Hi, my ANRB detected the Mode S code AD2489 everyday, but it shown no information except Mode S code and altitude (28600 feet). does anybody know what aircraft it is?
Ithink this must be a misscoded box.
Is it a military aircraft?
I dont think so, the code gives a registration of N946MD which according to the FAA site has not been assigned.
Sorry Runway 31, but this doesn't appear to be correct,
According to various other sources, N946MD, an MD83, was transferred to Spirit of Manilla Airlines in the Phiippines last year and became RP-C7703, although on delivery, it was still carrying the US reg. (piccy at jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=6813907)
It is also recorded in MacDac's production list as:-
49946 DC-9-83/MD-83 1898 EI-CCC N946MD RP-C7703
Can't find any record of who actually owned it when it was N946MD though.
Regards,
Syd.

Depending on where the OP is located, it could well be GECAS MD83 RP-C7703 using its former code.
It is still misscoded then as the FAA dont consider it to be registered as N946MD.
Although we have possibly identified the actual aircraft.
thanks for your inoformation, but how to know the registration of AD2489 is N946MD?
jayyang put your codes into the appropriate box on here http://www.airframes.org/
On this occasion it will not worjk as the aircraft is no longer registered N946MD
