EXS25LN 737 Emergency
 
Hi all,

Just on Flightradar24 and there appears to be a Boeing 737, EMA to HER circling over Derbyshire squarking 7700.

Presumably, it's circling to burn fuel to enable a safe landing, does anyone have any information on it? At the time of posting, it appears to have circled at least 5 times?

Yep! No news on what the issue was, some say landing gear.

Landed safely :D

Jet2 have apparently described it as a minor technical fault.

Another full emergency not a quarter emergency or half emergency or even just an emergency................ Why do we have this tabloid hype on what is called a professional forum ?

I believe it is an ATC term, not tabloid.

Just the same as pilots reporting "fully ready" for start up :E

A and C. Clearly you know nothing about emergency procedures but yet you comment anyway.

A Full Emergency is the official term. It is called that because it receives the Full turnout of emergency services. There are other types of emergency ranging from Local Standby where on site services are the only attendees, through Reduced Attendance Emergencies (Cargo aircraft and small pax types [DH4, JS41 etc] which dont need as many Ambulance or Fire vehs) to Full Emergencies

So it's not tabloid hype - it's the correct terminology
