Default Better tracking LHR - SYD flights

I have gone from this

Nice pickup. I love the automatic photographs of each arrival.

Some quick deciphering. Each range ring is 6.4nm and:
London Luton EGGW (top middle)
London Stansted EGSS (top right)
London City EGLC (centre right)
London Heathrow (middle)
London Gatwick EGKK (bottom)

and for the airshow fans EGLF Farnbrough left bottom.

Nice one. You do realise however, that Planeplotter will let you view UK and Europe traffic with no delay!

Matt, please refrain from requoting the exact whole post from above, it is not necessary, thank you - mod.

Pat,

you wouldnt have the link to download the fixes and waypoints in plane plotter would you?.

I have it installed but cannot see approach points at sydney like Sosij on 34L approach etc.

Would be awesome to see exactly where acft are tracking.

I have been following the QF departures out of Heathrow on Planeplotter over the past couple of weeks, really interesting to track the first few hours of their flights. The aircraft in the yellow circle over northern Germany is QF30 VH-OJL at FL310 heading 061 at 571kts .
