wrong logo why?

Just picked up an RAF Tornado GR4 showing the logo Peach, any ideas why?

As the logo is derived from the flight ID, what was its flight ID?

I bet it was MM something, which is what I've seen (MM09 yesterday). These IATA codes are a bit of a pain, so I've started deleting C2 field values from the airlines table to prevent these random logos appearing. I'd rather see no logo than the wrong logo ;)

Unfortunately for us that use the network that is not an option as Peach often use the IATA code as their flight ID.

Agreed Alan. Depends on your aviation interests. For me, local military is my priority, living as I do alongside the busiest RAF/NATO bombing range

Agreed Chris, guess its a matter of weighing up priorities and how often they are affected.

Sorry didn't get the ID it went off screen before i could make a note of it.

Yes I got him too, it was MM01, I also got Peach as a logo, as I only monitor using the ariel, so I changed the APJ logo to a Marham one.

They usually use MRM for Marham, maybe a mistake in setting the callsign.

Royal Falcon of Jordan logo also pops up when they use RL instead of Rebel !
