guzzi Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I can't tell from the photo what the registration of the plane in question is, but would be mildly interested to know if it OK-LAZ, that was involved in this occurrence in October last year. 'Chips in oil' doesn't mean greasy fast food, it is an alert meaning that metal fragments are circulating in the engine oil. From AVIATION HERALD: "A Van Air Europe Let L-410 on behalf of Citywing, registration OK-LAZ performing flight V9-116 from Isle of Man to Blackpool,EN (UK), was in the initial climb out of Isle of Man when the crew received indications of "CHIPS IN OIL" for the left hand engine (M601E), the left hand engine lost power. The crew stopped the climb at 5000 feet, shut the engine down and returned to Isle of Man for a safe landing. Czechia's UZPLN reported that following an engine disassembly the engine was sent to the manufacturer for further analysis." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done a playback on FlightRadar24 and it was OK-LAZ involved in this 'incident' (Whatver the incident actually is) Be interesting to see what Mrs Reynolds says when she releases her statement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zammo Maguire Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 We've now got Jon Richardson stuck in departures tweeting pictures of stuff available in the giftshop. Presumably DED will now claim Storm Doris as a great commercial success and spend a fortune booking assorted comedians to come over during storm season.

guzzi Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 "Ronaldsway airport will stay closed until 1pm. Airport director Ann Reynolds explained that a Van Air CityWing flight to Belfast had to divert back to the island. It landed safely but the aircraft, which remains on the runway, is unable to taxi or be towed back to the stand. Both runways remain closed at a result. Airport fire engines are shielding the aircraft from the wind." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Be interesting to see what Mrs Reynolds says when she releases her statement it is never interesting to hear what she has to say, quite likely to turn into a rant about the sugar tax ...........

spanna Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Didn't they have one tip over onto the wingtip a few years back while operating in "rather windy conditions"? Yes. I watched it happen. Extremely lucky it didn't flip upside down and the props didn't shatter through the cabin.Also we haven't got a CAA. We are under the UKs CAA. Incorrect we have our own CAA and our own Air Navigation Order and authority over Manx Airspace ! Is that new or something to do with the M register ? ? We always got audited by the U.K. CAA and it was them who dealt with any incidents here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We always got audited by the U.K. CAA and it was them who dealt with any incidents here. I guess you mean licensing type auditing, it may be you are licensed by EASA and overseen by the UK CAA . The M register is overseen by the Manx CAA as is isle of man airspace and indeed the airport. The Manx ANO is largely the same as the UK one. Exactly where the lines are drawn I have no idea it will be shrouded in legalese no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
