For your Info: it is 550RVR or 800RV (runway visibility). RVR is measured by laser sights, RV is measured by human sight, hence the greater requirement. There are places, perth for example, that do not have the RVR measuring equipment.

All planes from HKG were delayed due to typhoon.
VS 200 - arrive BNE early in the morning but depart at the evening from BNE to SYD. It should be arrive SYD at about 8pm. Very late. Then VS has to cancel the flight back to HKG due to SYD curfew. |

Another issue for the domestic airlines yesterday was Canberra also having fog.

Nigel, a runway lights count is only valid for RV, as opposed to the RVR measured by instruments.
David N, fog often has clearer patches as it moves through, and Asiana may have been lucky to be arriving at the time when this was happening. If I were a cynic, I might say they just autolanded with the prevailing conditions anyway But that wouldn't be nice |

although i dont think Air Canada was diverted yesterday. Delay was more to do with holding pattern and ground delays. Someone can confirm this. |

maybe unexpected raising of #10 caught CX on the hop see one Dragonair plane sat on the runway for 6 hours with all passengers aboard, unable to move or unload

I got caught in the fog issues in Sydney yesterday. Was booked with Virgin on 8am flight to Brisvegas which was duly cancelled. Then rebooked on 10am flight which was delayed until 1110....and then cancelled! They then informed the next available flight to YBBN was 1700
I went back to checkin desk and magaged to jag a seat on the 1200 flight...which left about 1pm. I walked into my Brissie office about 1545 instead of 10am!! Best thing was my checked bag managed to track with me through all the changes and actually arrived on the same flight..well done guys |
