Can anyone tell me what these German Transalls are doing round here - is there a special exercise going on? Where are they flying from / to?
Rod
-
It is about this time of year that the German forces exercise on Otterburn.
I have not seen them on the roads yet, and have not been listening for then on OTA.
The C160's were around at the correct heights for paras!!! into OTA, but don't quote me on that!!!
I had one heading in towards Leuchars.... but lost him due to lunch!!!

Hi on the box now AE12B0 USAF MC130H Talon 71 88-0191.

HI re the VC10 referred to in post #19 above I saw this on another site.
Cant see any mention of todays QRA which has been ongoing since mid afternoon.
Involved were XV105 VC10 90P62 and two Tornados ZE338 and ZE757.
The thread continues suggesting this wasn't a drill but an operation against a Russian Aircraft which had strayed a little close. Interesting stuff!!!

miscoded 03C094 FlightID FANG 2 using Spade codes 1752 heights upto 4500ft
If miscoded from 43C094 would probably be a gazelle as there are a batch in the region of this code.
Any Ideas or confirmation?
Eventually left the area at 23500ft using a london Mil Squawk.

Hi off topic sorta but anyone help please? i have an IcomIC-R5 radio, presently the aerial is a home build. I get some Military traffic but not a lot. I realise it might be my location although I have had air to air refuelling. Anyhow do you use a scanner and if so what VHF UHF aerial(s) do you use please?
I got the DPD ADSB Aerial and it is well built and I'm pleased with the results. They have a VHF UHF dedicated aerial and i'm sorta tempted.
Any advice welcome.

Hi Tom I had AE1CC6 earlier but no other details must check again.
John
John,
That is strange - it's not on GAS or airframe.org but there's even a photo in my database. I haven't updated my database so it's come from somewhere. I have heard that AirNav use more than one database for updates.
Looking at the entry in Database Explorer it even has the construction number and the LK, PT, LK2 and PT2 cells have the photographers names and photo details/URL.
Try going into Database Explorer and removing any ... from cells for that aircraft and see if it updates for you.

-
Hi Tom I have checked the Database and firstly I can't find anything on AE1CC6!! I then had a look at my Pictures which If i understand it correctly are there because the RB picked those aircraft up?
I have two sets of two of two different F15s logged there 00-3000 and 00-3002.
Any thoughts?
john
-
John,
I have 00-3002 as an F-15E of 492 FS, mode S AE1795. I have not got a record for 3000 but as the ser is just 2 digits away I'd be surprised if it isn't an F-15E from the same squadron.
Tom
-
Just for interest this is what I've found on the net regarding F15's if any one has additions or corrections I'd be gratefull. I'm sure they will make their way on to GAS and Airframes soon.
Cheers John

Hi Steve, ALLIED 1 used by US Navy C-40A have you a mode-s for it.
Have not got him on my box in Derby
Cheers John
-
Also USAF C17 over South East England this afternoon.
-
John, If I've got this right (not really played with the logs on here yet) then mode-s was 738A92 and is Israeli Military.
Steve
-
Steve,
No tie up for the hex code found but from your jpg he was decending. Maybe Lyneham or Brize? Were you listening on the radio to him by any chance. He has not shown on my box:-(
John
-
Steve/John
I had put this up before I assume this is the same aircraft.
Hi two USA types on the box now. A regular on here AE08F6 US Army 85-0152 RC12K Huron Argus 65. The second AE11FA a USAF C40C BBJ (737-7CP) 02-0203 Boxer 46.
It would appear i was wrong in USAF if that is the case and it was a US Navy aircraft?
John

A few days ago I had Allied 1 on the RB it was AE1285 66-0225 MC130P.

You were not wrong John, I only found Allied 1 in my log used by AE0977 165834 Boeing C-40A Clipper. So it looks like its used across different arms of the American forces. Perhaps someone in the know may be able to shed some light on it. The aircraft today had an Israely hex and I could not find it on the net.
So its interesting and a little mysterious:-)
Sorry if its caused any missunderstanding
Cheers John
-
Hi John no misunderstanding I was interested in this callsign and so i asked on another site. This might help explain it!!
Allied 1 is not the ATC callsign, ie, you might hear things like C130s using it on sbs, but might be calling as Talon/Shadow etc on a scanner, have seen a Dutch AF reported as using it once before too.
John
-
Steve/John
A bit more, apparently an Israeli C130 showed up on SBS and Radarbox with Allied1 as its "callsign" today. It was going into Brize on a Cargo flight. It was 738A92 serial 545.
John
if you would like to see it it's here on final approach.

John
-
Hi John,
You've found the gap in my system, without scanner at the mo so might have been a bit clearer to me had I been able to listen. I just asumed it was the callsign/Flight No.
Thanks for the info

John

Hi Canonjohns40D,
I had both 59-1468 and 58-0074 over Dublin this morning while taking pics.
Unfortunetly the clouds prevented me from getting either of these.
If I get any pics, I usually try and put them up on FrequencyDB.com under Aircraft monitoring.
Cheers
Conor.

Another KC135 58-0072, the fourth over Dublin this morning at 08.50

Currently on my box 43C397 PM631 Spitfire XIX BBMF at 7000ft

Strange one: 43C0AE, No a/c type and flight id: 1DR10 descending through FL60
Googled the mode S id and comes back as an Army Dauphin 2 ZJ783
-
Keep an eye out for the Dauphin II,they`re used by a certain specialised army unit?
Regards Terry.
-
Hi 43C0AE, flight id: 1DR10 is recorded on my box here in Northern Ireland at 4.50pm. I was in work but my family were around the local area in two different locations at this time. They couldn't wait to tell me about a "military" type helicopter seen by them.
They are used to me and my spotting and do a reasonable job in my absence. They described it as Army green with sort of pods on it. I showed them some pictures to aid identification. It would appear it may have been a Dauphin and headed inbound Belfast I would assume Belfast Aldergrove (RAF Aldergrove).
I'll keep my eyes and ears open this evening.
John
-
Yes John,
There was an article in either Radio User or Monitoring Monthly last month or Feb,explaining the covert ops they are used for and where they are based,not all together obviously,but this specialist unit has 3 Dauphins and the Magazine gives the Hex code as well!
Regards Terry.
-
HI Up now 43C0AE, flight id: 1DR10.
John
-
AE0545 C5-A Galaxy 70-0447. No C/S
Keeping an eye out for that Dauphin again in case it's returning from whence it came.
-
HI on the RB now 43C035 and 43C031 no other identification??. And the return of 43C0AE, flight id: 1DR10.
John

It's pretty common to see civvies doing charters for the US military and using REACH or RCH callsigns. If I recall, I had a World Airways MD-11 overhead last night with an RCH callsign.
In another thread there's mention of a Flyglobespan 767 doing a charter for the RAF and using an RRR callsign.

Depends whether or not the crew enter the flight id in the FMS/Transponder panel before departure. Under Eurocontrol regs the id should be set and match what is entered in the flight plan so perhaps the aircraft in question are Europe bound. Not sure what the FAA policies are in this respect.

The thing with KC-135s and maybe some other airframes are that they do have an ID programmed, it's just that the Radarbox doesn't decode it. The SBS will. This is one of the bugs to be fixed in 2.1. That's why this is odd to me. I've logged 64 different KC-135 since March 28 when I dumped old MyLog data. These are the first two I've got an ID for. Someone else in the area with an SBS always get the IDs.
-
Roger that. 5 out of 16 KC135s with IDs here in my log... thanks for pointing that issue out in the 2.1 development btw as I was a bit baffled as to why aircraft have been popping up all over the place without Flight IDs.

Do you mean Miami Air Reach aircraft not usually seen in your area?

That's right yes, don't usually catch those from here as Reach operators. Looking back through mylog I have that aircraft once as BSK501. Perhaps a product of the increased coverage due to new antenna.

Interesting Flight-ID for ZE775 43C156 a Tornado - TIRPITZ1 seems a bit heavy....... Which Squadron anyone????
Airframes comes back with ZE755 which is a former 25sqn a/c operating out of Boscombe Down. Any squawk?
-
OK ZE755 - was working from Memory as it had disappeared as I wrote the message. Was suspecting 617 or 633!!!
No Squawk noticed but height was less than 5000ft.
I think I saw something about a low-level in the lakes in memory of someone from the war, but not sure which week that was due!!!
Barnes Wallace comes to mind. - in memory..
-
I logged ZE755 between 18:59 - 19:10 at FL220. Didn't see it pop up at the time but would have been interesting to see where the Squawk was allocated from.
-
MY Log shows him at 22100 at 19:39 hrs leaving system at 20:13hrs at 390ft.
It was the FlightID that caught my interest!!!!
-
Must be an incorrect hex code. ZE755 Tornado F3 was withdrawn from use in March 2008 and scrapped at Leeming. Possible its box was recently fitted to another aircraft and the code was not changed.
-
It could be a reuse of the Mode-S.... and Airframes and the RB Server software not having caught the airframe change....... As I mentioned it was the Flight-ID that caught my attention.
-
...or "Gant, can you fly that plane? Really fly it" ;)
-
AFAIK hex codes are not reissued.
-
libhomeradar has this aircraft as ZA598. Tornado GR4 15sqn?
-
Barnes Wallace died Oct 1979. Tirpitz was sunk on 12 Nov 1944. Wing Commander (later Group Captain) J B "Willie" Tait RAF DSO*** DFC* ADC who led the successful attack on the Tirpitz died 31st May 2007. Roy Chadwick, who designed the Lancaster, died 23 August 1947. Can't imagine who they would be commemorating.
-
Lake District, Wallace and Wife - were if I recall the article regular visitors to a specific hotel.
Local paper was reporting a planned event - openning of the property as a tourist attraction - will have to look in lakeland news sites.

Can't see why they would use Tirpitz1 c/s for that. Although Barnes Wallace designed the Tallboy bomb used to sink the Tirpitz, the events most people identify him with are the design of the 'Upkeep' bouncing bomb and the Dambusters raids.

Certainly looks like it, google points back to an older post in the forum but nowt popped up in my forum search. Must be a bad typing day.
Now ICAO:000001 has popped up with c/s STRIKE11, no other information apart from the squawk code which keeps changing every few seconds. Wonder if this is some sort of decoding issue.
-
Looks like 91-0306 has a slight technical problem?

-

Other than the perpetually changing transponder code all I've got is ICAO:000001 and the callsign STRIKE11, there was an F15 up earlier with a similar fid: STRIK11 (mission name?). It was about for much of the afternoon (midday-3) with the freaky squawks then re-appeared around 10pm squawking 0443. Another F15 or Raptor perhaps?

What's with all these French A310s lately?
Operation Joint Warrior, starting 11th May. Now got a New Zealand Air Force B757 at FL130 into Kinloss approach (KIW845). Looks like being a great 2 weeks of action.
-
Chris
What are you using to get such good pictures at FL300?
I'd like to know that too Chris,nothing to do with the wee nurse who lives about a mile away & who's bedroom window is directly in my line of sight...
Seriously though I would like to know as they are good pictures.
-
@tarbat thanks yes of course that starts early next week doesn't it? as you say there should be some great stuff popping up on the box. I'll have the camera pointing at the sky when possible for certain.
@malc: Canon EOS40D with EF100-400 IS lens. It's good for the big aircraft up to FL400 at near overhead transit but smaller aircraft closer to the horizon are digiscope territory.

Lots of US military aircraft here in Bogotá; but most of them send a Mode S ID beginning with AE (e.g. AE1539, received today) and "Allied1" as the flight number. How do I find out what aircraft type these are? (Probably transports; but who knows...)
Today AE116E was (unusually) sending a little more than the Mode S ID. It sent "84-0179" as its registration. No idea how to determine what it was.
-

Yep it's one of the Omni Air fleet operating under contract for Air Mobility Command. It'll be a troop flight.
Aircraft used to be long to ATA so it probably became property of said bank after their demise.

Nice pictures,the Emirates ones are cracking.Whereabouts are you?
What equipment are you using?
-
Wow thats amazing!
Whilst that aircraft was shown on the map and in my list (showing full ADSB), I also had another RCH aircraft, Lockheed C-5B Galaxy (L-500), AE0573 in my list...
(its callsign did show up in the list, but now after looking in my Log, the callsign is not present??)
Anyway, looked out of the window to see a huge wake trail over my house behind a heavy aircraft which blatently wasnt showing on my radar - reached for the binoculars and there it was in all its beauty Lockheed C-5B Galaxy (L-500)!

John,
An RC-12K is not a Huron, it's a Guardrail Common Sensor aircraft known as a Guardrail. A Huron is the plain vanilla C-12 series. :o)

Technically, John is correct - Guardrail is a program name, whereas the official DoD name for all C-12 variants is Huron, regardless of mission. See DoD4120-15, which is the bible for all US military designations.

Hi Guys I took the Huron details from the Airnav pics so hope it didn't cause any confussion. Thanks Dave for the info on US Mil Designations.

Unfortunately, I didn't have my RB on having only just got back in from work and my wife was monopolising her lap-top! At about 1958 - 2002 this evening a pair of aircraft probably half or a mile line astern, passed overhead at about 3-4,000' guestimate, from the quick glance I had of the rear of the second one, they were twin jet engined with high tailplane (like Learjets - they may even have been LJs......? but I don't think so) in military colours. They continued west, probably 5-10 miles out over Mounts Bay, then did a slow turn to port and returned east, to the south of The Lizard - did anyone monitor them - any info. would be appreciated.

They are now roughly one to a pound ;-)

That's how long it took the partners to come up with a name that wasn't rude in any of their 4 languages :-)
And even the the Germans reportedly objected to flying an aircraft with the same name as a WWII Allied tank-buster ...

Ah well 'Entente cordiale' oh sorry the French were not involved ;-)

Hi Puddy and Welcome.
You cannot see USAF (with few exceptions ) and UK mil ac on the screen as they do not have full ADS-B. The same applies to civil aircraft that do not have ADSB.

Re Israeli Air Force B707 '264'. Came over Chelmsford yesterday and the RB picked it up, luckily for me as I neaded it, showing callsign Allied 1. Only trouble was that the deatils below my flights told me it was an Irish Air Corp PC-12.
How come?

How come?
"264" is indeed an Irish Air Corps PC-12.
It's also a South African AF Hawk, a Chilean Air Force Cessna O-2, a French Air Force Mirage F1, a Chilean Navy Bandeirante, a Kon Marine Lynx, etc, etc.
That's the problem with translating a hex code into a military serial and then looking up the details on, say, Airliners.net on the assumption that the same serial isn't used by any other air arms.
HTH

Dave, many thanks for that. So am I correct in saying that the dsata I see in MyFlights screen re the Hex Code is from the database or GAS but the details shown below the MyFlights screen are coming from the photo that is on Airliners.Net

You would really have to ask AirNav but, yes, my understanding is that some data comes from the GAS server based on the hex code, but the registration/serial is used to look up other data on Airliners.net and so is subject to error if the serial (or reg, come to that) is/has been used on more than one airframe.
I don't know why it's being done that way.

Welcome to the world of Lakenheath F-15 tactical codes. They change daily and may be used by differant aircraft on differant sorties. If there is any consistancy I don't think anyones worked them out yet:-(

Hi Terry,
As John says - sounds very Lakenheath F-15-ish to me also.

Picking up 43C1BB at FL220 with a callsign of RR9825, but not an aircraft I've picked up before.
Anybody have any ideas what this is?

43C1BB TOR 2009/05/20 10:42:12 2009/03/06 09:19:17
Allocator,
I'm hoping its one of the 2 TOR that were at Northolt for the photo shoot this weekend
ZE956 or ZA557
ZE956 should be 43C044
ZA557 ?
43C1BB I have had it before with BATMAN C/S so maybe 9 Sqn
hopefully someone may confirm later today.
Not much help I know but we might get a result:-)
Cheers John
Edit :- Bit of a typo above should be ZE936 TOR F3

Thanks for the info John.

Picking up 43C1BB at FL220 with a callsign of RR9825, but not an aircraft I've picked up before.
I'm working through my Tornados at the moment. I've got 43C1BB with callsigns TESTID01 and BATMAN01. Minimum altitude for each flight were 190ft and 380ft, suggesting a GR4 operating on the Tain Range.
-
the following callsigns with Hex IDs noted at the same time tonight, I presume 'somewhere over France'
'VASEU573' 3B777D
'MARC360' 3B7777
'CEV4652' 3B7780
'CABI574' 3B7779
all at FL250 or thereabouts
no idea what these are

43C1BB TOR 2009/05/20 10:42:12 2009/03/06 09:19:17
My last attempt at tying this up was a non starter. But here is some more info gleened from the web.
43C1BB picked up as RFR 9825 2009/06/07 12:46 by me
On MSF Forum 6 x TOR reported at Lajes enroute USA. From the codes (fin No's) reported one was ZD744
Followed a link on Mode-s@yahoo forum to a tornado list posted by Ray on the Kinetics Forum were 43C1BB is linked to ZD744 as yet unconfirmed.
So I'll keep looking at the logs from the USA and see if there are any contacts there.
Cheers John

I tracked these two Italian Air Force KC-767's as they moved NE just north of KLAX. I lost contact with them as they passed over Mojave Airport at FL 210.
AA521F N764TT BKC6 Untitled 2009/06/17 20:43:43
AA5D44 N767TT BKC6 Italy - Air Force 2009/06/17 20:46:29
From my quick research, I do not think these two tankers have actually been delivered to the Italians. So, this may have been a test flight over the Pacific and/or over Mojave.

Easily answered with the help of the CAA's G-INFO.
G-JENC was cancelled to military marks on 27/05/2009. The other three Shadow R1s, G-NICY, G-JIMG and G-OTCS (to become ZZ417, ZZ418 and ZZ419 respectively) are still on the civil register.

As a foot note 43C2B3 was picked up by my box and was reported on another forum as operating out of Hawarden late last week on two occasions so (as yet unconfirmed to a serial but maybe ZZ417) Watch this space.

Where on earth did you get that tie-up from ? What was the hex code ?
The French Air Force retired their Mirage IIICs twenty years ago (the aircraft was a contemporary of the RAF's Lightning) and c/n 50 is in the museum at Savigny.

It wasn't 3F9923 50+35 C160 that was around yesterday was it as airliners.net don't like the + in the serial. Hence the 50 35. Just a thought.
John

The Transall sounds a lot more believable.
However 3F9923 does indeed come up in RadarBox with details for French Air Force Mirage IIIC "50 35", complete with a link to a photo of Russian Air Force Mi-8MTV "50 blue" !!
Come on AirNav, it's not rocket science, you know what you need to do to get the aircraft details and photos working properly ...
-
In fairness,
3F9923 almost downloaded correctly without the +
I got one photo of the transall and one of a japanese P-3J. I look forward to V3.0 being sorted then Airnav can get on with sorting all the database issues.
John
-
I got one photo of the transall and one of a japanese P-3J
Now I'm even more confused - are you saying that users don't all get the same photos when they pick up the same aircraft ?
-
The problem is if the aircraft 'registration' is something daft like 234. A search on airliners.net with such a meaningless registration is always going to fail, whether it is done manually or automatically by RB autopopulate.
Just try this one example to see the effect!
-
One onthe box today :-
B1871A FlightID STORM51 Squawk 7000 Height 14700 - Not found on Airframes, even as a False!!!!
Any ideas please.
-
The problem is if the aircraft 'registration' is something daft like 234. A search on airliners.net with such a meaningless registration is always going to fail, whether it is done manually or automatically by RB autopopulate.
That's precisely my point - the RadarBox server ignores the fact that it already has a hex code by the time it does the photo lookup and hence knows the type, and probably the operator, as well as the 'reg'.
So instead of searching airliners.net for a photo of the aircraft it has already identified, say 'French Air Force Mirage F1 234' for example, instead the AirNav server does a totally random search based solely on the serial, and not only does it display a photo of the first '234' that it comes across, whether or not it bears any relation to the already-identified aircraft, it even populates the database with details which could be for a completely unrelated aircraft.
As I said in a previous post, AirNav have said that once V3.0 has settled down they will be looking at better ways of doing the above. I hope we don't have too long to wait.
-
We copied this one. We will investigate what might be wrong with the server algorithm.
-
Thanks for that AirNav.

Oh sorry, you all seem to have all the codes in your heads.
KMCC is McClellan in California, US.

Oops - sorry missed the reference to KMCC - apart from knowing it's in the States, I would have had to look it up :-)
I did look up the aircraft, though, on Airframes.org, and it's unfortunately not the Iskra, but a USCG Hercules. AirNav are working on getting the database updated better in the future!
Sorry to disappoint you :-(

Well actually that makes a lot more sense. C-130s from the USCG (US Coast Guard) and the AF Material Command fly out of here. The USCG C-140 is 1715.
I have to go to that site and improve my learning.
[I didn't know if we were being invaded or if it was just a pre-invasion reconn flight... :-)]
Thanks for the quick ID.

Hi Malc41,
Only one I know of is 43C5C5 ZF511 Opt by QinetiQ / ETPS out of Boscombe Down they also have ZF510 but can't find a code for that. The Boscombe Fleet seem to fall in the range of 43C5BA to 43C5CD

We get quite a few flying up the river here, but just bobbing above/below the tree line. Thought that was maybe what was causing them to not appear, but obviously not.

Guys, this thread has really taken off (pun intended) but it has truly changed my view, I have always been interested in civil aviation, but now military aircraft has caught my attention mostly because of your enthusiasm on this thread and of course this would not be possible without RB. Keep it up.

I spent a happy (but somewhat strange) 3 months there in 1981. I didn't know that there were that many F104's in the whole world!
There was an excellent aircrew feeder called Enrico's that was good for lunch. We were living down town in Cagliari living off pizza, wine and beer - oh, those were the days :-)
For some reason I didn't take my camera with me which was a great shame.

it is still open permanetly for german and italian planes , plus frequent nato countries, included israel a few months ago. the british have left permanently due to budget restrictions so has the us, but the latter are more ore less always present.
the playground is always active except in august and the cubic corporation range is open, and mirto radar, frasca range too

Very impressed so far.

Hi fatkat,
From my own observations the Typhoons only seem to use mode-s when operating from BAe facilities or with RFR c/s when going on deployment, and then its only the lead aircraft of the flight which is transmitting. (Frustrating but makes sense from a security point of view)

Whilst at Coningsby I was told they only use mode-s for singleton aircraft or as John has pointed out deployments.

Does anybody know what kit Tucano's have on board, and has anybody ever picked one up on RB?
No idea what they have; but I'll be keeping an eye out for them in SKBO (once I'm permanently up ... getting there).
I have not knowingly picked any up so far (the Colombian AF flies them); but I have a *lot* of unidentified Mode-S that I hope to eventually figure out.

Indeed it was:
(http://www.civilaircraftregisters.org/Mode_S_Resources/Cessna%20UC36B.jpg)
Not only is the aircraft type quoted incorrect for the hex code, it's a type which has never existed ! (the UC-36B was the military designation for the 1935 Lockheed 10E Electra).
I despair ...

Although on my Radarbox it was listed with no registration or photo, an unknown. But then my Navdata database was built from scratch from other sources (GAS, Aerodata, etc.).
EDIT: My preferred source for military (http://www.live-military-mode-s.eu/) has AE1191 identified as:
Serial: 03-0016
Type: UC-35B / F-15E
Operator: 2-228th Aviation
Although even GAS have this one wrong!!!

I know I've asked this before, but do you have any specific examples of two airframes which have been recorded using the same code?
Still trying to get my head around the reason why, if the same codes are swapped around from one aircraft to another, we appear to have seen many more codes used than there are F-15s in the UK.

Dave,
As I said before, I deleted the logs with the F-15 serials as they made no sense. If you go to Albert's site, http://live-military-mode-s.eu/ you will see that all the serials of F-15Es at LN are now in brackets meaning that although the relevant code has previously been tied to a particular tail number it can no longer be guaranteed. You will also note that most entries for F-15Es have no serials recorded.

Hi all,
Called in at Cottesmore on my way to Peterborough yesterday. (Took the box for company). While there 3 x Harriers launched.
ZG511 left as a singleton (no mode-s) followed by ZG505 & ZD379
43C3E2 popped up on the box when they initially started up then went off until they were airborne. (43C3E2 should be ZG505).
They came back a while later as a three ship and did some circuits.
43C2E2 on the box until after the run and break then off until it blipped when they shut down on the flight line.
Had 3 more Harriers on the box about the same time (not seen) they must have been out of Wittering, which was all quiet when I passed on the A1.
Challenging hobby but thats what makes it interesting:-)
Cheers John

It's possibly 12+09 but the GAF also switch codes.
It was 1205, visually confirmed nightstopping at Aberdeen.

Thanks, Dave.

08:05L - AE2924 MC-12W 08-0462 (332AEW) FL270 squawk 6151. Departed PIK this morning. No c/s recorded but probably BADLY03 which it used when arriving at PIK.

There's a suggestion on the Kinetic forum that it's actually 81-0952, based at Spangdahlem with the 81st FS. It came up on my box with c/s HAWG01, which would fit.

Well, Dave airframes.org could be wrong. I just don't understand your last remark. Do you mean it came up on your RB as 81-0952?

No I only picked up the hex code (on my SBS rather than RB).
I was simply referring to the fact that HAWG is an 81st FS callsign, whereas 81-0977 according to Scramble and Aerodata is/was based at Nellis with 57Wg/66WS.
-
81-0952 seem to be correct for AE19D4,
once in a while they show up with their regs mentioned instd of the usual callnames.
Thus AE19D4 came up with 81009520
as well as
AE19E1 e.g. showed 81009660 several times

You can't always go by callsigns Dave. e.g. there was a HAWG95 in the area yesterday too but it was an OC-135W :o)

You can't always go by callsigns Dave
True, at least not without taking the hex code into account too :-)

French Air Force A340 081 callsign CTM1018 3B7781 just passed over Prestwick at FL390 heading south in direction of Manchester

For a long time I have thought that this thread should be renamed 'any military aircraft' due to the routine nature of the reported aircraft from the RAF & USAF. ;-) OK agreed the MC-12 transit was unusual
HOWEVER, At last a truly interesting Mil aircraft in the UK. Just had 750156 A319 9M-NAA Callsign NR1. Malysian Air Force flight departed Luton and went directly over my house with full ADS-B. Shame about the 8/8ths cloud cover.

Hi ACW, interest is relative isn't?. What is 'routine or uninteresting' to you maybe interesting to others, that said 9M-NAA is different, I saw it come up on my box and never saw it either. Ah well....
-
Tramline et all. This is my personal view and I know many of you will not agree with it. I just feel this topic is unwieldy in its current form. In my opinion there are yahoo groups like reachhunters_int or Touchdown-news that are better suited for the reporting of UK, US and European Mil aircraft that are near their home country or on routine transits like the many GAF Challengers or Reach aircraft. These groups are really useful and I use them regularly for the routine spotter type reports.
It is very hard with a topic that has got to 40 pages in under 4 months to find the gems. I dip in and out and sometimes miss the unusal transits lost in a sea of UK based aircraft/Europe based aircraft. Therefore I miss the prewarning that I could have had to target the aircraft with an alert etc when they arrives over my head.
I would prefer this topic only to highlight unusual transits like US Army MC-12s routing to and from the Middle East, or foreign fighters/helicopters deployed on major exercises. A Typhoon picked up over California on deployment is interesting, a Typhoon flying over the north of England is topic clutter that hides the good stuff. Just my 2 penneth
Sorry if it offends. I stand ready to be shot down in flames.

Well argued and I won't shoot you down. It's all about opinions, perhaps we need 'Military Gems' and 'Military Aircraft' threads? Again, its all down to opinions isn't?
-
I seem to remember that CanonJohns40D started this topic off because some people who are not interested in mil ac were getting sniffy about them being reported on the 'Interesting Aircraft' topic.
I'm sure lots of our members have found it useful and as far as I'm concerned anyone should be able to post about any mil ac that they find interesting. Remember, some people live in areas that are rarely visited by mil ac and so find it exciting when one comes up on their box and wish to share the experience.
If you want to start a topic about 'military gems' then go ahead and do so, but don't complain if you find other members' idea of a military gem does not accord with yours.
As for prewarning of mil ac coming your way. ANRB is not much cop for that, for many reasons. For that you need PlanePlotter, preferably with multilateration.

Hi guys,
Tracking south now having just passed overhead East Kilbride and transmitting ADSB is GAF179 a CL601 with c/n 3049 , registration 12+04 with mode S of 3FAAA2. He is currently flying over the border heading for Lakey.

Are you sure this is a new C-130J ?
Scramble (the Dutch Aviation Society) has this as C-130H msn 4988, ex US Navy 162313 and N9239G.

Dave, I got the info from a guy on Reeach Hunters international but you are probably right as I see that Albert's site the same info as Scramble. It's radio c/s was Mashall4 and I did wonder why a new Herc would be in Marshall's.

3F9988 is German - a Transall 160 - I think your system is suffering from Photographic information corruption due to the Non-Unique Registration being used to key the request for a Photograph, and then using the information attached to the photo to overwrite the correct information from GATS.

And the Aeronavale Frégate (no 51) that RadarBox comes up with is WFU, so there's no way it could be that aircraft.
Unfortunately, the incorrect aircraft details/photos bug isn't scheduled to be fixed in V3, but once that's released the signs are looking good for a solution in the not-too-distant future.

Dave, is that wishful thinking, or have Airnav given some sort of firm commitment to fix this? Maybe planned to be included in Airnav Flightwatch (http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=3062)?
-
I thought that AirNav were supposed to rewrite the request string, for the Photographs, to be more type and registration specific to reduce, but not eliminate the problem!!!
-
Dave, is that wishful thinking, or have Airnav given some sort of firm commitment to fix this?
Sorry, can't comment any more in public at this stage.
But put it this way - if the problems persist in the long-term, it won't be because a permanent, reliable, comprehensive fix wasn't available (it is).
In the end, like most bug-fixes and improvements, it will come down to pressure from users - I know I certainly don't like seeing incorrect details and random photos of unrelated aircraft, especially as those are usually much more exotic than what I'm actually picking up !

The easy way is to hit the PrtSc key on the keyboard, this copies the screen to the Windows clipboard. Open Windows paint, or your favourite graphics program and select Paste.
You can then crop the bit of the screen that you want, save it to your desktop, then attach it to your post using the Browse button below the forum post reply box :-)

Both myself & Terry logged the Hunter as well.
I would probably have missed it were it not for the text from Terry - thanks Terry!
Makes me wonder what other gems have gone undiscovered in MyLog.

Hi Anorak
Re those Quid callsigns, it was interesting. They were refueling a B52 or B52s off Lajes.
I saw this on another site which was offering this information:
Reference to Quids 93 and 94, their receiver was CHILL 42 again B52(s).
It has been on a Global Power mission to somewhere in the Med Sea (Possibly Decci range?).
Quid 91/92 refuelled it inbound, 93/94 refuelled it outbound.
they don't have to hit a range, a few months ago a couple of B-2A's got as far as this side of the Atlantic off Lands End before turning home on a Global Power.
I think the B-52 must have got as far as at least Sardinia before turning back?
it's amazing what goes on around and above us and these comms above were clear on HF Radio!!!

Hi Spaice could they be related to the Clinton visit? I'm interested as she is due Belfast this afternoon/Evening so we might see some unusual traffic, certainly for NI, across our skies as a result.
What sort of route were these taking please?
John

Hi Canonjohns40D, I'm unable to verify the route, just picked up an KC-135 62-3550 AE07B9 as I type this, for a Sunday afternoon it is busy with American military. I am based in Chesham, Bucks,
Now I have 82-0653 AE19EE listed as a Thunderbolt.

Cheers Spaice just thought it might give a heads up if they were routed our way. It seems anyhow She may be for Dublin before us here in belfast so probably too dark for pictures.

99-0004 ADFEBA is a C-32A callsign SAM5794 and was most likely carrying Mrs Clinton.
Nothing unusual in so many C-17s (and a few C-5s), would be unlikely to be anything to do with Mrs Clinton unless she has taken a battalion of infantry and a few light tanks with her. :o)

They do on my map! PlanePlotter with multilateration. You don't even have to have a Radarbox or SBS1 but it's nice to share.
Conditions might be particularly good today for you.

Just picked up and watched US Navy E6A Mercury "AE0411" depart my temporary local airfield, using full ADSB and "GO TO FMS" as his flight id. Should be 163919 according to GAS.
My temporary location? On holiday, currently in my hotel room overlooking an airfield at 21N/158W!

I've got what is showing in My Log, as Mode S 157714 Russian Federation, no further details - anyone else got this one showing - any ideas as to what it is?
Googled it and come up with this

so presumably non-military, apologies! What a wally!!! - just realised this is the photo index no., nothing to do with the aircraft ID.

You're right about the non-military part - it's the weekly Cubana IL-96 into Gatwick, CU-T1254, using the hex code from its previous Russian identity RA-96020.

Many thanks for that Dave.

Sorry to disappoint you, but it must be 30-odd years since I last saw a Kon Marine Tracker.
I'm afraid it's yet another example of the aircraft details/photo bug - what you picked up was neither of the two aircraft pictured, but a French Army Socata TBM-700.

Morning All, I have CATBIRD on my screen, any comments from those that know?

It's Reg N35LX. This is a heavily modified 737 which is being used as a testbed for the avionics suite that's destined for the new F-35 Lightning II. A very nice one to log.

I had CATBIRD today too, from 10:38 to 11:41 UTC. But this was AE0357, which decodes to USN C-20A (Gulfstream 3) 830500.
-
You are right Dave. I tracked that C-20A in on PP mlat from Lydd this morning.
Where I think the confusion arises is that N35LX flies under the title CATB (Cooperative Avionics Test Bed) and is known as CAT-bird.
For those interested there is a analysis of the aerodynamic design of the CATB ac here:

Hi John,
He's showing a heading of 281º on PP. He's just passing REMSI.
I've found this prob before when RB doesn't show heading and SBS boxes do.
Tom
-
So where is the heading on PP coming from? An SBS sharer I presume if you're saying that RB isn't decoding heading on the port 30003 output.
-
HI Tom and thanks. I found him showing on the RB just afer I posted he was heading NW. Indeed he became visible SW of my home location., though the heading didn't appear on the box.
John
-
So where is the heading on PP coming from? An SBS sharer I presume if you're saying that RB isn't decoding heading on the port 30003 output.
SBS doesn't output heading either (only track), but in this case said C-37 doesn't broadcast track (although of course it's possible to derive average track from successive lat/lon reports).
-
Westbound, at present just passed BPL,Trailing well. RCH 851. 02-1112. One for you Canonjohns?

In this case I was not using mlat and the bearing was shown in PP under 'course', so I assume the ac was sending it.

To clarify, that C-37 sends ADS-B Airborne Position squitters (which is why it plots on BaseStation) but doesn't send ADS-B Airborne Velocity squitters (hence no groundspeed or track on BaseStation).
It may send track and/or heading as EHS DAPs, but none of the enthusiast Mode S receivers decode these, so the PP course value can only have been derived from successive ADS-B position reports.

I'll have to ask Bev if PP does that automatically as I was not aware it could.
Tom

According to John on the PP group it uses the prediction feature to plot a course from the position data. Should have realized it myself :-(

I don't think that's the case this time, probably due to a transponder swap. The only GAF flights I've ever logged into KIAD are C-160s and A310s. Probably unlikely they'd fly a Challenger across the pond for these typical visits.

Let's hope he doesn't have a make a trip to MPA in the Falklands - a 24 Knt crosswind would be a calm day - lol

-
A steady 24 kt is no problem - I think the C-17 can take 30 kt @90º. It's the unpredictability of gusts that make it dodgy to land. Discretion is the better part of valour.
I've been tracking him on PP and he's made it to Prestwick. Just after he departed the squall hit us here and the baro dropped to 989.

That's simply an argument about definitions, pretty pointless IMHO.
If it helps DoD4120, which is the official US MDS bible, defines the VC-25A as an AF asset.

New owner of Airnav Radarbox , how do you set filters etc to pick up military traffic , do you need more equipment or software. We have USAF "Reach" Traffic all the time C-17's , C-5's etc but I have yet to pick any up flying overhead - they trail overhead every day .
All I seem to pick up is civil airliners , even missed a biz jet landing at my local 10 miles away , yet someone with SBS-1 I know picked it up on their set.
Any info appreciated - I only have the bog standard provided aerial.

Hi Microlight,
You don't have to set filters to pick up mil aircraft but you will not see them on the screen because, with a few exceptions they do not have full ADS-B. But they should display on the interface.

Hi Tom
It's the standard aerial that comes with the Radarbox and it's on the windowsill.
We have a number of airways directly above my location and USAF Military transports are going over on a daily basis at frequent times mainly C-17's and
C-5's.
Whats the best setting for all the filters anyway - what do you have "Quick Filter" set to ? Not sure which filter to have as their are so many...
-
John - have you had this recently?
Rod

John,
Ghost 71 was operating close to you in AARA13 today. I tracked him in PP for over 2 hours. He was squawking 3671 because he was under Aberdeen control.
The squawks can be confusing unless you know the region the ac is in. 3640-3677 covers Aberdeen and 3660-3677 covers Solent App.

But not for much longer !
Now that V3 is released, AirNav have said they will turn their attention to fixing the incorrect aircraft details/photo bug once and for all.

Correct - although the CTM ICAO code is specifically France's Military Air Transport Command (Commandement du Transport Aerien Militaire Francais), as opposed to the generic French Air Force/Force Aerienne Francais ICAO code FAF which you will see used by, for example, the E-3s.

MLAT or CIRCLES in Planeplotter can give you a clue of it's location.

Now that's a useful feature to include in Radarbox v4.0. If MLAT isn't possible, then sharer circles can really help pinpoint the approx. location of an aircraft.

Or simply a box swap - unless the USAF decides to publish their U-2 allocations, who are we to tell them that they're wrong ? :-)

Stuart,
You can disregard routes for military aircraft. I tracked him on PP mlat via LAM>Luton>REMSI. He has just passed SLYDA heading for RINGA and Oceanic at FL260.
Tom
-
Cheers Tom I thought it was odd a routing. I don't usually get stuff around Lyneham on here as I'm too far north.
-
You can disregard routes for military aircraft.
And, arguably, they shouldn't be in the database at all unless they are regular, scheduled flights. The AirNav server does indeed return EBBR-EGDL for BAF642 - not sure what needs to be done to get that removed.

Last week the THT flight was from Ascension to Brize but diverted into BHX. It's a trooping flight and I'm led to believe that THT took this flight on after the demise of Globespan (is this correct?). It's an A340 by the way.

That's odd - I read that Air Italy had taken on the Ascension flights.

I think this may be your answer. I pcked up the two VC10s at the same time. Credit to SWAG.
12:10 Heading West BZN-VLN-LND are "Ascot 9387/9388" VC-10 K.3s ZA149/H & ZA150/J with "Ascot 9911/9913/9915/9918 flights" Harrier GR.7's heading to the Azores for a stopover whilst enroute to Nellis AFB to participate in a Red Flag exercise.

However, Airframes has 45F42F as M-505. Anybody know which it is M-517 or M-505?
Thanks
Kevin

Kevin,
This ac arrived at Yeovil today with a crew to collect a new Merlin and was confirmed as M-517. It has on previous occasions used the c/s M505 which may have led to the confusion. Previous reg was ZK162.
Even more confusing is the fact that today he was using the c/s DAF3360 which is one usually usually used by an AS550C2 Fennec.

Wow! Did you get a visual confirmation on this one Tom? No chance of a miscoded box?
-
Didn't get a visual myself but it was flying around at 8,000' in the area that Marshalls use for air tests and there is a Tristar currently at Marshalls. My first thought was that the box was in it since it was a civilian, but that cannot be right as ADS-B was not around then. I assume they are either retrofitting or trialling it.

With regards the Tristar, Marshalls is about 1/3 of the way through a cockpit upgrade for the RAFs fleet of 9

I think the first few were Mode-S only, it looks like the rest are getting the full ADS-B treatment. :-)

Yes, the 5 current ASTORs don't use very imaginative callsigns - ZJ690 to ZJ694 are invariably ASTOR1 to ASTOR5 respectively, unless they are feeling a bit rebellious when they've been known to use, for example, ASTOR03 :-)

Red Meatball of a Japanese Air Force 744 flying overhead in Texas right now:

Looks like others on the network caught him coming east from California.

That route needs to be removed completely from the database, not updated.
The Japanese Air Force clearly doesn't have a scheduled route network, besides which ICAO designator JAF doesn't belong to them anyway, but to TUI Airlines Belgium t/a Jetairfly.

forgive my ignorance, but is the route actually invalid, or is it more a case of an "unfortunate/unavoidable" consequence of the Japanese AF callsign inadvertantly taking another operators route purely by having "JAF" as part of the flight ID?
I've often noticed "mis coded" ICAO codes picking up dodgy operator logos as a result of presumably flight crew error.
Just curious!

I've often noticed "mis coded" ICAO codes picking up dodgy operator logos as a result of presumably flight crew error.
The route is both invalid for our purposes, since clearly the same callsign has now been used on at least two different routings - JAF001/002 is another even more common example - and also illegal under ICAO rules:
In accordance with ICAO Doc 8168 [PANS-OPS] Vol. I, Part VIII, 1.3, flight crew of aircraft equipped with Mode S having an Aircraft Identification Feature shall set the Aircraft Identification in the transponder. This setting shall correspond to the Aircraft Identification specified in item 7 of the ICAO flight plan, or if no flight plan has been filed, the aircraft registration.
Aircraft Identification, not exceeding 7 alphanumeric characters, is to be entered in item 7 of the flight plan and set in the aircraft as follows:
Either,
(a) The ICAO three letter designator (not the IATA two letter designator) for the aircraft operating agency followed by the flight identification, for example, BAW213 or JTR25, when:
(i) In radiotelephony, the callsign used consists of the ICAO telephony designator for the operating agency followed by the flight identification, for example SPEEDBIRD 213 or HERBIE 25.
Or,
(b) The registration marking of the aircraft, for example GINFO, or EIAKO, when:
(i) In radiotelephony, the callsign used comprises the registration marking alone, for example GINFO, or is preceded by the ICAO telephony designator for the operating agency, for example SVENAIR EIAKO.
(ii) The aircraft is not equipped with radio.

Just logged my first Royal Navy Merlin
43C31B ZH849 of 829NAS RNAS Culdrose
-
Hi Dunc, pleased for you. Living only 6 miles from Culdrose and a mile from its satellite Predannack, I hanker for different things as we're so used to the Merlins, Sea Kings and Hawks, with occasional Lynx visits and infrequently Pumas. We used to have a couple of Gazelle squadrons, but sadly lost them about 12 years ago. Oh, for some F15s/16s/18s, A10s, Tornados or Typhoons! Nimrods I hear on the R/T but rarely see.

Hi CoastGuardJon,
I live in Leicester and for me to get a Merlin is rare to say the least!
I currently am using only the aerial that came with the radarbox on my bedroom windowsill, but actually manage to pick up loads of C17s, C-5, C130, Kc135 and the odd Harrier and Tornado as well as F-15s.
I have finally persuaded the other half that an aerial on the roof is the way forward and all being well am buying one this week.
Hopefully i will then be able to to enjoy the exotic aircraft from the SW! :)
-
Hi Dunc, I've currently got Merlin ZH827, Sea King (771 SAR Squadron) XV670 on screen, audible and visible, also Harrier ZD437, but unfortunately can't see or hear that one. Regularly get USAF (Reach) and RAF (Ascot?) C17s on screen, shame they don't have full info. and almost nightly 'Seychelles' flights for British military.

Hi John,
just checked the log and found those as well :)
Interesting day so far
-
Living in Rural Lincolnshire, not far from Scampton or Waddington and getting occaisional aircraft from Coningsby I guess about 1/3 to 1/2 my aircraft on live flights are military.
I have had in the last two days Hurricane LF363 and the Dakota (C47) of the Battle of Britain Flight as well as other interesting military types including two Russian Airforce Aircraft.
We recently had the big Antonov in and out of Doncaster RobinHood as well.
Pity we can't track the military stuff better. Interestingly the Red Arrows don't have a signal when they fly and don't appear on the screen or in the log.

Something which has just occurred to me about the milair machines I see on my setup. I routinely see multiple tankers from the US military (KC10 and K35R mainly, four distinct aircraft in the past two days), but much less often any acft that would make use of them. In the same time frame (two days), 3 distinct C17s (all US Mil) and one Canforce machine with no info (C2B00D). I don't even know if C17s are set up for in-air refueling (doubt it).
I should look up C2B00D and also try to find that refueling track map I've seen on the web (maybe at milaircomms, can't recall) and see if I'm (or my box's range is) at the end of a track or something.
-
C-17s and C-5s can be refuelled in-flight. Above the windscreens of these ac you can see the guide lines to help the boom operator guide the boom into the receptacle.
USAF tankers carry out AAR on almost a daily basis with various NATO aircraft around our shores and out in the Atlantic. KC-135R BLUE11 this afternoon came down the East Coast having refuelled two GAF Tornadoes on its way across the pond.

Anyone ever seen any US Army Black Hawk MH-60 helicopters? There are three of them which are stopping over at my local airport (CYBW) on a reported installation flight to Alaska - I only know this because I have taken pics of them and heard from the firefighters at the airfield (colleagues of mine; I'm a firefighter in a nearby rural area). Nothing on my RadarBox, but my location prevents me from seeing anything coming in from north and east of the airport. So I don't know if the Black Hawks are sending ModeS/ADS-B or not.
The tail numbers/CNs I found on the aircraft don't follow the usual "last two digits of year plus four-digit ID" on USAF and other US military craft. They're five digits long, with a common prefix of "24", followed by a three-digit aircraft number. The photos are available on my Flickr page at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jay911/sets/72157623725457653/
Mods, if this should be a topic of its own, apologies for the hijack and please split it off..

Hi Sandy
We also had the Antonov but you will find in time they are not too uncommon up our way. We have actually had the AN225 twice since we started on the RB. You will also find you'll get an Emirates A380 going over you sometimes.
I know its not military but thought you'd like to know.
Claire
-
Hi Claire
Thanks for the info on the Antonov and the A380. I've been looking for a A380 going over, had 4 Emirates flights but all were triple 7s. Quite interesting the amount of military flights logged, unfortunately , I've never been at computer when they were logged to see where they were. Do you get much RAF stuff down your way?
Sandy
-
Hi Sandy
Yes we get a fair few RAF stuff in our 'My Flights' but unfortunately hardly ever one with ADS-B. We have had an American Navy aircraft and a few German air force with ADS-B but no UK stuff with it.
Claire
-
The RAF can probably not afford ADS-B :) (Just Joking) Though you do wonder sometimes when you hear the stories of aircraft that are in service and the spares etc. My Polar Diagram has reached as far south as Kinloss & Lossie and covering Wick so hopefully pick up a few RAF aircraft or other forces.

Didn't get this on my RadarBox, but two Tornados from 12Sqn in Lossiemouth (if my callsign lookup went correctly) came into CYYC the other day. There is a Canadian Forces Base nearby with a detachment called BATUS (British Army Training Unit Suffield - Suffield being the CFB's name) and JACKAL11 is coming to play around in their sandbox for a bit.
JACKAL11 was the call used on the radio. I got some mediocre pics of the aircraft thru a fence at the Shell FBO here in Calgary, but I think the tail IDs were 021 and 099 or 098. EDIT: Going over the pics again, the last digit in the second one is definitely a 9.
The reason I didn't pick them up is that my RB doesn't see anything toward the Calgary airport. I'm about 30nm SW of the airport behind a hill and the supplied antenna, sitting in my computer room window, only sees things SW of me. I plan to try to put a DPD Productions antenna up later on this spring/summer on the roof of my house.
Here's 021.

If you mean details like altitude, squawk and callsign, you will normally only get those (on a military aircraft without ADS-B) if it is being interrogated by a Mode S ground radar - perhaps there is a new one operational in your neck of the woods ?

Either two different aircraft using the same Mode S Flight ID (unlikely, but possible), or an instance of the "hex code confusion" bug.

On the ball again Dave.
-
Either two different aircraft using the same Mode S Flight ID (unlikely, but possible), or an instance of the "hex code confusion" bug.
Hello
I would think" hex code confusion" would be unlikely since it normally only affects aircraft that have one or two bits different (these have 5).
AE05AA- 101011100000010110101010
AE0681- 101011100000011010000001
Also I find a lot of military (and sometimes civilian) callsigns aren't what they should be. Whether it is a typing mistake, a 0 instead of O (loganair are bad for this)or a pilot thinking he is being funny by using something vulgar etc. so I suppose it would be far from impossible to get two blue42s at the same time

A quick question.
There was a VC-10 doing an hour's worth of circuits at Warton this morning. I was at work nearby and took some snaps with my compact camera. My computer wasn't on, so I have no RadarBox record.
Can anyone confirm that it was ZA149, which was around when turned my computer on this afternoon?

Excellent - many thanks, Anorak!
Rod

3F9529/GAF188 ?
-
3F9529/GAF188 ?
That callsign is almost invariably associated with a Challenger on its way across the Pond, usually with a "tactical" Mode S code, as in this case, and therefore very difficult to tie up.

Thanks Dave.

AE12B5 is, as was suggested, a C-130 - specifically MC-130P 65-0994.

Cant get what you are meaning with the Nimrod Anorak?

He`s been on screen since 10.30 and is still there now who or what is he looking for?
-
Vulcan is airborne again. Just passed over Buckingham heading north - on it's way to a few shows today.
-
He`s been on screen since 10.30 and is still there now who or what is he looking for?
Fish, I would say - Considering the area he's been in. :-)
-
If you have him on your screen where do you estimate he is?
This is my polar diagram.
-
Just passed DELBO heading for Bicester. He was out in the Atlantic SW of Ireland.
-
1450 just passed OLNEY. He's squawking 6401 so probably making for Marham.
-
The Vulcan is at 550' over Waddo so into his display routine.
-
Thank you :-)
-
The Nimrod is heading in to Waddo now and the Vulcan is descending into Cottesmore.
-
The Vulcan didn't go to Cottesmore but descended to 5,000' and is just passing WELIN on a track of 211º.
-
Seen yesterday various times in the day
498422 2801 A319 Czech AF
Anybody idea where he was going?
-
He went into Liverpool and departed about 19:00
-
Thanks for that, got him west bound but then he dropped off my screen
-
Popped up on screen now Brazillian AF 707.
-
Caught him on PP departing the South Coast near Poole for ASPEN / BIGNO
Tail marking shows this to be a KC-137.

hello
Sorry to spoil your fun but the US - Air Force F15 showed up in error since that is what was showing at the details page at the bottom of the list but in the log and the database it shows as being various Germany - Air force CL60s.
Andrew
-
Thanks Andrew. It did look odd !!
Another one for the database team to fix.
-
Hello
I dont think it involves us (database team) as this hex had the details of the CL60's of the german air force. The software though for some reason has decided to display it as an F-15. So I think Airnav will have to look not us.

Just landed at Waddington, Showing up as Saudi Airforce, picture shows a 707, but info gives it as Hawker Beechcraft belonging to Isreal Air Force.
Something very wrong, and how ironic it lists two countries that would certainly not share aircraft.
-
I presume you are mentioning Saudi AF C-130 475, which I am aware has recentlu landedat Waddington It is in the databse correctly as follows
7102E2, 475, c/n 5253, Lockheed C-130H Hercules, Saudia Arabia - Air Force. The usual blocker is in place for the photo, but I would presume that as it cant find a photo it wil go to your photo folder and take the first one with a serial of 475.
I presume you are using the old database as you are getting outdated/corrupted info. If you deleted all reference to this and click on it next time yoiu see it you will force and update of the data held on the server. Even better download and install the latest Navdata update from April and that will clear out all the out of data info.

HI not sure Phil he is working with a Tornado outbound from Warton. Comms clear on 370.750. Tornado just advised 13.34 they have 30 mins testing time left. Pilot of Tanker has a USA accent.
-
EC-335 and EC-336 are both Airbus test registrations so the c/n will determine the actual aircraft and who its ultimate user will be.
ZZ330 is c/n 1033 and I am unaware what its hex will be using that registration

There's also another EH101, ZH838, somewhere around here that ANRB is picking up.
It military exercise time in the Minch so there will be a few interesting things coming up on the screen this week. Just a shame there's no positional info.

I dont think they will be giving away too much info there Rod. In theatre would be different but then they would switch off their transponder.

Not sure it is a good idea to switch off the IFF in theater. Partriot has already shot down a Tornado.

Hi!
have one question:
do the radarbox network filter military aircraft?
so strange, i was get many alerts, and immediately "alerted" aircraft drop from network, i can not see him.
more than once, i have this result
only C130 and K35 i can see
-
IC7K
Aircraft using Mode S will be detected by your box and will be listed. No position data. Network aircraft not listed. There are a few mil aircraft with ADS-B. Reto fitting an ADS-B box is easy but linking it to the nav system more of a problem.

The radarbox network only ADS-B equipped aircraft (those that broadcast position information and display on the map). Your local flights will show all all mode S equipped aircraft picked up, including those that are not ADS-B equipped and consequently do not have the globe symbol on the list and do not display on the map.
The vast majority of Mil aircraft are non ADS-B. A few P-8, E-6, German Air Force Challengers etc being the few exceptions. Once a non-ADS-B aircraft moves out of coverage of your local aerial, it will not transfer to network coverage.

Hi Syd,
I picked up AE094F 80-1066 and also AE094B 68-10336 up here loosing them at 1145 and 1150 respectively.
When they came down over here on Tuesday I think it was they came down over the Hebrides and the west coast of Scotland, over Prestwick and continued down to Fairford. Given that I picked them up again I would think the went them same way in reverse to their Oceanic Entry point.

“…and flew in one,”
So did I. Cadged a lift from RAF Bishops Court To RAF Ouston in November 1959.
First time I’d been in a ‘plane so I remember it well and can still clearly picture how austere it was with canvas seats, bare struts and a curtain separating the cabin from the cockpit.
Spent quite a bit of time on the net trying to identify which one it was as it would complete my ‘flights log’

Currently have an RAF Hawk pilot (registration XX339) flying about over here with delusions of grandeur using flight ID of 'MIG 56' !
-
Interesting. When I was on 100 Sqn we would simulate a defecting aircraft. We would put a day-glow star in front of the roundel. When landing at the station being Tacevaled it was the job of the fire section to stop the aircraft getting off the runway.

Two RAF Hawks currently flying today at a low level of FL130. XX339 flight ID MIG 56 of yesterday but today has XX285 with a flight ID of MIG 55 as company.
-
Those Hawks are TLP 2013-5 course, participants in Albacete (Spain), as they are agressors they use the code MIG 55 and 56.
-
They must be making it difficult for the 'opposition' today as both are back in the air with the same flight ID of MIG 56 !

Shawn,
OTIS 51 a C130 of USMC is a frequent sighting over these parts. Today's aircraft was 165810 a KC-130J with c/n 5509. If you are over here on holiday, keep a lookout at the same time every day they are usually daily and not necessarily the same aircraft.

Ian,
Many thanks.
I may give you a shout if I can't identify any other sightings as am here for another week.

Shawn,
Ian was able to identify It because it was being shown by the box. If he can identify it you should be able to. Is your Navdata up to date.
Also any unknowns can be posted with their hex codes and any further relevant info such as the flight ID showing, in the database update thread and I will try to identify them for inclusion in the Navdata.

Two US Marine Corps C-9Bs. Used by the USN/USMC as a troop/vip transporter. Caught them myself, the db has them as 161529 and 161530. The USN/USMC C-9s have been regular visitors to europe have seen them regulalry but getting rarer now that they are being replaced by the 737/C-40.
Pure speculation but possibly supporting the USMC CV-22 deployment in Spain.

Over 2 hours ago there was a loud explosion here in Yorkshire which was followed by 2 bangs a few seconds later. The BBC have confirmed that it was a sonic boom from an RAF Typhoon.
http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-36188979 (http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-36188979)
At the same time as the bangs, my Radarbox had picked up the following aircraft.
* 43C492 Q0000001 ZJ912 EUFI UK - Air Force 2016/05/02 20:49:03
I have seen it rumoured that the "unresponsive aircraft" belonged to Air France. I also picked up this.

Is there any relevance to the callsign LOBO01 on a USN C-9B please?
Dave.
-
I don't know the relevance Dave but it has been used by them for years.
Alan
-
Dave,
According to the USAF call sign list, LOBO is used for aircraft relating to 4 different bases :

Hi all,
LOBO01 161530 C-9B did climb from 22500 to 30000 feet close to the south German/Swiss Border today. It is still active with VMR-1

I was just wondering if LOBO "01" was the head honcho or similar.

Hi all,
Mode S code 3EB21E. Callsign BRONCO1 received at 2500 feet final altitude (is normally the lowest receiving altitude for a landing aircraft on my Radar for Zurich IAP when aircraft approachs from the nord. Aircraft was recorded at 10.17 AM today. Does someone know what type of aircraft that was?
Rolf
-
Morning Rolf,
According to military Mode S, 3EB21E relates to a German AF EF-2000 with a serial number of '3061'.
Ian
-
Thank you Ian.
I did not know that there are mil mode s code homepages existing.
Rolf
-
Ian/Andrew.
I would not go with that tie up as EUFI's are TACTICAL. The tie up may well have been relevant for one particular day/flight but they changes. Also the code is used around the fleet so may not even have been used on that type on this particular flight. Some kind user may however be able to advise what squadron uses BRONCO as a call sign and that could help determine the details
Alan
-
Afternoon Alan,
Glad to see you made it back safely. For the information of Rolf and others, military call signs are available here. It shows 'Bronco' as the call sign for the 31st FW based at Aviano in Italy with F-16's. Having said that, I am sure I have had that call sign also used by C130's of the USMC. So, who knows!
http://members.optusnet.com.au/extremescan/usaf%20callsigns/uscallsigns.html
Ian
-
Cheers Ian, got here at 0200 due to accidents no the motorway north of Oxford, lovely way to while away an hour or so, not!!
Alan
-
Doesn't help to tie up the 3EB21E code, but as Ian says the BRONCO callsign is used by USMC C130s, specifically the KC130Js" of VMGR252, USMC, at Cherry Point, N. Carolina
-
And as if to confirm that, KC-130J 169225 c/n 5792 of USMC has just come over with flight id 'BRNCO95'.

Graham

Hi Graham,
Becoming increasingly more common for USAF aircraft . I have currently RCH1171 a C-17 08-8202 on with full ADSB tracking SE Spain over the Med. Also noted C5's and C130's with full ADSB. Guess they are all starting to comply with future requirements of using ADSB if so equipped.
Ian

They have started to fit RAF C17s now, have picked up 2 so far.

Have Apollo callsigns operating over North Devon at this time, any ideas please?

Hi all,
US Military UAV over Switzerland or close to the border. Mode S code is AE27A7 at 52 000 ft. Callsign "UAVGH000". Received signal between 7.38 and 7.58 local time. Can someone help me out with the Type of UAV? Could not enter the "live-military-mode-s public pages" to check for the type.
Thank you
Rolf
-
Rolf,
Tried to access the public page of Military Mode S today in order to check but getting up that it is an 'unsecure site' and to immediately close down which is presumably what you are getting. Very strange as it used to be ok to access.

anyone know the hexcode for [164404] plz.
andy
-
afternoon Terry
tyvm for the update info
andy
-
A quick look at your Navdata would have given the correct tie up. Its a miscode not a tac code.
Alan
-
what navdata???
well the code is incorrect so it dont matter if its dam miss code or an tac code its fake.
andy
-
I am presuming that you are still using your receiver when you picked it up. In that case the Navdata holds the info on the aircraft to decode them and AE0416/164404 is in the aircraft table. If you are not using your receiver forget it. You asked for the info and I was advising where you can find it
Alan
-
i dont know where the navdata is alan would not know where to look alan
and if it was useing its right bloody code it would not be an dam prob would it alan as as it was NOT useing its hex code as allocated to the airframe at the time it was useing an miss code

C-17 was MAB Flight LHOB247. C-130 was MAH Flight DEMA123.
Both landed at Yeovilton at about 1630L
-
The C17 seemed to be in formation with the "Pink" Skyvan at about 6000 ft.
-
The Skyvan is doing photo sorties, there will probably be more today.

Hi,
On Saturday (07/09/19) afternoon, I was pleasantly surprised to see 2 x H64 Apache helicopters on my Radarbox24, not an aircraft I see much of in Scotland.
I was even more surprised when I saw them going over my house !
Steven.
VIPER 1 = 43C26A ZJ213 H64 Apache.
VIPER 2 = 43C276 ZJ225 H64 Apache.

Indeed. Hopefully it will be seen at RIAT this year... Assuming the UK hasn't shut down by then!!!
-
just checked been a lot of discussion about this on Air Britain forums all to do with mis id'ing serial number with fuselage c/n's. Apparently painted up as XE688 in error. Its former UK mil serial was XE704. 688 was written off in '57.
Not sure what it is officially registered as......

From Scramble
This week, Hawker Hunter Aviation Ltd. (HHAL) at RAF Scampton (UK) performed the first trials of Hunter T72 XE688’s Rolls Royce Avon engine. The two-seater is a former chaseplane which was used by Brazilian manufacturer Embraer as PP-XHH. It still has the beautiful livery from those days. XE688 arrived at Scampton in 2018 (*).
The aircraft’s history is somewhat obscure: XE688 was actually built as a model F4 with serial XE704 (construction number HABL-003035). For unknown reasons, the factory plate located in the nose gear bay is that of ex Fuerza Aerea de Chile (Chile Air Force) serial (J-)736, which had construction number HABL-003031. This Chilean aircraft was also originally built as a model F4 and allocated the serial XE688.
However, records show XE688 was written off in 1957 and the factory plate has found its way on to this aircraft. It is thought that the front fuselage/nose section of the original XE688 was used to convert the aircraft into a T72 and the data plate was never changed.
So its a hybrid converted from parts of two separate aircraft, do you go with the c/n of the front or the c/n of the rear section. Personally I will just go with whats on the aircraft
