Re: The Flightradar 24 interesting traffic thread
FYI to the spotters, SFR B738 ZS-JRM both transponders have packed up and is transmitting all sorts of fake nonsense from them. Currently transmitting (old algo) hex codes decoding to ZS-JCS and ZS-JHQ instead of its proper code 00999B so bear it in mind if you see these 'unknowns' on the trackers at FL350. Should be fun with FR24 overlaying their error-filled scheduling data over the top of them too.

Re: The Flightradar 24 interesting traffic thread
*B734. It's always the older aircraft with the inaccurate tracking and the wrong hex codes (ZS-DMI, ZS-JRE, ZS-OAF, basically all the Airlink E135/140s, most of the CemAir fleet). Afaik the last B738 with inaccurate ADSB ZS-SJO got hers updated earlier this year.
Clear prop!

ZU-FJS RV9A
Just came bombing over my house at 6100 direct for Rand. The approach to ORT is 2 miles west of my location, over the yellow square which is the ERGO slimes dam, at 90 degrees to his flight path. Normally the helicopter use the N17 corridor low level.

FlySafair SFR325 did a RH 360 on short finals to 07 at Lanseria then did a left hand go around and landed.
Low level 360 must have looked quite spectacular

Re: The Flightradar 24 interesting traffic thread
Did anyone see this? I suspect it isn't that reg anymore as the P prefix are typically only used for the ferry flight then changes to an A prefix once in service.
