Mid-Atlantic Sightings

[caronia]

Hello Everyone,
This is my first post on FR24 despite finding this fantastic site 18 months ago.
I am curious to know how long it has been possible to pick up aircraft over the Mid Atlantic,and which radar is
used to do this ??
Many thanks,
caronia

I don't see any? North or South Atlantic? What radar ID was showing against the aircraft?

Possibly a spurious data packet?

Hello Anmer,I'm no expert here,but I saw NET1 does that mean anything to you?
I'm looking at another as I type this,when I click on it it gives me BAW780F ??
North Atlantic

I can see LH8171 heading east but when I click on the symbol it tries to display data for BAW1 (and fails).
Now the same aircraft is displaying as flight ID GS0000.

I suspect some corrupt data rather than a Mode-S receiver in that location but only the FR24 guys can confirm (or otherwise).

OK, Thanks for your reply.
