Hi,
Can anyone please help identify 2 Alpha Jets that flew over Grantham this morning, one at approximately 09.40 hours heading in a south westerly direction and another one at approximately 09.55 hours heading in a southerly direction.

E137 & E31 should be your ones.

The ones from Cranwell were E137 E67 E35 according to the posts in the Heads Up section

That is correct the three at Cranwell listed above. I have seen photos confirming this on another group. E31 was not one of them, believe this was E137 mis-pinging.

The hex code [3B7642] "belongs" to E137, according to Albert's website. It is just ADS-B that has the wrong tie-up.
