Any flightradar 24 geeks?

Some very interesting traffic heading to Scotland for Cop 26.

PRES101 from Aerolinas Argentinas appears to be about to land at Prestwick.

Private jet LNX29KG also en route to Glasgow.

@notimagain riding on their airstream!

Who’s SAM46? Is that airforce 1?

This.

No, it's the 757 accompanying AF1

Love the military freedar one. There are 2 French Air Force, a German Air Force and an Italian Air Force aircraft around Glasgow just now.

SAM 46 is a C-32 ( basically as meltingappointment says it’s a modified 757)….it’s part of the fleet of aircraft available to POTUS, The VP and others.

If the VP is onboard it’s callsign is AF2, if POTUS is on board it’s of course AF1….if it’s not in a serious VIP role it’ll wear another callsign, as it is today.

Looks like it’s being used as a backup to the 747, and I guess might also be carrying some of the government entourage.

Edinburgh airspace lovely and clear...

They’re Hawks maneuvering as lowish level, as a pp said it looks like training, nothing to do with COP or AF1.

I can’t see sam46: I’m a newbie at this and need help! I know the POTUS flies with 5 planes, AF1 and decoy AF1 and then one for the beast and another for decoy beast and then one for his helicopter!

I have my newly downloaded military one and flight 24 do I need anything different?

This is not AF1. But it’s illustrated that in not in a good spot

Found Sam46

I can't find PIRATE, any clues re location please

You are confusing AF1 with Marine1.

There is no decoy AF1 up there.

Possibly landed

My parents are under the Edinburgh flight path so my dad’s keeping an eye out for AF1.

Won't be long now...

No, he just passed Hawick

PIRATE has landed.

they were up over the northern part of the Vale of York (for many years RAF training territory) at medium/lowish altitude

FWIW another fairly comprehensive tracking site here:

globe.adsbexchange.com/

Maybe not as user friendly and certainly a bit more techie than some sites but it’s very comprehensive.

Interesting flight path! Now looks to be heading to Edinburgh - extra Biden security?

I am ready. I have picked my spot!

Looks like both AF1 and SAM46 heading to Edinburgh?

@Williamshatnershorses

I am ready. I have picked my spot!

Thanks for taking one for the team for those of us many miles away!

AF1 over my house!!
