« Last post by grxninesix on October 26, 2025, 16:00:04 UTC »

Hi ! I am living in the city center of Lausanne and i was so surprised but happy to see LSGL on the last added feeds! Only few days ago while it's almost airing for a month! So Thank you to the feeder.
as
I'm personally interested to know if there is any possibility to catch Yverdon-les-Bains aswell LSGY 131.130?
Thanks so much for that great surprise.

I was considering buying and setting up the system to stream Lausanne but I'm living in a street with huge building and in the downtown so impossible to catch 360° signals

Listener Forum / Re: Thanks for expanding LHBP Budapest... can we get Control feeds back?

Depending on how high the aircraft is, you can usually hear an aircraft radio transmission for great distances.  But, in order to hear any transmissions from controllers or aircraft on the ground, it's best to be within 10km (6mi) of the airport.  And even that small distance can be a problem if there are buildings or other obstructions (tall hill) in between you and the airport.  If you live at a much higher elevation than the airport and you have a clear line of sight to the airport, then the feed site can be further away.  If you are 56km from LHBP and unless you live on a high mountain facing the airport, that is almost definitely too far.

And can you tell me how close do I have to live to the airport in order to provide coverage? Because I live around 56 km (35 mi) from the airport by air.

That specific feed was provided by a different feed provider and that provider was only streaming LHCC Control, not any of the others.  It is not connected to any of the other LHBP feeds.  Since the feed has been down that long, it is unlikely that it will come back.  Sorry, wish there was a better answer.

LHBP Control has been down for around 127 days now, but all the other channels of LHBP work, do you know why exactly LHBP Control is out?

(very calm and the one time you wished there was a cop, walla, there was, in a police helicopter, the timing !!)

A small plane out of Santa Barbara was forced to make an emergency landing on the sand at Huntington Beach late Thursday night.

The Cessna pilot began experiencing engine trouble around 9:30 p.m. and was unable to return to John Wayne Airport, the Huntington Beach Police Department said.

The police department’s helicopter overheard radio traffic from the airport and located the plane as the distressed aircraft searched for a place to land.  The helicopter pilot maintained visual contact as the plane made an emergency landing on the sand between Lifeguard Towers 11 and 13 in the area of Newland Street and Pacific Coast Highway. “Both occupants of the plane were uninjured,” the police department said.

UPDATE: 5:52 p.m. An Air Force officer on the scene says this was an Air Force plane. The plane is a new plane model the air force introduced a few months ago as a heavily armed crop duster. The training program is based out of Will Rogers Air National Guard Base at OKC Will Rogers International Airport.

According to Air Force officials, the plane took off from Will Rogers and was just flying around the area for training and would have returned to Will Rogers to land when they were finished.

The Air National Guard is the lead agency on the scene and says everyone on board is uninjured.  Two crew members were on board, one civilian contractor and one U.S. Air Force active duty member.

No injuries are reported.

A KLM Boeing 777-300, registration PH-BVR performing flight KL-713 from Amsterdam (Netherlands) to Paramaribo (Suriname), was descending towards Paramaribo when the crew stopped the descent at FL180 at about 13:35L (16:35Z) and entered a hold due to unavailability of Air Traffic Control. After about 25 minutes in the hold the crew decided to divert to Cayenne (French Guyana) where the aircraft landed safely about one hour after aborting the approach to Paramaribo.

The aircraft remained on the ground in Cayenne for about 80 minutes, then departed Cayenne for Paramaribo and landed in Paramaribo with a delay of about 3 hours.

Suriname's Ministry of Transport reported in the morning there was a shortage of ATC controllers due to a series of sick leave messages, if not addressed traffic to and from Paramaribo would come to a stand still by 16:00, they were working on calling air traffic controllers in.

Authorities say two people were taken to a hospital with moderate injuries after a small plane crashed into a person as it made an emergency landing at Heartwell Park, northeast of Long Beach Airport.

Firefighters responded to a soccer field at the park at about 4 p.m. after they were notified of the crash near Carson Street just east of Woodruff Avenue, said Long Beach Fire Department Capt. Jack Crabtree.

  When firefighters arrived, they found a small aircraft on its belly with broken landing gear, Crabtree said.

Firefighters pulled the pilot, an elderly man, out of the plane’s cockpit and took him to a hospital, Crabtree said. Paramedics also took a woman in her 40s to a hospital for treatment after she was struck by the plane when it attempted to land in the park.

Aviation Accidents/Incidents / Re: Cargo Plane Slides off Runway Into Water at Hong Kong

« Last post by diskus on October 21, 2025, 11:20:24 UTC »

I assumed the plane went off the end of the runway as happens on occasion. Rather it took a sharp left turn as it traveled down the runway crossed a service road striking the vehicle and then off into the water.
