Thats one of the reason it took time, its freezing cold and limited service, so the transfer took longer then planned

Before all the bash on how Elal handled this breaks loss;

Can someone figure out if AF paid comp?

Another high arctic Canadian diversion - https://www.flightradar24.com/blog/lx40-a-new-engine-in-iqaluit/ - I believe they only waited 4 hours as the timing was around when the European departures where goign to head back to Europe so they canceled a flight from NY and send it to rescue, whereas Elal LY8 landed in middle of night and they didnt have an acft/crew available

when it's every day life for many in Israel.

Not quite. Never had a situation where we were told a presumably nuclear warhead was headed our way

[Bostener]

Of course.

They have these equipment in Goose Bay?
Or they shlepet every suitcase by hand?

Exactly my thoughts. There is a difference between a ballistic missile coming your way and a rocket manufactured by Hamas.

I said many, not all. This was ballistic, not nuclear CMIIW

They're not mutually exclusive. Ballistic refers to the trajectory the missile takes. Nuclear refers to the payload.

I stand corrected.

But chemical biological did happen

[ExGingi]

But chemical biological did happen

Didn’t actually happen, but was feared.

[aygart]

Didn’t actually happen, but was feared.

Yes. It happened that they feared

[ExGingi]

Yes. It happened that they feared

But not really feared by people who trusted when they were told that Eretz Yisroel is the safest place.

Buncha dirty Jews on a Jewish airline. Nu nu. Love how the Hawaii missile test gone wrong got so much coverage when it's every day life for many in Israel.

It could have been a nuke for that matter. Ppl thought that Hawaii might be history.

Not taking away from the craziness of the situation in sderot etc.

Does anyone know what kind of cellphone coverage they had in Canada? Were they able to charge their phones the entire time? What did the plane run on the whole time?
