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.

@CormoranStrike

And, my fellow geeks, you may like the Ship Finder app.
Indeed. I tracked my new car all the way from Korea on that!

@Sofuckingsad

Who's in the B737 that's just passed Hythe? NA -NA but took off from Rome.
Maybe Prince Charles? Likely heading back too

@Mumzoo5070

CormoranStrike I'm wondering if the Edinburgh to Edinburgh is an aurora spotting plane as it's heading North?
Interesting - looking at its history it did a Glasgow to Glasgow last night on a very Aurora Borealis themed route

Loving this thread. And there was me thinking I was the only person obsessed with flightradar.

Anyone else who does this regularly? Anyone on here 'in the industry' as such?

Quite possibly Biden. Or one of the planes accompanying Air Force 1

Yep, that's what it is

Williamshatnershorses · 31/10/2021 22:27

DRC001 - Democratic Republic of Congo perhaps?

It's UA3

I’m under the flight path for two different airports and love Flightradar, so I’m pretty annoyed that I’m so late to this! Just in time to see Boris come in though (but would prefer Obama) Blush

meltingappointment · 31/10/2021 22:28

E.

Sorry it's the same aircraft mentioned upthread and it's a United Arab Emirates

I really have found me people. I love having a good nose around on flight radar, and it’s even more exciting when there is a big event like COP26.

Is ZT647 Charlie?

CormoranStrike · 31/10/2021 22:30

This is anchored slap bang in the middle of the Clyde west of Glasgow tonight

Boris
GoldenElephant · 31/10/2021 22:32

Ah late night for Boris. Does anyone know how Greta arrived?!

YellowandGreenToBeSeen · 31/10/2021 22:32

@GoldenElephant

Johnson seems to be the consensus. Charlie’s could probably fly up and out tomorrow.
IvySquirrel · 31/10/2021 22:33

Looks like Boris has landed

meltingappointment · 31/10/2021 22:35

Air Force 1 may not be airborne so the eta of 00:30 is looking incorrect.

Yellow85 · 31/10/2021 22:35

Train into Central yesterday
Sofuckingsad · 31/10/2021 22:35

Williamshatner - it's just passed huntingdon.

@GoldenElephant she got the train up from London to Glasgow last night. What a commotion at the station!
ReginaaPhalange · 31/10/2021 22:36

@meltingappointment you'll never see Air Force one on any tracking services. They also use decoy planes too
