Possibly Kaliningrad?

It’s nearly dodging territorial airspace.

You were correct. Landing in Kaliningrad now.

I did manage to fit a good typo in, neatly that was supposed to say. There was a civil/commercial flight doing the same thing behind.

[Penrhyn]

The Russians are no doubt taking stores for the TOP SECRET missile batteries they have there.

[rallye101]

Bufs are back...

[TCEvo]

Unusual one for me - French Air Force CASA transport's just gone overhead.

[The Brummie]

A pair of B52’s & a pair of KC135 tankers over Poland.




The B52’s were over the north of Denmark earlier.

Literally all over!

[Penrhyn]

2 x B52s , one aircraft has switched it’s transponder off. Flying into Romania, that will make the Russians jumpy!!

I saw some info on the new B52 engines the other day, look pretty cool. I believe that they are using biz jet engines twinned up like the current ones. Shows how much technology has advanced I guess.

Yeah the Rolls Royce engines are a pretty old design too.

Hearing this overhead quite frequently on its laps…

[ArsE82]

Just had a LHR-MAN go-around (BA).

Quite a few circling LBA too.

Windy out there!

An Air greenland flight has just done a low pass over Nuuk and now looks to be circling back. Hasn't squawked though

Off to be scrapped I would have thought

[RacingPete]

Obviously not unusual to meet the 'cool' title of the thread, but just watching the golf at TPC Shawgrass and hear some fighter jet fly overhead so went on ADSB to see what it was...

Over 12 hrs in the air now

[BlindedByTheLights]

N19951 Houston to Sydney has been in the air for 15 hours with an hour to go, incredible really!

Not for me ha ha!

The longest flight in the world is Singapore Airlines between Singapore and Newark at just over 18 hours!

14 Squadron Shadow flying circles at 20k feet above Episkopi. Saturday night at 10pm local time. Last night there was a C-130J flying just south of Limassol. Entertainment in the Mess must be poor.

[Mr Penguin]

Someone is flying an SR22 from Narsarsuaq (Greenland) towards Iceland.
He started in Knoxville Tennessee, then went to Bangor, Maine; then Newfoundland; then Greenland. Looks like a cool trip.
