Airport reopens after hole fixed

advertisement

Edinburgh Airport was closed to incoming flights for almost three hours due to a hole found in its main runway.

Planes were diverted to Glasgow and Prestwick airports following the discovery at 1500 BST.

A secondary runway was being used for departing flights but delays are expected for the rest of the day.

Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

They've been resurfacing the runway at nights. I went past last night (there's a train line runs along the end of the main runway) and the construction vehicles were all lined up on a road parallel to the runway, yellow lights flashing, just waiting for the last flight of the day to arrive so they could get to work. Clearly this jinxed them.
