Title: Callsign BIO 10 anyone any clue what he's doing??
Post by: rookie on September 30, 2021, 11:42:40 AM

Hey guys I just noticed callsign BIO10 leaving BFS. I have noticed a few BIO callsigns all over the UK this week with rather different aircraft using it. Is this a sort of calibration flight for each airport??

These guys carry out various types of digital aerial surveys for any number of reasons. You can read about them here - http://bioflight.dk/

He seemed to be operating yesterday evening of the north coast.  Made a nice roar returning to BFS, over Antrim.
