A83E84 showed up yesterday.  Comes out as N630J, which is a Jabiru J250-SP (an ultralight).  Reported altitude of 34,000ft....therefore must be a miscode.

Steve - When you say logged, I presume you mean in your notebook, rather than on your radarbox.  G-BTJL and G-TLET are in the DB.

The others that you mention are not.  However they also have not been detected on any networking Radarbox over the last 9 months and have not been included on any log ever uploaded to the Mode S Yahoo Group.

Therefore, unless you say you logged them on your Radarbox (in which case you are the first ever to do so), I think it is safe to say none of the others are Mode S equipped.

There are those who have sharply critisied us in the past in other fora who say by server-scrapes of the CAA & FAA etc websites and registers we could balloon our DB with 7-800K more codes. They would have us upload every single code allocated by those authorities regardless of the status of the aircraft (let alone the transponder it may be carrying).  In that way you would get added to your Navdata tens of thousands of non-Mode S equipped aircraft which are basically useless for our hobby.  Of those server-scraped records probably over 300K would never ever be mode S equipped and probably 10K would also be permanently grounded (hangar queens, partially dismantled fire trainers, unairworthy museum aircraft etc), so what is the point of that!!

All that does is increase disk space used by the Navdata, which on some machines could slow performance.  They would be choking the DB and changes would still have to be administered by us updaters for these near-useless codes. This could detract us small band of volunteers from doing the already large administrative task of administering the 100K+ valid mode S codes that are in the DB and picked up by Radarbox users worldwide. 

Our method is to keep our DB to those valid Mode S equipped aircraft, which users worldwide are picking up on their boxes.  This makes our task of administering changes to those valid codes easier.  If those aircraft you saw based at Shoreham do ever get the Mode S box slotted onboard, they will immediately be picked up by many users across the south coast, and we will endeavour to add them into the DB as quickly as possible after their first Mode S flight.

Users are now only getting a handful of blanks a day in their MyLogs (in the ones and twos for new aircraft in the most case) and where positively tied up, they are quickly added to the DB when reported via the various fora.  So users can quickly get updates to their MyLogs as aircraft are tied-up.  I have picked up 11,000 different aircraft on my box since the start of this year alone, and of those I have one not tied-up blank (which I suspect may be spurious) and another eight (mostly German GA) where I don't have an owner.  With only 0.0001% of my MyLog not sorted, Our system must be working :)

Hope this helps

Morning, due to the "hard" work of the past year and the so called summer weather it's only a short list from yesterday:

3C1641 was D-AXLC an A320-214 (CN 1564) with several operators. Don't know whether it's again this Airframe or a another/new one or if it's just back in business.

3D3634 D-ESTW was a Rockwell Commander 114 in 2000. Don't know whether it's still one or not.

3FEC91 D-MQCT FDCT Flight Design CT-SW LSV Hohenasperg (airframes / confirmed by visiting their website)

3FEEF0 D-MALJ MD3R GRYF Airplanes MD-3 Rider Private(Flyitalia bankrupt) (Picture from May this year on Flugzeugbilder.de)

451F0C LZ-LDG MD83 McDonnell Douglas MD-83 Bulgarian Air Charter 53149 (airframes)

471EA0 (Hungary / WZZ2JQ flight id / WZZ: Wizz Air) ferry/delivery flight I guess.

48B241 (Poland)

4CA6A2 (Ireland)

514023 (Georgia)

A4F2EA (USA / Address bound to N418LZ according to FAA-registry)

That's all from Saturday.
