Just had a Balloon captured at FL220.  This must have caused a hazard in SE England.

If it is 405EF1, it is showing as cancelled by the CAA and no longer on the register.

Hello

It is probably a corruption of the flybe in your list at 22000 (hex 405EF5). It happens sometimes here with a Loganair occasionally transmitting a gliders code.

Would this be a company "HACK" ?

Saw this earlier, AAL168 Narita to JFK, interested in who can plot out that far and also the fact that the flight was showing a height of 95ft!! It kept back tracking on it's own trail line, very strange!

Taking off from Reus Airport in Spain, a Canadair CL-215 "Scooper" of the Spanish Government heading north-west and leveling out about 3000ft at just after 5:30pm local time. I didn't get the registration, but I think the mode-s code is 343611?
