On the network over California A3E54E N350FD an AS50 Squirrel. I have never seen a helo that small on the network with full ADS-B. The datablock shows it is owned by Honeywell, which may explain the fitment.

On my box now, 472005 HA-TCO Antonov 26B City Line Hungary. Hi Rod if you're receiving can you consider a logo for this one please?

John

I've got it too, John. Unfortunately it's not showing a flight ID, so the logo won't show, but I've done one anyway - see the logos thread.

Cheers Rod thanks I hadn't thought about it not showing the flight ID doohh!!!

It may be that the famous Flybe bug applies to this aircraft too, so it may show up in version 2.1 - fingers crossed!

It looks like that may be the case, it was showing CNB230F on both PlanePlotter and SBS.

Showing now on my box AE1290 87-0024 MC130-H tonight as Talon 72. just noted on my log he is showing as SINEX03.

USAF Special Ops Flight Boeing C-32B 02-4462 has been flying over Europe this evening and is currently over the North Sea, and was heading towards Northern England, but has suddenly swung North. Unusual callsign, too - HIPPY77

EDIT - 22.36: it's now turned North-West and is descending towards Newcastle.

EDIT 22.49 it's heading north again, about 40 miles off the NE coast - surely this is strange behaviour?

EDIT 23.02 timed out levelled at FL250, having speeded up from 350kt during the descent, to 400kt. Heading 349, squawking 6152. Very strange.

I haven't yet got a C-32B in MyLog. Wonder if I will tonight?

He's meeting up with a tanker QUID 83 for a refuel. In fact he is probably on the boom now. This is one of only two C-32Bs with an FR capability.

Blimey - I never knew that they could do that!

Many thanks for the info, Tom
