| Captain | Co-Pilot | Air Traffic Controller | Severe Weather Briefer | Senior Cabin Crew |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shamrock 799, Dublin Approach, is it your intention to land Dublin or will you change course, please respond, over? | ||||
| Captain, that's the tower again, they want a decision, are we landing at Dublin ? | ||||
| Of course, just keep on the weather radar, like I told you to. | ||||
| Sure. But like I said, I'm not happy about that low pressure light. | ||||
| Get me the weather for Cardiff & Waterford. | ||||
| Will do. What will I say to Dublin ? | ||||
| Tell him our intended destination remains DUB. | ||||
| Dublin, Shamrock 799, maintaining Flight Level 340, we're continuing to Dublin. | ||||
| Shamrock 799, Dublin, message received. | ||||
| Hey guys, do you still want that tea/coffee? hey, I suppose you've noticed that red light ? It was on last time I popped in. | ||||
| Yes, I'd like coffee. | ||||
| Skipper, just got Cardiff & Waterford weather, CAVOK at both, scattered at 10,000 with light westerlies, the problem is in front of us - a wide storm cell from Tuskar to Holyhead. Let me check with Prestwick weather. | ||||
| Shamrock 799, your readout is correct, severe cell activity from Flight Level 150 up to 450 in a band from SW of Tuskar up to Isle of Man. | ||||
| Good evening ladies and gentlemen, this is the Captain - there's a spot of weather ahead of us, we're going to suspend cabin service for the moment. Cabin staff, secure the cabin, seat belt signs now on. | ||||
| Captain did you say tea or coffee? | ||||
| Forget the drinks. Tell me when trolleys are stowed and everyone is sitting down. | ||||
| Captain, Dublin are advising possible closure until the storm cell passes, shall I request a diversion now ? | ||||
| OK, no drinks. What does that red light actually mean? | ||||
| It means there is a low reading from the pressurisation system. "Dublin, we have Prestwick weather update, standby for our landing decision" | ||||
| Until they close, Dublin that's where we are going. | ||||
| Dublin, Shamrock 799, Dublin ETA is 2115. Please advise of any company traffic ahead of us. | ||||
| Shamrock 299 - Dublin; Cardiff and Bristol are now closed. Both company 737s ahead of you diverted to Cork. | ||||
| All stations, that storm cell has now tracked east of Isle of man but there may be follow up activity behind the weather front. | ||||
| Captain, it is pretty rough at the very back, last six rows, all the lockers have emptied. Everyone is sitting down though. | ||||
| Captain, there appears to be a failure from the starboard bleed pressurisation sytem? | ||||
| Get the checklist for pressurisation, ask ATC for a lower altitude. | ||||
| Erm. Sorry to interrupt but two passengers are complaining of feeling light headed, can we lie them on the floor ? |
