typhoon request 28th Feb

Post by Mark Lawley » Thu Feb 28, 2019 4:17 pm

any one confirm that these two Typhoons arrived Lossie in the last hour or so

ZK353 mode s / hex 43C77C
------- mode s / hex 43CAEF is this definitely ZK341

both these supposed to be on duty in Cyprus, just had them both on SBS near Lossiemouth

Hi Mark, have a look at :- viewtopic.php?f=8&t=173009
They need to be confirmed by someone's Mark 1 eyeball though!

2 Typhoons left Lossie for Cyprus on Monday, I assume these 2 are the replaced a/c returning home?

SBS / Hex codes fit in with these two aircraft so think it's safe to say they are those two
Unless they've swapped boxes or mis-coding as does happen


many thanx

Hi Mark

I posted in a separate thread (viewtopic.php?f=74&t=172922) about a pair trailing SW over Liverpool Tuesday morning - Only one transmitting 43C6A7 as ACOT 902 which my DB resolved to ZK314.

Are you saying these were ZK324 & ZK338?

Cheers
