There is indeed quite patchy cover up there, especially when they go over the sea, and if the Typhoons are using MLAT which they probably do it...
They come from RAF Coningsby. If you zoom in you can see the sheds where they kept, south of the runway. Even more interesting if you get a google...
It is still a big improvement on no sat view!
I missed them on the map, but all four UK-based B52s have now finished their UK stint based at RAF Fairford and have headed home....
We have four currently based here in the UK. Two go out most days together; they either head North over the North Sea and disappear from the map...
In the light of further observation I would like to add to some of the earlier posts about the drones which are now regularly flying over the...
That's not inconsistent with what I get. 4000ft to 2000ft makes a big difference, and below 2000ft the range continues to drop off quickly. It...
The problem is that each MLAT aircraft needs at least four feeders to receive its Mode S packets in order for ADSBX to calculate its position. So...
Hi, just wondering if the mlat map url can take any parameters to help open it on the area I am interested in (me!) instead of the whole world? I...

Something up in the UK yesterday... on the mlat map I had a single yellow line to someone miles away that I don't normally have a line to, and...
Just to finish the story, the Coast Guard subsequently did a scan of the area before going home: [ATTACH]

Well there is indeed a third one out now: https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=425179. ADS-B but no type or squawk info.
That's either the other one I saw yesterday that disappeared from the map too quickly, or there are more than two of these things flying around!...
Two drones over the English Channel today near the England/France sea border.. Here's one of them: https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=407b0a....
Click on the light blue "layers" icon on the map and choose "UK A2A Refueling" - you will see why they are there. There are several air-to-air...
That area over the sea north of East Anglia,where all the squiggly lines are, is an Air-To-Air refuelling area - if you turn on "UK A2A...
A recent non-technical BBC news item which I can't find at the moment mentioned that Russian fighter jets were flying near UK airspace with their...
I don't know if it's "recommended" or not, but I got one of these for using with a Pi4B: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07TZG3KMQ. That was...
