Dubai (DXB/OMDB)

[dave]

Several days ago you asked us to check the feed...it hasn't been up in days.  If you could bring the feed up, we're happy to add it. 

Part of whether a feed gets listed is whether it has any stability early on.  Experience shows that if a feed isn't up in the early days, it usually goes down and never shows up again.

Well, After Tuesday night, I'm going to be offline for a long time, so I just thought it would be better to listen before I go, then you will be looking forward tilll when It's back!

How long?  We'd definitely love to have the feed, but listing it and then having it be off for a long time just invites endless emails from people wondering where it is. 

We have enough of those kinds of emails to last a lifetime. 

I'd rather wait 'til you're back.

One of the more difficult parts of managing this site is that feeds just vanish, never to be seen again.  And it's hard to tell if they'll ever be back.  We usually lean toward not de-listing them...just easier that way.

When we have some of the new code online we'll be able to tell when the last time a feed was heard from.  After 30 days or so, feeds will simply get de-listed.  If the feed returns, it will show up in the listings again.

Well, I'm flying back to England in 10 Hours so...
I imagen 2008, but hey anything can happen...

Anyway, you can have a listen in, to the quality-it's OK not perfect, but you will be able to see.

By the way, Dubai is in the UAE (United Arab Emirates) not Saudi Arabia!

When I Find somewhere to upload it...I will post the link here!

HI GUYS ITS MY FIRST TIME HERE...

I HAVE READ THE TOPIC, and i have a comment about speaking arabic in controling,,, THE ONLY LANGUAGE FOR ATC IS ENGLISH!!! my friend is areall life pilot in middle east airlines(air liban) he could let me go in the cockpit wunever i have flight, i live in saudi arabia, and i fly to dubai and lebanon
and both countries dont use arabic unless :

1-saying hi,,, salam alaykom (peace on u) sabah el ker(good morning) ..... etc, it could be used, or if on ground the pilot wants to request something like : please what runway is in use? he could say that in arabic, but after the IFR is started, only english is used, and result of not using it, is suspension... i am not sure of the case in france, or germany, but i heard that the second language is allowed to be used, specially france... i had flight there, and i heard some pilots talking in frensh...

I think the feed is gone for good, but we'll check with the feeder when we can.

Cool!!, sounds good. I wait for more info

Dare I say that a lot of RYANAIR 1st Officers do not speak good English, but they 'get by'. (Perhaps thanks to the shear professionalism of the London controllers?)

Can we possibly try to get the Dubai ATC feed up & running?? Im sure most LIVE ATC subscribers & iphone owners will agree that the LIVE ATC feed from dubai will be interesting to listen to.

CAN WE PLEASE HAVE IT UP & RUNNING??? PLZ PLZ PLZ!!

Can't see this feed coming back anytime soon.an inside source at DNATA tells me that DGCA had located a couple of transceivers near qusais and confiscated them about a yr back.They dont want to allow anyone listening in for security reasons and that transceivers would be able to pick up local law enforcement freqs too.

Hello Guys... I'm back! (Different account, a new start and a more suitable name.)

Sorry it's taken so long, life has and still is very hepatic.

I'm glad you're all still interested, and as of this morning, I have emailed LiveATC to say I can start broadcasting. The quality is far superior to last time, so hopefully it will bring hours and hours of great listening.

Again apologies, but a new name, a new start.

Regards,
Sam

FYI all - OMDB will be down for a while due to internet connectivity issues.  Hopefully it will be back soon.
