SCPL..
I’m fully aware of Flightradar24, have a subscription and use it multiple times everyday. I’ve been watching the C130’s BAE146 737 and DC10 VLT’s on their runs a lot and can tell you that the signal is scratchy and subject to dropouts a lot when they are in remote areas at low level. The position freezes, and jumps around the screen or sometimes totally drops out.
Given my experience I will only trust ADSB data that the ATC screens get from the offical receivers correctly calibrated....
I really like flightradar24, it’s really useful......but for accident investigation????
let’s wait for the FDR report shall we.
