Now this is funny, AF1 on the way home despite motorcade getting lost on the way to the airport. Times listed are GMT.

Both AF1 and DIAPER46 airborne and plotting. Amusingly on some co-operative tracking sites SAM46 has been going backwards and forwards between Cumbria and Islay repeatedly....someone hasn't set their location correctly on their feeding software!

...back to more interesting things though......

That is crazy.. Usually the local police lead the way on these convoys.. Saw vid when on way in from Glasgow airport
and was local police on motorcycles leading the way.. Someone in local police is gonna catch Hell.. Will be transferred to foot patrol of

Yeah heard Cat meows last week etc.. CB Ch19 of the Skies
123.450 used to be chat channel but 121.500 getting more traffic mainly with short stupid stuff.
121.500 seems to be pilots releasing their frustrations.. Been rough the last 1.5 years.
No worries.

No. Where are you located? I seldom hear anything on that channel.

A lot more of it over the ocean routes to the Caribbean - just airline pilots with nothing to do thanks to cockpit modernization.

Hear it every day here along the coast.

Not my thing but quite a few C-32/C-40 aircraft and all the E-6s use two ICAO addresses - one for INMARSAT traffic and one for ADS-B/VHF

....so, in the case of the two links you included what is the actual source of the data?

(and one of those silly things that human brains evolved to notice ...this post is number 1333 of mine and it's replying to number 1333 of yours!)

First time I've noticed it with the C-32As. SAM 46 C-32A 09-0016 that was following just used one code AE4AE8. I'll keep an eye on it.

I'm hearing the same "childish" comms here in Reading, PA also.

I think it’s something about 09-0017. They used hex codes AE5625, AE5742, AE580F at different times throughout the trip.
