DAL3 flying an unusual heading & speed of just 170 knots off the west coast there. FR error I wonder?

The Delta 767-300s don't have ADS-B and apparently Delta aren't hurrying to install it before the 2020 deadline, so their plots are are MLAT-derived and can be a bit erratic.

Their -400s have ADS-B, as do their A330s of both flavours.

Some of the 767s do have it but no pattern etc to what ones they are

Beech 350 meandering over NI at high alt, came in from Keflavik and appears to be descending now to 26,000 ft heading south.

Appearing and disappearing on FR24 so here's the other one:

Now south of the border possibly for Dublin or Isle of Man.

Update: yet another course change and now appears to be heading for Shannon

Nice tailwinds today for Eastbound aircraft. I'm heading to Manchester in the morning so hopefully it'll be the same- a quick spin in an ATR would be a novelty :pac:

Aer Lingus Regional (ops. Stobart Air)

Squawk 6317

Couldn't really make out the reason, didn't sound serious.

ETA: Down safe.

Is it normal for a flight from London to Derry to cruise at 38,000 feet?

No expert but could be to do with the good winds mentioned today?

From the logs RYR611 seems to hit that once a week or so, more often at 34 or 36.

The 737NGs seem to climb well in general

No reason not to go up as high as possible, we were at FL310 over Dover in a 757 on one occasion on a flight from Brussels to Heathrow, (clear day, the view was amazing) and at 38, it's out of the way of the heavier long hauls that need more time to get to their Trans Atlantic cruise levels. FL380 also means avoiding a lot of traffic in the Manchester area at all levels.

Anyone know how to generate a unique link to 'blocked' aircraft?

This should be Mexican-registered Gulfstream V XA-FEM over NI at present but it's just the pick-a-GLF5 random link

Just before that, two 'Mid East Jet' aircraft left SNN within a couple of minutes of each other, a 767 heading west and a 757 heading east.

Gulfstream 3 N163PA on APP to DUB now.

I believe this is the jet that transported the Ebola Virus patient to the US. Was in DUB last week too.

Interesting to see how few airlines are now routing over Iraq and Syria, about a week ago at this time of the night there was always a line of them routing through the right side of Iraq, now they only flights that i can see are operating to/from Iraq

What's going on here? Croatia Airlines apparently for DUB but heading towards Knock?

Ah this could be flight training I think, seems to be military or similar rather than pax flight.
