Cool things seen on FlightRadar

If you use an ADSB receiver you can often see that there are also aircraft squawking ADSB but not on the web map. This is usually because they aren't sending position data (so can't be plotted) but nevertheless they show an ID when received locally.

Blenheim just flew over Farnborough heading north - presumably going back to Duxford after the Goodwood Revivalk.

Did not show up but this morning a single red arrow went over my house fast and low in mk then about 30 minutes later heading north.

Oh that must have been what I heard. I'm in MK also. Was certainly fast and low.

Lots of Hercules on the move today. There was a third with the pair heading east but it seems to have disappeared.

Cool things NOT seen on FR, but anyone else noticed some activity around City Airport? Around 10 or so drones (?) flying in circles on either side of the landing approach? Unfortunately some pics I managed to snap don't show much more than navigation lights...

I didn’t know they had the range? Did he do the Reykjavik stop? Would have thought a man with his money would fly in something a tad more luxurious.

Was it the short takeoff roll or the left turn after takeoff?

Not a chance so wont have been that then! I just know he used a 560 in the past out of EGCC but now I think about it must have been something much bigger.

Well it took off from the last intersection in the wrong direction. Surprisingly it didn’t take anything out with it.

Looks like ADSB exchange have upgraded their mapping.

“takeoff distance available from B14 on runway 12 was 1020 meters/3350 feet instead of 3010 meters/9900 feet in direction of runway 30”

Pretty bad mistake.

IIRC there was an airport in the US that was notorious for this, there were several over runs there. They finally sorted it after an aircraft (ATR?) went off the end of the runway and killed everyone. That night they also had limited lighting so the aircraft managed to make it to the wrong runway and ran out of room.
