Keith, have to tried ADSB Exchange? I think most of us on here use it now as it pretty much shows everything, biz, military, etc, with all reggies. I didn't even renew my Plane Plotter subs as ADSB Exchange is far superior and is totally free to use.
There's a link on our home page at the top here, listed as "virtual radar - military" although as said, it shows everything. Click on that link and then select the "Global Radar View" tab and centre the map wherever you want it.

Nothing for me OTT today. Missed HZ-AK41 newish 773 on LHR departure (was watching The Chase!) but it all happened after dark for LHR arrivals/departures, A7-ALN 350 went overhead on the QR2, N817AN 788 went close by inbound on the AA90 and I saw the strobes of departing B-7347 773 China Eastern and TC-JYO 739 Turkish replacing the usual 321 on the TK1984.

Still excitingly dull here! Did see an Emirates A388 through a gap in the clouds but A6EES Not required. Had a couple of F15 beating up my office most of the morning too but can't ever tie the buggers up!
Could do with some nice Blue tomorrow as my last SIA A359 is due to pass over me (9VSMA IAH-MAN-SIN) then I just need SML when it arrives to the fleet.
Guess it's just updating the databases and maybe doing my day job too ;-)

Looks like it Mike as far as the fog's concerned. I don't know how reliable adsb-exchange is but there was one F-15 tearing it up earlier that was given as 91-0331. Went over Swindon heading SW making a heck of a racket

Had a lot of Mil activity overhead earlier, fog and low cloud put pay to seeing any of it though, sadly.

So I don't take US Fast jets off SBS etc Just had an Irish Pipistrel land at my local strip EI-FEJ by Mike Burdett, on Flickr Sadly wasn't needed but another first visit for our airfield Mike B

Bob,
Indeed it was, I have images of it at 2 LAA Events at Popham and now Northrepps.
Departed us this morning heading up the East coast past Grimsby last time I looked.
Nice weather for it!
Cheers

Also saw the Etihad 380 (delivered on Saturday) but missed the Korean 380, which would have been my last one, but I was driving my grandson home after babysitting. A319 LX-MCE was the final sighting of the day, and joined BBJ VP-BDC and 320 VP-CHA as the 3rd biz/airliner in a day. A330 CS-TOG was nice to see, but was previous seen in its Swiss identity. CHC Aw139 G-SARE was a nice overflight this morning. 12 new frames for the day was a good result.

It's a lovely day when it is good weather and things come my way free of clouds. All I have seen today is one miserable Wildcat and one equally miserable Merlin.....obviously neither needed.
The cloud has prevented me making 6 C-17s this week - which is a lot for me!!
