Air China diversion this evening
CCA174 SYD-PEK B777 from west of TSV (north-east of Cloncurry) observed to have turned towards CNS for a while now looks like it’s heading to ADL
….. nope, now heading west |

Think of a number , double it and go . Then go again even further. That’s my technique. Good luck .

I’ve seen Chinese carriers do some weird s$&t around convective weather, including flying straight through the middle of it at night, or going 90 degrees around stuff that wasn’t actually there when you looked out the window. But yeah, that’s awesomely incompetent. Couldn’t pay me enough to sit down the back of one of those things. |

May I suggest a weather diversion, zigged when they should've zagged.
Maybe assessing a technical issue and keeping diversion options open |

No other traffic in that area was making weather deviations, I don’t think that was it.

Nope it was due weather. Heard the clowns on the radio.

What also interested me was that it was at the same level as an Emirates A380, converging at the same level.. while deviating, and lateral course was an unknown?
Seems that the level change F340 to F330 was very last-minute |
Is there a way to filter that flightaware display by time and allowing multiple aircraft to be displayed, to show what other aircraft were doing in the area at the time?
Would be interesting to see. |

I wonder how that would have worked out in TIBA……..
Hopefully they'd have been the only ones there. |
Good work with the replay. :ok: Would've made interesting reading if something did happen downroute, like that Singapore flight that peeled off to Indonesia last year.

Not sure if this will work but if you use FlightRadar24’s playback feature, you can watch it all unfold.

Is Geoff Dot flying for them now? 😉
|
Normally they have the radar off and newspaper over the windows. These guys must be new : )
|
Ex colleague at Air China said same , paper covering windows everyday and won’t accept climb all to do with radiation . Fly into edge of storm , no issue .
|
Lookin' for Pine Gap??
|
It’s amusing watching you guys criticise on this thread. I distinctly remember flying into Christchurch on a gin clear night. Heard an Aussie crew divert around weather. Turns out said weather was Mount Cook
|
Fark me that was really close with Emirates! These CCA guys really are clowns!
|
No top secret Aussie installations to get "lost" over? :suspect:
|
What’s the newspaper in the window for. Was it really sunny or does it shield from cosmic radiation as alluded above!!!!!

I’d say that was a great outcome…. avoiding Mt Cook.
