Re: Question
I assume that means "problematic" ?
Re: Question
It is used for Medical emergencies or technical problems etc however in this case, as it has landed on runway 12 and exited at the end onto shorter runway 21 and pulled up and shutdown, looks to be technical.

Re: Question
Given where it's been parked, I don't think it's technical or medical.
Re: Question
No problem
I'm also assuming they used Prestwick as their alternate as it would possibly/probably be an overweight landing and they have a nice long runway to use and if it was going to be blocked for any reason would limit the impact on other movements...presuming as always

Re: Question
Posted elsewhere that smoke reported in the cabin/cockpit
Re: Question
Smoke in the cockpit would explain why they went to PIK if it was the nearest airport.
Otherwise PIK would have been a strange choice given there's a NOTAM out saying aircraft stands are available, however limited or no passenger handling or terminal building services.
