Someone else asked if there were aircraft approaching that runway prior to this one. If so, how did the FR24/FlightAware vertical profile compare? Is someone willing to dig that data up?

I doubt it. It looks to me more likely that they were about a third of the way through the original left turn to 180 deg when they were told to reverse the direction of turn, which they began, only...

When you write "as per flight plan" do you mean the route as well as the altitudes? If so, what do you do if you get a full-route clearance prior to takeoff? [Edit: for your first item, you mean...

This makes better sense. A few pages back, someone posted ICAO procedures that specified 7 minutes after one of four things occurred. I have heard that those procedures changed in the last couple...

First of all, I was responding to someone's hypothetical scenario over the USA. But, since you brought it up, wasn't it reported that the Legacy pilots spotted the air force base at which they...

I don't understand how this works. How would ATC and the airplane crew start their 7 minute clocks simultaneously? Especially if the transponder doesn't work.

Looking at pictures of the runway layout, it seems that the plane would have passed the 26 sign regardless. So that wouldn't be a surprise. Also, it looks like the sign is some distance from the...
