Fucker. It should be illegal for big planes to just burn fuel over residential area.

@oleksandr why though, at certain altitude, the noise is nonexistent and the emissions are so spread it doesn’t matter where the plane is

@oleksandr holding pattern waiting for landing slot?

@ljs @oleksandr on the super busy Brno airport, it’s tough, yeah, you miss your scheduled landing and then you queue behind all that crazy traffic they are having

@pony @oleksandr I find nothing wrong with what you just said.

I mean I want to go to Brno. And... um... probably other people and stuff.

@pony @oleksandr @ljs you might have to wait for the single daily scheduled flight to Stansted, what a disaster that would be

@katka @oleksandr @pony waiting a day is a day too long mate

@katka @oleksandr @ljs it’s even daily now? Wow!

@ljs @oleksandr @pony i understand the need to get out of Essex is often very urgent

@pony @oleksandr @ljs I may be overstating it you're right

@pony @oleksandr @katka err guys why is it max turbo priced out until near end of aug???

@oleksandr Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, in the middle of one of the most densely populated areas in Europe...

@pony @katka @oleksandr 252 quid... hm tempting.

@ljs @oleksandr @katka late August is basically free? I’ve seen more expensive Flixbus trips from Brno to Prague

@ljs @oleksandr @pony 250 quid for the privilege of flying ryanair is grim

@pony It flew at 600 m only, the noise is huge.

@pony @oleksandr @katka seems july/early august is prime time.

So probably Brno is in HUGE demand during this peak holiday season.

Incredible place.

@ljs Optimistic spinning, yeah, been there.

@katka @oleksandr @pony lol yes it's a lot for them!

@oleksandr people say I'm a pessimist though

@ljs @oleksandr @katka that’s bit weird, I’d assume it’s mostly people flying out of Brno and coming back, but then why to stansted

@pony @oleksandr @katka tbh stansted is the worst airport so flying somewhere anywhere to get away is valid

@ljs BREAKING: [PATCH 00/13] locking/mutex: introduce pessimistic spinning

@oleksandr knowing my luck lately it'll fucking include some wrong headers and never get merged...

@oleksandr that's a commercial flight, why the heck is it making circles over Brno?..

@farcaller As per Flightradar24, it flies from Brno to Brno, so fair enough technically.

@ljs For a fair pessimistic spinning you should include all the headers available.

@thomholwerda No wonder a Dutch man is always depressed.

@oleksandr I suppose it has to do something with maintenance. That doesn't look like a training flight. That'd also explain why it keeps close to the runway.

@farcaller This happens regularly FWIW.

@oleksandr Wouldn't you be if you had to live with 17 million of us in a far too tiny swamp? 😂

@oleksandr maybe it's cheap to rent an Airbus to fly around in Czechia :3

@oleksandr this is that one austrian that does training flights every single day, no?
i am generally always happy to see it, because it flies low and sometimes does funny stuff. what is the problem there, some ecological impact?

@lkundrak Not every day, but quite often for me to notice as it flies just over the building where I live. Hence the ecological impact on me (noise).

@oleksandr and now I'm just sitting in here tuned to LKTB's tower frequency and trying to figure why planes repeatedly fly over your head 🤔

@farcaller Is this how the vacation is spent nowadays?

@farcaller @oleksandr
Brno airport is set as a technical and rescue airport for CZ. I.e., if you train a pilot how to land, it is done here. If you do any certification, if it is done here. If you do the landing without landing gear it is done here. This is not an excuse for low-attitude flights, but it explains frequent circles around the airport.

@ljs @oleksandr you need to depessimize yourself
