    He transmitted an erroneous 7500 code. No one had visuals on him at that point so without knowing what they were up against the QRA were scrambled.

    Apparently they were authorised supersonic which would make sense considering the uncertainty or was that retrospective authorisation to save blushes!?

    After 9/11 emergency transmissions are made on a special freq,
    Those two planes were on their way to shoot, a civilian plane out of the sky if a threat
    It turned out to be an error, within a Helicopter they SAY

    The next bit is my speculation, it was either as stated, or they were practicing reality for the OLYMPICS

      Would it take two Typhoons to battle one helicopter? Or is it standard procedure to send more hardware than necessary, perhaps so one can cover the other (I have no knowledge of military procedure).

      :biggrin:

      How about an air display exclusively for GC members. We could pick up a transponder for about a grand. Everyone's invited.

      We could crack open the bevvies and provide light snacking. When everyone's comfy dial it in to 7500 and we can sit back and watch the show. Cheaper than the red arrows :snork:

      If anyone's interested here's the Olympic Airspace Restrictions. If there's a member of the military hanging out the door of a helicopter waving a large sign saying follow me then you're probably in the wrong place. If there's a Typhoon rocking and flaring then you're in for a bad day and what they don't mention is that if you ignore these then you're possibly seconds away from being introduced to the business end of a Rapier.

                  UFO sightings have been up all over the world in the past few weeks, one has been videoed from a passenger plane.
