Vicpol aircraft all appear on FR24, however it only shows the aircraft type such as “AW139.” Luckily the crooks don’t know what an AW139 (head banging icon).

They do show up on AvTraffic as PolAir30 or otherwise. I know for a fact that “shady” people use AvTraffic to track them and the air wing are aware of this, however it appears that they may be powerless to stop it or have not reached an agreement with the AvTraffic guy… or so it was alleged by the person that told me that rumour.
