It's probably just a private jet. This might be of interest: https://www.airlinepilotforums.com/hangar-talk/76759-how-block-your-aircraft-flightradar24.html

Oooh yeah, I see it. 'Blocked'. Airforce 1 maybe?

Its a bit odd Zacs, it seemed to take off from nowhere.
That altitude's a bit high for commercial aircraft
Question Author
Losing height rapidly now.

its gone from 45k to 25k since I started watchin, could be landing in Iceland.

There's a blue drop pin on the island of vestmanneyjar. Seems to be the destination.

theres one on each airport.
Ah yes. Now I see that. Doh!

lol.
This is almost as exciting as watching Norad Santa tracker.
Trump Tracker eh?
Question Author
i thought airforce 1 had escorts, or wouldn't they show up.?
You would think they would give it a bogus flight number.
Question Author
It would make more sense, like a cargo flight or something.
Military aircraft hangers to western side of where it's just landed. Strange.
Question Author
a quiet part of the airport, I remember about 30 years a Gorbachev landed at Bristol airport just as me and my mates came back from a lads holiday, we had to sit on the plane until he had been whisked off.
No disrespect boys, but is this pastime similar to train spotting in the past ?
