Flightradar24 Thread

DieselPowered · 2013-09-29 23:15:28

I can't see a thread for all things Flightradar 24 related. Can be used for unusual observations through Irish Airspace. Spotted this Pakistan Air Force Gulfstream G-450 Reg J-756 just after passing overhead. Looks like it ended up in RAF Brize Norton.

You'll probably find it's just the pilots positioning the aircraft and he himself will fly by jet and link up with his heli and be choppered around from stud to race course to hotel etc. when you have money you can do these things.

very expensive Taxi!

i would imagine he is in it himself, he is rich, but not that rich that he can pay 1000s for a chopper to fly to france just to fly him around the place.

he is prob heading on holidays i reckon.

A/W also have a factory on the Italian/France border so maybe its going there for maintenance.

Oh he has the money alright.

But

It's currently over Clermont tracking south easterly so it might indeed be going back to AW for problems to be fixed bit like a new car getting checked under warranty.

He's worth €4 billion and has just bought this http://www.evoke.ie/plenty-of-horsepower-jp-mcmanus-spends-e55m-on-top-of-the-range-gulfstream-plane/

you could be right about a positioning flight so then if he already has the jet in operation.

seems a long way to go to when he could also rent one though suppose if you buy a chopper, you'd want to use it.

something tell me however he is on his way to Cannes/Monaco or nice and he is onboard...

Id only disagree on the last bit, it I had that much money I wouldn't sit on my pokey chopper for that long. Time is money and all that. Either way, it would be great to have those hard choices to make, take the heli or take the jet!!!

ETA: Oh actually now I've got some in UK, and some across world - 14 aircraft in total. Hoping it isn't accurate!
