Ocean Shield - positions 5 April

The following are the times of ping aquisition as given by Angus Houston following a press request.

#1..5/16:45 WAST (5/08:45 UTC) Duration 2:20
#2..5/21:27 WAST (5/13:27 UTC) Duration 0:13 (return leg)
#3..8/16:27 WAST (8/08:27 UTC)
#4..8/22:17 WAST (8/14:17 UTC)

Does anyone have the AIS data for the 5 April dates?

If so please PM me.

The reason for asking is that:-

(a) the #1 positions do not reflect known tracks.
(b) the #3 & #4 positions appear to be transposed.

None of this will change the positions of the Ocean Shield, but could have an effect on the actual ping (Star) positions. They could shift ~2NM to the east.
