Hi guys, can we keep any postings about stuff noticed on FR24, PlanePlotter and other such resources in this thread? I'll make it a sticky so it's easy to find.
Thanks

A couple of Cobham Falcons showing off the East Coast this evening and a Shadow near Darlington also. Anyone know if there is a particular exercise on or just general training? Thanks

Currently over Norway a C-130 which left Brize earlier today. I presume fetching the Merlin detachment back from Bardufoss?

Had been noticing a few Hawk T1's and SNAKE48 dodging about in the skies recently on FR24. Nice to see!
