MEL fog causes diversions to ADL
Melbourne fog forces flight diversions to SA - ABC news report
Adelaide Airport has been busy coping with flights diverted west due to heavy fog in Melbourne. Airport manager John McArdle says four international and five domestic fights have been diverted to Adelaide, as the terminal is large enough to cope with the extra passengers. "Adelaide Airport's been extremely busy with quite a few diversions from both international and interstate and of course aircraft that were due to leave Adelaide for Melbourne have been on hold waiting to go," he said.

So far,
9M-MRD (parked at Bay 27 - end of T1), VH-EBV, B-HLR, unknown Tiger A320, A6-ERA (since departed) VH-EBI, VH-EBG, VH-QPD. Aircraft are strewn around the airport with only the regulars using the aerobridges at the terminal of which they are, B-HLW, 9V-SRC and 9M-MRG. 9M-MRG has since been towed to the old terminal. Three aircraft lined up on the taxiway towards runway 12, and the two QF A332's are parked on taxiway at Tapley's Hill road! A great morning for the ADL spotters! David.M.

Just arrived from LST, where the public address system announced JQ 736 had been damaged whilst landing at LST this morning. VH-JQG
Shortly before boarding our flight around 1225. It was announced that parts were required from YMML, they were due in at 1440. Expected ETD for JQ736 from LST was then forecast for 1630. Regards, Geoff |

Atlas N418MC also diverted into ADL. A/c departed ADL approx 15:55.
Nearly everything has departed on the international front, however plenty of delayed or cancelled flights domestically. The terminal is still packed to the rafters with pax! All told I think ADL received a total of 10 or 11 wide bodied diversions and an abundance of domestic narrow a/c! Cathay's daily A330 (B-HLW) is still on the ground as is VH-EBG. Quote:
