Here's some more I took today, at the bottom of this link.
Airnav has renewed my interest in photography :-)
No military though :-(

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)!

Hi just in from having played a bowls match after work.

I noted on the box that our old friend 000000 and 000001 were up and about today.

I have also recorded 43C304 a Royal Navy Merlin EH-101 HM1 ZH824 who had flight number 000000!!

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 Squad, I know you've described your set-up on "freq db" site, but I think it would be very helpful if you could copy it in here.    As I've said before "SUPERB shots", but how the the devil do you arrange the clear skies.......................?
