I'm on Flightradar 24 Professional and tracking a 'blocked' aircraft heading North West at 40000 feet came in over Folkstone and my head and it's over Bedford about now and turned slightly more towards the West, flight originated in Florence Italy. Anybody any ideas? Silhouette shows a twin engined aircraft about the size of a 767. Now turned slightly more and heading for Stoke on Trent. Now to the right of Stoke. There is a Hawk over the Irish sea and silhouette is the same so aircraft type unknown. Just passing to the right of Liverpool and still heading North West. Now 'Feet Wet' over the Irish Sea. Just crossing the northern tip of the I o M. Now just North of Northern Ireland still 'feet wet' and same heading. no more now until it goes 'Feet dry' but I will track it as long as I can as I'm curious. What uses the 'Havoc 21' call sign anybody. Edited by Olde Farte, Jul 10 2015, 10:23 AM.

I can't help with the queries, but FR24 is a lot more interesting with the smaller aircraft and helicopters nowadays. |

I lashed out and bought a years subs so I can keep things on the screen forever Nigel. As said there are several RAF Squirrels up and stacks of gliders but no sign of the flypast build up yet. |
