DUB9

[Anmer]

The entry for 896560 showed a call sign of DUB9 (the only bit of info actually in the record)

Thanks for the update Mike.

Was that in your BaseStation Reporter in a sessions tab?  You can search on Callsign in the Sessions.

Mike,


I usually wait for updates for "unknown aircraft" rather than actively looking for them. It is just that I had been seeing A6-HMM in STN listings without it being shown for quite a long time. Plane Base are great and release 2 updates a week, and as it has been so long since seeing the aircraft listed, I though there was something else going on. Will have to be a little bit more patient in future. I will try the method you quoted in future too.


Best regards Mike

I have A6-HMM logged in my SBS database on 4 days.

Ian,


Exactly,


It is strange for it to take over 4 weeks to get the details into a database, anyway it is there now.


Regards Mike

Hi all,

A bit late now, but the aircraft showed up on VDL2 (digital acars).
On VDL2 all aircraft identify themselves by their ModeS/Hex code. They can also include an acars message.
