Zoom-in, click on a yellow`plane and you`ll see it`s squalk ID and a track of it`s route from airport of origin.

I watched an A320 fly over here today at low-level/slow speed (very unusual for a commercial airliner to be here in Snowdonia) and using the flight tracker `found it`s origin was Kansas City......after I saw it, I tracked it landing at Hawarden (Nr. Chester).
A very odd route; I`m guessing it was repatriating Airbus staff caught up in the trans-Atlantic backlogs.

Fascinating! :y :y :y :y

Flight CJA9800 is very interesting.  As I write this it is off the East coast of England, with no airline, destination are airport of origin shown.  It has flown via Greenland and very close to South Iceland and the volcano. It is currently flying at 41,000 feet.  High altitude for a commercial plane.

Military or civilian test aircraft? :-/ :-/ :-/

Theres a 777 and 767 coming over Ireland and it looks like they just diverted the 777 to land the 767 first, both are on route to heathrow.

From the news reports this evening it seems BA have many airliners in the air aimed at UK airports and are going to attempt to get permission to land. :D :D ;)

Willie Walsh has obviously had enough of the authorities that has kept his expensive fleet gounded! ::) ::) :D ;)

BA flight call sign BAW102, aiming for Heathrow, has just taken a very strange diverting course around Stoke-on-Trent and Wolverhampton.  Hic-up in Willie's plan? :-/ :D :D
