ED209 Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Am I alone in not getting this planewatch thing? Or am I, as usual missing something? It seems like the equivalent of watching the motorway and updating when a nice car reaches the sliproad Ooh Lexus just pulled off the m1 heading for the m25 So what? I'd there more context to this? It’s just escapism from the harsh reality of life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest carpetman1 Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Agreed, mofo. No arguments! What we need here, if need is the correct word, is access to air traffic control conversations. I believe there is no legal way to listen over the net, but a scanner should pick them up. Of course this may lead to "ATC ITK's". On another note, NATS have a few animations they did a while ago on Youtube, showing the flight paths etc, they're a canny watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Reubens like Embraer jets apparently. Aside from their vast property interests, the Reubens took a new direction in 2008 when they acquired Oxford Airport , a business airport 40 miles northwest of London . Shortly after the purchase, the airport was named the new base for a fleet of Embraer 100 Phenom, a Very Light Jet (VLJ). The brothers are said to own more than a dozen Embraer Legacy jets themselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
