We will be in touch
Just had a look on ADS-B Exchange flight Tracking site and there is something doing a lot of flying above Edinburgh Zoo.
Somebody got a new drone or have they strapped a tracker to a bird (fly 28kts at 62000 ft Apparently)?
Is it flying ants day yet?

Seems to be a test transponder for calibration purposes.
Thanks, was puzzled as I have never seen anything like that before.
