Dot Spotters ACARS SBS

hi

Yes i see the dIfferant Approach there in OZ to GB . Dot Spotting is
the name used here for High altitude Flights most Spotters into that
use Acars logs and SBS Logs to tieup civil and mil overflights and
Airport Arrivals . 99 pecent of requests are for Registrations for
a flight seen maybe miles high this seems to fit the bill ok.
Some of us are watching for new Frames biz and civil-liners and
getting Rare some of the older Series .one seen first time by me
this Morning on ACARS F-WXXL A380 002 . The high cost of
SBS eguipment here £500 TO 600 if you get properly installed
seems very high unless your a real Enthusiest and try to keep
databases and groups updated sadly a lot Dont . anyway will
have another longer look at Website when i have time see
if in any way i can help with updates

thanks your response
