Yes. Weather!

WIP on threshold of RW22L means that only RW04R is available for T/O & landing. The wind today fairly strong from the south-west (currently 210/13)exceeding tailwind limits for operations on RW04R.

Also RW04L/22R closed, only usable for taxi.

Off to Pisa in the morning better check with the company to see what the plan of attack will be probably accept a 15kt tail wind oh joy...

Pisa!

Well ive just landed back from PSA into LBA, and i can tell you air traffic originaly shut the runway due a hole in it! the runway reopened with restrictions due to the hole! but then the wind was gusting down the runway at 15knotts, so some aircraft could take off but some couldnt!

Presumably aircraft got in before the weather changed! Six hour delay - been a long day for some
