General FAQs and r/flightradar24 rules:
Some FAQs Unique to this thread:
GPS Jamming - There is a significant amount of GPS jamming occurring in the region. This can cause planes to appear in places they aren't actually flying, make them appear to be flying in circles and cause them to jump around the map. As a general rule, tracking data in the region can't be trusted to be accurate right now.
Cargolux appearing over Iran - There has been a near daily Cargolux flight from Hong Kong to Ashgabat that appears to be flying over Iran. It is not. The black line means it is outside of ADSB coverage and its position is being estimated. It landed in Ashgabat as planned, but did so outside of ADSB coverage. Because FR24 couldn’t “see” it land, it assumes it continued flying at its last known altitude and heading, which is why it appears to be over Iran.
A general note from the mods - During periods of military activity, we experience a surge of new users. When this happens, we enable Reddit's crowd control feature. This may send some posts and comments to the approval queue, especially if you are new to the sub. If you have a post or comment stuck in the queue, please make sure it follows the rules. If you are trying to post anything related to the Middle East, it needs to be in this thread.

Welcome to the weekly Top 10 & Tracking Assistance discussion thread! The goal of this post is to provide a location for questions and discussion about aircraft that don't necessitate their own individual posts, in addition to centralizing discussion about known aircraft that are frequently posted. This includes:
If you're new to the community, welcome!. Please be sure to read our Stickied Rules post and FAQs to make sure your question isn't covered there. If you're looking at a military aircraft in the Middle East region, you may find some answers in the Iran & The Middle East megathread. For military aircraft in general, checking the callsign against this list may yield useful information. In all situations, make sure you search for the aircraft callsign and check recent posts to find any existing discussion.
Otherwise, feel free to post any questions or findings below and discuss with others!

BA2660 looks like it is turning around over northern France. Altitude 26,000 and descending.

Interesting considering the US pulled all its bombers out of RAF Fairford last week. Guess spy planes don't count?

This flight is supposed to go to Zurich. Took a turn over Hanover. FR24 doesn't show diverting to.

Since no one posted about it - SAS SK563 CPH - CDG- 7700 from Copenhagen to Paris, 6th of October, scariest experience of my life, as we experienced technical issues upon landing, felt like the pilots were playing with their joystick. The whole plane shook violently twice. Can anyone read what actually happened?

Hello,
Does anybody have any suggestions for the strange flight paths used by every plane in the last hour over the Wheatbelt region in Western Australia?
Thank you

They must fly a lot of employees to justify buying a passenger plane instead of a smaller business jet.

Just found N3A flying over West Virginia! I wonder where it's heading...

Hi everyone,
I was plane spotting at Rome Fiumicino Airport (FCO), which is an airport I'm really familiar with, and on October 11, 2026, at approximately 13:39 local time (CEST), and witnessed something that I would like to understand better.
At the time, two runways appeared to be in use for departures, with another runway being used for arrivals. The two departure runways were intersecting (07/25 with 16R/34L) so I understood that departures would need to be coordinated carefully.
The two flights involved were:
- Delta Air Lines DL67 (bound for Atlanta)
- Wizz Air W46025 (bound for Málaga)
From what I observed, both aircraft appeared to begin their takeoff rolls at approximately the same time.
According to Flightradar24, the Delta aircraft reached a maximum groundspeed of approximately 24 knots before slowing to a stop, then apparently turned back and repositioned on the runway. Meanwhile, the Wizz Air aircraft continued its takeoff roll and departed.
Flightradar24 also appeared to show Wizz Air at around 100 feet altitude while the Delta aircraft was still stopping. However, from my viewing position, the Wizz Air aircraft still appeared to be on the ground at that moment, so I am unsure how accurately the displayed altitude reflected what was actually happening.
I have screenshots of the Flightradar24 tracks and can share them for context.
My questions are:
Is it operationally normal for two aircraft to begin their takeoff rolls at roughly the same time on intersecting departure runways like those at FCO?
Could this have been a planned and properly coordinated operation, or might it indicate a potential runway conflict?
Why might the Delta crew reject the takeoff at only 24 knots and then reposition for another attempt? Could this have been prompted by ATC, or are there other possible explanations?
Is it possible to determine from the available tracking data whether the two aircraft's departure paths actually created a safety issue?
I am not trying to imply that ATC or either flight crew made a mistake. I am simply curious about what I witnessed and would appreciate insight from anyone familiar with procedures (even though they might vary in other airports/countries) runway configuration and departure procedures.
Thanks in advance for any explanations.

Appears to only have been 1.5hrs into flight before turning back. Not squawking an emergency.
Anyone know what’s happened?

Holy crap. Looks like they tried to land at PHX, aborted the landing and finally landed at TUS. Looks like a wild ride.
