I only tend to see them on ADSB, same with Police choppers.
They often seem to fly lower than most heli's (Air Ambulances that is) and often in more rural areas so are less likely to pop up on FR24 and ADSBexchange. Some of them show up consistently like the Kent or London ones where as the Wilts B429 seems to not show up at all or as blocked on FR24.C70R said:

Do air ambulances not show on here? Flew over me twice the other day and I couldn't find them.

It may have been the Red Arrows leaving Hurn? Not sure, but they were definitely here last night, as I saw them drawing (what I presumed was their Jon Egging memorial heart) in the sky as I drove down the A31 over the New Forest.

Probably the Arrows, they took off westerly, turned south around the Isle of Wight & are displaying at the FoS as I type.Penrhyn said:
Presume in their way back from the Weston display. I watched from the church field in uphill. Somehow -and I know it’s sacrilege to say so - but somehow the display with ‘ only’ seven aircraft seems somewhat …underwhelming?
Anyone else think the same?

I've spent the past 40 odd years being underwhelmed by the Scarlet Sparrows..... Somehow -and I know it’s sacrilege to say so - but somehow the display with ‘ only’ seven aircraft seems somewhat …underwhelming?

Most of the police, ambulance and SAR are blocked on FR24. Use ADSBx for them, but be aware many of them are MLAT and at low level so you'll get jaggy track lines.
Best way to track SAR is on AIS, the operator requested they be blocked despite being told by the end users that they’re visible on other platforms Gassing Station | Boats, Planes & Trains | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
