Hi John,

What is the heading of this a/c? May be I can pick up this one when it is crossing the Northsea directing Dutch-, Belgian or Frenchcoast....

[Canonjohns40D]

HI John he wasn't tracking so not sure of his heading, sorry.

Libyan AN-124 was 5A-DKN, landed EGCC @ 10:46. Wonder if anyone caught it on the box? didn't have mine switched on this morning.

Hi WAL 2T,

I'm 5 miles N of EGCC,  nothing came up on My Flights or Map. Bit strange.

Hoping to see it depart between 14.00-15.00 hts this pm.

Cheers

Hi Phil,

Many thanks for that. It seems that the a/c mustn't have been mode-s operational which is odd. I did pop over to the AVP earlier to watch it go out before so didn't have the box on. It ended up going out late at 3:50PM an hour after push-start clearance. Pic of it lining up for 23L attached.

cheers

(actually I didn't check the details for the change of aircraft. 5A-DKN was reported this morning via libhomeradar with a miscoded  id: 00C006)

Hi Chris,

Yes I found out from Yahoo Mode S group is was 00C006. Which I assume is a mis code.

This did in fact show on take-off as ZS-YVT !!!

They dont make it easy for us do they.

Cloud was to low to see on take-off even from Sale.

Maybe next time !!

Nice shot by the way.

Cheers

Hi A1F3FD Glf5 N225EE KAI77 of Kaiser Air is currently S bound on the box at 35000 sqwk 5066. He is shown as Farnborough to Inverness but it appears he is on the return leg.

I picked up Hex code 00C006 and I wondered what it was!  I got an odd callsign/flight ID for this too - 350T3U32

LCR should be operating additional AN124 pick-ups from EGCC on 13th and 20th May so this is a potential opportunity to tie up the other aircraft.
