EY231 AUH-ISB diverted to LHE

Post by cpt_747 »

I was following this flight but now it's on short final at LHE (after making a few circles over Islamabad). Any reason?
The orbital speed of the Earth around the Sun averages about 30 km/s or 18 mps (108,000 km/h or 67000 mph).
Which means we're travelling 97 times the speed of sound. And yet we can't feel the motion,
SubhanAllah

Could be weather, I saw on news that weather in ISB is not good at this point of time.

Weather was really bad at that time, that was the reason for diversion
