I saw that flight take off when I went to the airport lookout earlier tonight, It was a pretty normal takeoff and departure, IDK why it turned back. Some reason tho. unsure.gif

"Aww cr@p Jim, we forgot something, my wife will kill me, turn us around...." Having said that I picked up a ghost flight couple weeks ago. Atlas Air 747 heading from a military base in New Jersey to Ramstein, Was showing up in flight tracker, but she was a ghost on flight radar 24.

Not squarking 77, nor any mention on AvHerald.com. Maybe a wx issue at SYD?
