Nothing too interesting thus not edited
Final 1630Z from 25:00 (1655Z)
Engine Failure while on vectors for second approach after missed approach due to visibility.
27:30 cleared for the 16R approach
Handoff probably on 1700Z final archive segment
checkin with tower at 2:20 on the tower recording (1802Z)
clear at Quebec at 5:00

Expecting a lot of delays/go-arounds/diversions the next couple of days in SEA. Temperature inversion is causing fog/low ceilings.

Thanks for posting the links wiedehopf. 
I personally found the incident interesting so I have produced the attached highlights audio clip. My clip also includes a few transmissions from the 16.30Z Tower feed.
Thank you for including the timings in your message as an alternative to editing.  They were quite helpful. However, what you may not appreciate is that audio files posted in the Forum are automatically added to the Interesting Recordings page where listeners do not have the benefit of any details provided by the author. That's why I tend to favour editing.

I was indeed not aware of this.
I guess it wouldn't hurt if i removed the silence and trimmed it.

I could just post the links to the archive and the 30 days should be sufficient for forum readers :)
I guess some people were a little disappointed with the other engine failure i posted then, one of the files started with 15 minutes of silence to keep it synced with a UTC starting point lol.

Yeah trimming and maybe removing the silence seems like a good way to go then.

Thank you for the heads up.

The KSEA_APP feed has much better reception on 133.650 and 125.900. You beat me to posting but I decided to post my edit, not trying to step on any toes though :-)
