> So those tracking websites must miss some of the happenings! Don't confuse Webtrak, which is fed by "proper" radar, the kind that whizzes round on a tower and alerts the RAF to Russian bombers, with tracking websites like FlightRadar24 that despite their name are driven by transponder data which not all aircraft transmit. Quite a few aircraft use Heathrow and yet don't appear on FR24, for example many business aircraft and the DHL freighter flights, but I can't remember the last time I saw something overhead on the approach and then found it wasn't on Webtrak. |
