Dubai choppers and the 777-9
Mainly any interesting happenings in Australia
I tune in to see UK military movements and, living west of Heathrow, viewing approaching traffic when they’re on ‘easterlies’ and the continuous stream of overflights on airway UL9. I also keep an eye on how the UK Gov’t is spending my tax flying around in G-GBNI, G-ZAHS and G-ZABH !!
My last tracking was neighbour travelling Syd-San Fran on a United 777 and then onto NY yesterday. The reason: to witness the yankee election. 🤮
I like to follow all Emirates flights. I especially like the long A380 flights to Australia, New Zealand or South America.
I like tracking any Airlink flights or flights on the A220 family or the E-Jet.
Always looking for aircraft where “Ham” crew members are operating on EchoLink then follow them on FlightRadar.
Military. Very interesting.
Flights landing on 16 L,R,and C at SeaTac in Seattle
Emirates A380 Brisbane to Dubai
