![]() [More than 1,300 flights to and from Heathrow Airport will be disrupted after a fire broke out at an electricity substation in Hayes, two miles from Heathrow, just before 11:30pm last night Heathrow has suffered a significant power outage with officials deciding to close the airport until at least 11:59pm tonight with flight disruption expected to last well into the weekend Heathrow confirmed 120 flights were already in the air when the closure was announced meaning jets had to be diverted and rerouted to other airports] Some were Dumped in Ireland. [Over 100,000 homes were left without power overnight but has now been reduced to around 4,000. A National Grid spokesperson said the fire had damaged equipment and they were 'working at speed to restore power supplies as quickly as possible' London Fire Brigade said 10 fire engines and around 70 firefighters were still on the scene at Nestles Avenue in Hayes just before 6am with part of a transformer still alight Around 150 people have been evacuated from surrounding properties and a 200-metre cordon has been put in place as a precaution] https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...e-flights.html Last edited by arista; 22-03-2025 at 04:50 PM. |

yes, terrible
many flights coming in to land, are likely being diverted to Gatwick ![]() also one would think, with europe's busiest airport in mind, you'd check the sub station for any problems more often also a whole day ![]() few weeks ago we had a outage here, and that was fixed after 1 and a half hours approx. but then again ours, was a normal issue, while this one there is fire damage so that might explain why this takes up a whole day to fix |
