John if you got this Information from Flightradar24 I would take it with a pinch of salt as its never really a good source to go by, not the most reliable on accuracy.

This is showing on FR24 as returning tomorrow, departing Keflavik around 12 noon tomorrow and arriving Prestwick around 1420. As you know, the times were a bit elastic on today's trip when compared with those shown on FR24.
To reinforce your point about FR24, the Keflavik site has GAF894 arriving at 1318 from Cologne tomorrow, and departing the same day to Leipzig at 1315... It also shows the aircraft to be an F-16, and the serial to be 16+02, which is of course an A340. You pays your money & you takes your chance, as someone once said.111blackmike wrote: ↑Sun Jan 30, 2022 10:20 pmJohn if you got this Information from Flightradar24 I would take it with a pinch of salt as its never really a good source to go by, not the most reliable on accuracy.
To reinforce it more, it's been showing the Portuguese F16 leaving since they arrived and people have been taking that as the gospel. Even with the weather not being in their favour for the crossing but because flightradar said it then it must be true.PD24 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 31, 2022 4:57 pmTo reinforce your point about FR24, the Keflavik site has GAF894 arriving at 1318 from Cologne tomorrow, and departing the same day to Leipzig at 1315...
