3 hrs 35min delay on BE3063 to La Rochelle from BHX.
I believe the E75SG-FBJA went tech when inspected early morning-substituted (eventually) by Dash G-JEDP
€250 compensation all round for this flight,and the delayed pax at La Rochelle.
Expensive day for Flybe

Dash G-JEDP due to arrive BHX from Belfast but then diverted to CVT (Coventry) before repositioning back to BHX to operate the La Rochelle flight.
Plot thickens-I've seen other Flybe (only) divert to CVT-anyone know the reasoning-certainly not weather.

FR24 CVT diverts.
It is indeed a common problem on FR24 to show flights diverting to CVT from BHX.
Flybe flights especially get this treatment on a regular basis. I guess it is due to the ADS-B feed is lost on certain aircraft once they get below a certain height,or,before they get to a certain height in the climb.Flybe Dash8Qs and ERJs regularly show up as diverting to CVT.Possibly because CVT is relatively close to the final approach to BHX on rwy33,the FR24 computer or whatever it is guesses that because the feed is lost at this point it assumes the flight has landed at the nearest airfield which is CVT.

Challenging days ops yesterday at MAN with two full blown emergencies on the Q400 fleet However well contained by all and minimum disruption to the days programme
Well done guys..
More postive news in that it looks certain we are now taking outsouced work back in house as it should be
