Vehicles showing as planes

[tonyberinson]

Hi All,

I am in Perth Australia - and noticed that the vehicles that drive around the airport are now denoted on the radar and show as planes.

Its very confusing and clutters up the screen with vehicles.

I notice in Sydney - the vehicles display as cars.. why in Perth do we see them as planes?

Can this be changed?

Thanks

Tony

anyone help?? or suggest how to filter out?

Tony,

You can't filter them out but if you note their hex codes then advise FR24 with a post (via the following link) that they are 'Airport Ground Vehicles' or similar they'll be changed (given a vehicle icon and noted as such) in the database. I still have a few to update for Sydney after I did an initial bunch of them so you may have noticed a few irritating 'aircraft vehicles' over here. Thanks for the reminder. I've been tied up with getting my receiver to function correctly.

Unfortunately Air Services Australia couldn't (understandably) tell me what each 'vehicle' was so we simply named them all a generic 'vehicle.'
