Any idea what type aircraft these are?

They just use letters. I just heard HBJJG. He used the phonetics for the letters. Even sounded like he could have been swiss, hence the HB prefix?

That's the registration being read over the radio, and HB is the registration prefix of Switzerland as you guessed. HB-JJG appears to be a 767-300 recently acquired by Privatair, so I don't know why he would be going by that instead of his Privatair call sign.

Here's the plane when it was recently flying for KLM:

ok... thanks all.... is there another website besides www.fboweb.com that allows one to track flights OUTSIDE of US airspace?

You honestly believe FBOWeb tracks flights outside the US? Read carefully, and you will see that all of their data comes from the FAA, just like FlightAware and others, and their data is no more or less accurate than theirs.

The lack of tracking outside the US is not due to US sites not willing to track them, but due to foreign governments unwilling to release their flight tracking information to the public.

I worded my sentence wrong. I know fboweb.com doesnt show tracking outside US airspace. I just thought there might be one where I could track a flight all the way to its destination.

Unless some new way to obtain the data comes out, no.

Do a search for JACARS. You can at least see some overseas flights some of the time.
