Virgin 540 is more-or-less at 57N 20W now, headed for LHR. Gives us something to track...

Do you know the flight number of this Virgin flight. I’m having trouble locating it to get an indication of where the B1’s are. MTIA

Showing as VS540 on Radarbox. Its north of BA192 (also LHR bound), to the west of Ireland. By my fag packet they're just behind the B1s

The Virgin flight should reach 56N 15W (PIKIL) at around 1000L too. Good proxy for the B1s ATM
