From the plot in MyCircles (admittedly not very accurate) it looks as if the Saudi might have gone in to Northolt or Heathrow. I lost him at 4,000 ft.

Another interesting one - Gulfstream 550 N676RW at 26,725. Squawking 7630 but transmitting no other info. Owner is shown in airframes.org as TVPX / Stallion Acquisitions. USA reg info says 'Aircraft Type - Government'. Suspiciously like one of those MIB types.

Another interesting one; 484607, Dornier 228-212, PH-CGN  c/s NCG01 currently flying along the Dutch coast at 955 ft.

Just checked his squawk, it's 5177 which is the Control and Reporting Centre at RAF Boulmer.

I hope this isn't a stupid question, I noted the Mode S code ADFEB8 (todays date) is this a unique code created for this flight/day or remains the same and is just a coincidence?

John - well spotted!

I'm sure it's pure coincidence - I guess it must have had that Mode S code since it was delivered - unfortunately for the theory, in May 1998 (according to Airframes.org)

Perhaps, like the British Queen, it has, as well as its delivery date, an official birthday, and today's the day!
