DLH 401 flightplan this morning.......

BETTE3 BETTE ACK TUSKY N63B VIXUN NATW DOGAL NATW BEXET MORAG KONAN UL607 SPI UT180 PESOV T180 UNOKO UNOKO1H
Question: MORAG reporting point is listed in Scottish airspace on UL10/UP6.
The track of the Lufty bears no resemblance to this. It flew over central Wales.
Has MORAG moved?

Are you sure you are talking about MORAG?

It seems to me that MORAG has been west of Wales at least from 17DEC09, so the Lufty did fly the filed track.

P.S Here's a note noting that the (old) MORAG was withdrawn from UL10 in 2006: http://www.londoncontrol.com/updates/update0613.pdf

Thnx for that. Found it between VATRY and LIPGO. MORAG, [the original], was named after a long serving female scottish ATCO. That's why, to me, the flightplan looked a bit out of kilter.

A quick case of sydlexia. The point you're referring to in Scotland is MARGO not MORAG
