I wonder whether 4R-ALP is also not equipped with ADS-B but only Mode-S....4R-ALO is only equipped with Mode-S so she is hidden from FR24 coverage

UL must have been sold the full flight outbound leg to HKG flight on 8-Oct and CAN flight on 7-Oct.Originally posted by 4R-ALA View PostComment

Perhaps 4R-ALO was ordered with Mode-S to support the Presidential entourages. I doubt rest of the fleet will be equipped with Mode-S.Originally posted by Sandaru View PostI wonder whether 4R-ALP is also not equipped with ADS-B but only Mode-S....4R-ALO is only equipped with Mode-S so she is hidden from FR24 coverage
Hi Skyliner & Rahal, could you please shed some light on the above.Comment

I think its because of end of china's "Golden Week" holiday period (oct 1-7 7 days official holidays in china because of china's national day called as Golden Week) normally chinese use to travel lots during this so they may had full passenger load to CAN n HKG and its not sudden decision its pre planned schedule beginning of month flight schedule showed it.Originally posted by 4R-ALA View PostLast edited by Sali; 09-10-2015, 01:27 PM.Comment

Yes AviatorSN It's only visible under MLAT coverage. You can see from the screenshot i took in few weeks ago, i was tracking flights even before 4R-ALO got airborne that day and the aircraft was not visible until the exact point in the screenshot.Comment

All airbus have Mode S transponders - mandatory pretty much everywhere.Originally posted by Sandaru View PostI wonder whether 4R-ALP is also not equipped with ADS-B but only Mode-S....4R-ALO is only equipped with Mode-S so she is hidden from FR24 coverage
ADS-B is increasingly mandatory as well. No reason not to have this installed on a new build aircraft.
FR24 database probably hasn't been updated - this is the most likely issue.Always fly a stable approach - it's the only stability you'll find this businessComment

Hello...Originally posted by banuthev View Post
As promised I did some digging on this. I've spoken with an avionics engineer and his idea was most probably the FR24 database is not updated. He said the 'T3CAS' system has a significant difference in ALO so probably that might be the cause. ( read more about Thales T3CAS : https://www.thalesgroup.com/en/world...erospace/t3cas )
ADS-B is not essential for FR24 tracking, our old aircrafts are not equipped with that anyway.Comment
She looks so beautiful
