very interesting/frustrating!

@CaptBob_Nomadic @KittyHawk_media @Attarwalahusein Tried to register on Android - 'Country' field is mandatory but cannot type anything into it - the box/field will not go active, all else is OK, but 'Proceed' fails becasue not all mandatory fields completed :( Android 16 - Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra

@NanneMajor Thanks, did see your earlier post but nothing but timeouts for me so far :(

[Bruce Gilson 🏳️‍🌈✈️ 🇬🇧 🇸🇬 @waxxtm]

@ChuckIOM Groan!

[Bruce Gilson 🏳️‍🌈✈️ 🇬🇧 🇸🇬 @waxxtm]

@ChuckIOM Must try harder ;)
