Limitations
Could the Aurigny pilots help me understand the limitations that caused delay then cancellation of the Stansted flight (and others) yesterday the 23rd. Obviously the weather was foul and the crosswind was a culprit but this was 30knots give or take all day and I thought this was just about ok. Indeed several Aurigny ATRs landed during the afternoon and a blue Islands atr 42 also landed although they had two goes. A couple of the flybe dash 8s came and went.
Given there were some landings and the plane was at the airport all day I don't really understand why our Stansted flight couldn't get away. Mind you I don't imagine it would have been a comfortable ride had we gone.
