Not on Flight Radar

[anonymous-user]

Around York area this morning someone reported some heavy duty military aircraft that was not on FR.

Any ideas?

Lots of military aircraft aren’t on Flightradar, I presume the operational types not being flown IFR (such as the queens c17 yesterday). I’ve noticed most of the current operational types that fly over me (military helicopters mainly) never show up on FR.

There's been a heavy transporter out Brize Norton doing bumps at Teesside for the last hour

FR24 are focusing on airliners and are asking feeders to disconnect MLAT so you'll see a big reduction in coverage, particularly for low level GA and rotary. Mil is also being affected. Use ADSB Exchange instead.

A400 ZM418 was up there between 11.30 and 12.20 doing multiple circuits over Stockton and a couple of approaches to the airport before going back to Brize.
