N247P
« on: March 28, 2010, 05:37:00 PM »
Hi I saw this on the radarbox NAMC YS-11A-205 shown in Piedmont Airlines Colours reg N247P. I have it working Belfast City on 130.85 routing from West Freugh and to report coasting in Ballywalter. The pilot has a Southern accent. At this time i'm not sure of it's destination but working the Harbour I wondered if it might be Newtownards?

Edit Edit To contact Dublin on 118.5 when in range.

N247P is a Cessna C182T based in Navan-it was previously registered as a NAMC YS-11 which is maybe want you found it listed as.
 
It was around BFS yesterday and then routed via Ballyclare up to the Giant`s Causeway-don`t know where he went after that.

Hi sorry all yes as Angry has posted false alarm a miscode. I'm afraid it's a "Database special"  -  it's actually a cessna T182 (A24B45) based at Athboy County Meath
