He's just timed out from me here in Lancashire - seen him for the last 3 days.

Just out of interest, have we been seeing the almost omni-present "snooping" Islanders recently? Just wondering if there's possibly a connection...

H Terry, I don't have network and too far from my location for MyFlights.

I'm tracking it in PlanePlotter multilateration.

Update - whilst I wasn't looking he changed squawk to 7030 and last recorded alt was 2075' so I guess he has landed at Aldergrove.

Hi I've asked on another site if anyone can throw some light on this.

Hi With thanks to Razor from another site the following.

When using RRR617-619 its usually Special Forces related (or has been in lots of previous SF exercises).
RRR673 callsign is also a tactical callsign (670-673).

Interesting.
