Coastguard Helo

[Billy]

I have seen G-MCGL (CG999) from Prestwick airport in Scotland out and about 3 times since yesterday

think its fr24 witch is silly tbh

Both of those have ADS-B, or did when I last tracked them, so either they have it turned off or FR24 has decided to block them.

[smudger1309]

they have been been called out, they were out training the other day and shout on the weekend, im keen rnli supporter so i listen to the channels but funny thing is it dont show up on fr24 but it does on shipping one shrugs lol

Thanks. You could try using Playback for the days you think they were active.

All the ones covering South Wales and the West Country display.

The last time I recorded these aircraft on my SBS/BaseStation from here was:

G-MCGJ S92 18/03/2016

G-MCGK S92 20/05/2016

But I wouldn't normally expect to pick them up at low altitude in North Wales from my location. So they may have been active since these dates.

yeah G-MCGJ and G-MCGK

[Anmer]

Do you know the registrations of the Coastguard helicopters covering North Wales?

[smudger1309]

ones in north wales no longer show up

[Anmer]

I still see the UK Coastguard helicopters.

Here's one from yesterday.
