EK A380 @ ROSUN hold.

EK17 OMDB - EGCC looked stunning whilst in the hold at ROSUN at 6,000ft a few moments ago.

Anyone know why the hold is so active today at ROSUN as arrival rate / departure rate is not that hight?

One thought is the vis is 6000M at Man and they are using 05, would the viz this at this level reduce the arrival rate at all?

Cheers in advance.
