B737NG:

Yea thanks, surprised I was able to track it that long, most countries ask flight radar 24 not to show their Head of state Air transport aircraft.

That was Wia Nigeria officials made a mistake. Presidential aircrafts should not appear on civilian tracking sites. But it will still be visible to radars of countries it is flying over

nevilbot:


Tracking a plane has nothing to do with Nigeria's approach to security. All planes flying at any point in d world are trackable. Its standard practice for safety purpose. All planes flying over the airspace of a country must appear on a radar for monitoring its location during a flight

I tracked an ethiad airline flight of a friend coming to visit me in Germany from Lagos last year. So far u know d flight code , u can track it.

But since its a presidential jet, its tracking should not be possible to civilians. But it will still be visible on d radar of every country it is flying over from London to Nigeria. And officials of those counties manning d radars will still see it as it enters and leaves dia airspace

I understand tracking of a civilian plane by every Tom, Dick and Harry, but a presidential plane?

I understand aviation officials in each country tracking even Presidential planes entering into the national airspace, but for a regular Joe to just use his mobile device to have such access, shows the little knowledge we have about intelligent security as opposed to gra gra security.

The presidency is thoughtless to its own self.

StOla:


Boko haram cells stationed in Abuja could also track it and actually know when it enters Nigerian airspace and know which plane to shoot down with a missile once it starts to descend into visible sky.

You right.And it won't be a gud thing for the country Nd Africa in general. See am an Igbo man but can never wish my president death. First he is a father figure to us,an elder Nd finally our president. He needs all our support to come back safely. I pity people wishing him death no matter his mistakes,he is a human before anything so he can't be perfect.He will arrive safely in Jesus name. Amen.

. This is a presidential plane not just any plane. The tracking should not be what every tom,dick Nd harry should be able to do. There should be some strict security measures here

This one you can nonlonger track him...hope all is well.

Nigerians has no chill ooo. So te dem dey monitor the president for Air

Nawaooo

Yes u are right.dey messed up big time on that

B737NG:
It appears tracking his aircraft has been disabled, perhaps someone isn't happy about it, his last shown position is over Algeria. By my estimate he should be within Niger airspace within the next hour

Tdayof

i never knew one could track a presidential jet... Security wise not too good.... Enjoyed the updaye from op.. We are waiting to get updates from the press crew once the plane lands. Can see security officials locking out and screening press men...

Over to FFK and bros Fayose

Nigerians: most intelligent black race in the world; only very poor in the use of common sense!

so the ode for no come back if pple no protest

It seems we are back in business gents, maybe the aircraft only entered an area without FR24 coverage.
The Presidents plane is still mainaining Flight Level 370 over Niger and about 20 minutes away from entering the Fatherland airspace

Presidential aircraft. You can only track to some extent. When it's within the Nigerian airspace, the pilot disables ADS-B and then you're invisible to others tracking with satellite.

I guess they're not interested in hiding their track.

Maybe not

Hypocritical iPods

The C-I-C's aircraft is abeam the ancient city of kano, has descended to FL360 and still making Good speed. If you have a scheduled commercial flight departing or arriving abuja around 4:30, expect at least a 30 min delay. The president's aircraft has priority.

Nairaland......The land of Wonders that never End......Never knew Airplanes culd be tracked......Welldone Op

Nice updates...

We are eagerly waiting

B737NG:
Currently over French airspace, approaching the Spanish border

If this is true, the fact that it is public knowledge is scary to say the least.

The BBJ's ETA is now approximately 4:35 If you reside in abuja, you can catch a glimpse of the aircraft around bwari at about 4:26 and overhead Kubwa at about 4:31

They have begun their final descent into abuja and are number two behind a Lufthansa A330

Madness... We need road not careless plane tracking.
