ads-b exchange

Post by gary7890 » Mon Apr 06, 2020 3:10 pm

While I am of work I have been checking ads-b exchange now and again to see what military aircraft are about. I have seen Hawks, Typhoons and F-16 over the Neverlands I have not seen any F-15 about. Are they still flying or do they not show up on here? Thanks

Should the Military still be flying? :pop: The country is supposed to be in lockdown.

Yes they should - and yes it is. They are doing their part, I hope you are doing yours. See your other self-generated thread for more feedback.
