Two helicopters left LHR yesterday evening for Benson. One was a Puma with an RR calsign.

The one following was a Balloon according to FR24 with a callsign WARLOCK.

Those Malvern guys sure have a sense of humour.

ADSBexchange is probably the best tool for that job - in that it decodes the ADS-B data rather more thoroughly and transparently than FR24.

Mm, I had a look at that, but unless I'm doing the 'bloke look' that Ms TC accuses me of, I could see no way of seeing historical flights. I'd rather not have to be checking it while in flight...
