I've got Canada's response cruising at 27000 at the moment. CFC01 A310. Wonder if the BBC will cover that one landing?
Also, regarding the coverage on the Beeb et al, I bet MOL couldn't believe his luck. Great shot of AF1 with a great big Ryanair logo on the hangar behind.

I got what I think was a support 747 here in Yorkshire.

ADFEB5  HUGE25                   74-0787 BE-   USA - Air Force      2009/03/31 18:36:26  

On Sunday 29/3 my RadarBox was on all day and I detected 11 US Military aircraft. I saw a C17 flying overhead, probably on it's way to Germany but the activity was much more than usual.

When I first detected the plane it displayed the callsign BREWR84, but HUGE25 was displayed in the Reporter.

Looking back in my log, HUGE25 was the callsign used for this plane on 6 Apr 2008, yes a year ago. So why was this callsign displayed in the Reporter for today?

ACW367

They keep coming, following its colleague on the polar route through Sweden

87C000 JAF002 20-1101 B744 Japan Air Force

That is a known issue with reporter.  It always takes the oldest available callsign into your reporter log. It does this for all planes.  Airnav are fixing in thier next version.

ACW367

Well the Japanese one certainly got the wife interested a bit more

Abu Dhabi Flight came right over the house
1 mile west of EGLC (London city Airport)

ACW367

1551C2 RA-86466 IL62 Russian State Transport Company.  Some forums have this as Presidential entourage callsign SDM9031, but its showing on the network at CTA100A
