FAF4126 inside Russian territory?

Post by Flyboy »

FAF4126 C-135 #740 acc ADS-B is flying a weird profile in a weird place.

From Russia FL100 to Georgia orbitting 5000ft, the back up to FL100 to the north and down to 400ft inside Russian territory??

Also if this would be real, wouldn't you turn of the ads-b transponder. Also: 31-jan this airframe landed in Istres at 16:27

I wonder whats going on?

Thanks You, thats solves one mistery. Remains the flying style at 400ft AGL with an (empty) 45 tonnes ancient aircraft. :roll:

Same with BAF F-16 which just "looked like it violated" Russian airspace (Kaliningrad).

I guess it is just one more example of unprecise fliying track.
