Interesting Aircraft

Quote from: rUNWAY 31 on September 26, 2009, 09:33:58 AMI have a flight showing a flight ID of A6-AAM but a registration of A6-EKN. Its modeS is 896012 which Airframes shows as A318 A6-AAM of RAK Airways.

A310 A6-EKN may well have had hex code 896012, but that would have been before Emirates sold it to Royal Jordanian 10 years ago !

You're right though, the AirNav server is still showing those details, complete with a photo taken in 1996 ...

Still, now that we're told the V3 release is imminent, expect good news on the database before too long !

Luxembourg Air Rescue, LX-TWO, ModeS 4D0208B, Learjet 35A not sure if this counts as unusual but it is the firs time I have picked it up somewhere north of London no ADS-B.

N88ZL Boeing 707-330B on the box about 23.15,
this was used by Beyonce for her Australian tour which just ended.
Maybe she's on the way home again ?

Cubana IL-62M flew over today. Just Mode-S, so I don't know where he was headed.

Not an interesting aircraft in itself but a first for me. A LH CRJ9 tracking on the screen. First time I have seen a CRJ track.

Although it seems to have no heading...

It probably does send heading (which ANRB doesn't display), along with TAS, but not track or groundspeed (which ANRB does display if sent).
