Yaani there are direct flights between Nigeria and the US?



At least that's United Airlines! There's a direct flight to the US by a Nigerian airline (Arik Air).

ET has more planes than KQ and that doesnt mean there's anything wrong with KQ


That I know plus they have more orders than KQ. I rarely see any flight on their airspace!!


The radar just doesnt show. Click on the airport icon and see all the planes taking off and landing. By the way there are planes on the west african side too but the radar just doesnt show. I have never sported BA flights


I don't know how accurate it is but I have found that flight radar and flight ware are not consistent. Back to our discussions. Currently ET has 20 flights airborne and KQ has 4!!! Make a comparison: ET has a fleet of 62 KQ has 46!! SA has a fleet of 55, 16 of which are currently airborne according to flight ware. This has been the trend for as long as my analysis has lasted!! Most of our planes are grounded.


Not every plane is captured by the radar. Anther thing there's a diff btn ETD & ETH


There's nowhere I wrote ETD. I first used ETH (ICAO designator) and then changed to ET. Both refer to the same airline. It's flight ware that has the option of seeing how many flights an operator has airborne. I haven't seen that with flight radar.


Just click on 'Filter' option on the left panel of FR24 and input the airline code eg UAE for emirates, KQ, ETH etc. Eg using the filter, i can see that 77 emirates planes are currently in the air.

KQ's Embraers (17) and most of the 737's (10 out of 15) don't have the Mode S transponders so they are not able to be tracked by Flightrader24. They use Mode C.
Most, if not all. light aircraft / helicopters operating from Wilson are also invisible to Flightradar24 for the same reason.


Thanks

This should make you happy
Quote:
MONTREAL—Prompted by a groundswell of public concern over the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, aviation-safety regulators and airline representatives reached consensus Tuesday on short-term steps to enhance global tracking of aircraft outside conventional radar coverage. Recommendations adopted by ICAO members include encouraging carriers "to use existing equipment and procedures to the extent possible to support flight tracking."

The interior design of Airbus’ new corporate jet is truly ingenious
