Aviation Audio Clips / DAL1192 Lightning Strike Descending into KATL

« Last post by RonR on April 09, 2024, 11:25:56 PM »

On April 9, DAL1192 was on initial approach to KATL when the crew declared an emergency due to a possible lightning strike.  There was bad weather in the area at the time.  They asked the controller to expedite the approach.  DAL1192 landed safely a short time later on runway 8L and stopped on the runway so that emergency crews could inspect the aircraft.  The A321 taxied off the runway a short time later on its own power.

Feed Outage/Status Reports / KCHO Back Up After Internet Outage

Most of the KCHO feeds are down at the moment due to an Internet outage at the feed site.  Hopefully it won't be a long outage.... stay tuned...

Listener Forum / Re: Please help me find audio of aborted landing

« Last post by RonR on April 05, 2024, 08:58:20 PM »

Go-arounds happen more often than you might realize.  Sometimes it's because the aircraft that landed first didn't clear the runway fast enough or a departing flight didn't start its takeoff roll fast enough.  In your case, the pilots of your flight were not happy with the final approach to the runway and decided to go around and try again.  I sent you a PM regarding the audio you're looking for.

Aviation Audio Clips / Engine fire forces Southwest flight to abort takeoff at Lubbock airport

(only one scanner at LBB, so did the best I could to keep the tx's for just the incident)

LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - Passengers described a frightening situation aboard a flight that aborted a takeoff in Lubbock on Thursday evening.

The Southwest plane, a Boeing 737 bound for Las Vegas, stopped its takeoff at around 6 p.m.

The airline tells us the crew suspected an engine issue. Lubbock Fire Rescue responded and confirmed a fire in an engine; crews worked to put it out.

The plane returned to the gate nearly an hour later under its own power. That’s when passengers were finally able to get off the plane.  No one was hurt.

We spoke to some passengers who credit the flight crew for getting them through a scary situation.

Passenger Jennifer Barbee said, “They made us feel very safe and did an amazing job because we were literally coming offf the groud to the air when it happened. I just feel very lucky that nothing happened. A lot of people were scared, but we all agreed that they handed it so well. The pilots kept us safe because if we were to have gone up into the air, I dont know what wouldve happened.

The Lubbock airport closed a runway for cleaning and inspection.

Aviation Accidents/Incidents / Re: NJ Earthquake - KEWR Tower Issues

« Last post by leftseatrighthanded on April 05, 2024, 12:02:49 PM »

11:58ET heard a better sounding tower transmission come on, and a controller said, "I got it, Nate," as if handing over from a backup or mobile station to the main. Other transmitters were struggling to hear the tower for the last 40+ minutes, even though everyone else sounded clear.

Aviation Audio Clips / Northeast Earthquake Affects KEWR Operations

« Last post by RonR on April 05, 2024, 12:00:26 PM »

An 4.8 magnitude earthquake at around 10:19AM eastern time rumbled across the northeastern United States today.  It was centered in New Jersey and felt from Albany NY down to Washington DC.  KEWR stopped departures and arrivals for a short time and the tower controllers were moved to an alternate site.  Because of this a number of flights had to divert to alternates...
