What civil STOL types are out there? What’s the seating capacity??
I think I see a story about a Bmi sell-off every year. Sir MB is 65 so I reckon it will be within 10 years.
Solid state so they are pretty durable. I have seen this done before with flash drives and all’s been okay. You don’t get much in the way of potentially-damaging, large EM fields/electricity going on in a washer I guess?
I thought this thread was about organised crime!
Depends on reception in an area e.g. someone must be feeding their SBS1 box onto the Internet, which in turn relies on aircraft having Mode S transponders. Any lower-modes wouldn’t show up.
Plus the above airfields you highlighted aren’t that busy for projecting large jets into the sky. 🙂
OpenATC
Some brief instructions

Note:
i) When exiting Google Earth, it will prompt you to save the

ii) OpenATC have a little rule that means you have to repeat steps 2 and 3 every time you want to look at the traffic.
Yes it was roughly on a course from Le Touquet to Hastings and then would have passed over Sevenoaks.
Moggy’s group is ARNE, a two-seat Colt, now featuring a zero-timed engine. Cheapest flying your area!
Any photos? It’s just landed (or went around on) on 09 at EMA.
Was it ARNE?
F-WWDD, Flight Number is 4F358. Go to openatc.com and open up the data with Google Earth. Presently position is SE London.
Reading your piece in FLYER, Melvyn, it sounds as if you would have welcomed some extra help as with the above chap and two old hands ? 🙂
Thanks Paul, spot on landing too! I am shortly to start my night qualification and apparently my landings will improve massively as there is less to concentrate on, only the runway and PAPIs. Had a day checkout last Thursday toward it, my first time in a 152!
I think Rugby was used for a RN sub VLF (ELF?) transmitter. So with that and the time signal gone, does it have any further function? There was some years ago talk of flattening the site and building a new town aka “New Hillmorton” *shudder* 😮

Unlike some lesser board software 😀 Key’s should automatically adjust, but check anyway by clicking User CP.
They’re also switching off the time signal at Rugby next week.
