Reason for BA173 4-hour Delay?
Booked on BA172 later this evening and the positioning 173 has left 4 hours late.
Partially due to curiosity and partially to try and pre-empt any issues this evening, can anyone confirm why 172 left that late? A/C gone tech, late-notice equipment change, etc?
Also, the current ETA for 173 is 19:00 with 172 departing at 20:45 - is 1 hour 45 minutes enough to turn a 747 around? All sources state 172 is on-time, but that may be awaiting official confirmation of 173's lateness.
