    Yeah, what is the reason for that? It doesn't seem to happen to other types but always to the Avros

    As it turns out I was unknowingly following this on Fr last night. Unable to sleep, instead of counting sheep, flicked on Fr to see what was out there - that was about 3.15 am. I noticed the plane in red - the photo showed it with an exclamation mark. didn't know what that meant, so looked it up - turns out it was squaking 7700 which I now know is an emergency. The flight was bound for Rome, but was still at 36,000 feet as it passed over. Flight continued up through Northern Italy until I went back to bed - now know what the emergency was. Hope everyone is ok - it's been ages since a hijack over Europe, no?

    Does anyone ever notice with CityJet on FR24 that their track is never "aligned" properly?

    Probably a misalignment between FR24 and google maps. At SNN for example it creates the impression that everything lands to the right of the airport and overrun into the shannon estuary :eek:

    Any more info? Did you see it land or anything? Maybe a silly hunch but could be an airport ground vehicle of some sort - seen that at LGW before.

    Two Falcon 20's in a firefight?

    Seems their FL, headlings and tracks are similar but slighlty different. Squawks are 5112 & 5113.

    FL are 1000ft apart, and too high for a photo shoot.
