It’s easy to generate a fake data stream for a feeder.

I did not say it is not.
Yep, it was pretty obvious.
But FR24 is the most used site, others for reference are not checked
Just saw this on ADS-B Exchange over Ukraine. Obviously someone is spoofing this flight.
Check out the flight number on the top left of the screen. This was up for about an hour today for the World to see.
Surprised it’s that easy to spoof a flight.
Looks like real GPS interference has been in the region recently.
As all know this aircraft is dead, it’s easy to identify the fake.
If they really want to fool, they should be more creative

Bermuda suspends airworthiness certificates of hundreds of Russian aircraft
The Bermuda Civil Aviation Authority has suspended the airworthiness certificates of Russian aircraft. Aircraft that have been on the territory of other countries since March 13 without such documents may be denied a return to Russia, the Association of Tour Operators of Russia (ATOR) explained. According to the consulting agency IBA, 745 Russian aircraft out of about 1.4 thousand are registered in Bermuda, Interfax reports.
The aviation authorities of Bermuda explained their decision by sanctions against Russia, which limit the ability to supervise the safety of flights of Russian aircraft. Therefore, the regulator cannot “state with certainty that these aircraft are suitable for flights.” “For any aircraft in the air at 23:59 UTC on March 12, 2022, the temporary suspension takes effect immediately after landing,” the Bermuda Civil Aviation Authority said in a statement.
The Ministry of Transport previously reported that 1367 aircraft are operated in Russia, 739 of them are registered in foreign registers. According to ATOR, Bermuda’s decision will affect hundreds of aircraft. The association notes that it is difficult to establish the exact number, since since the beginning of the introduction of sanctions, Russia has transferred aircraft to its register.
The plan proposed by the Ministry of Transport to extend the airworthiness certificates of foreign aircraft and their independent maintenance in the Russian Federation previously caused criticism of market participants, Kommersant learned. The lack of software updates and developer oversight, players say, can seriously affect flight safety.
Thousands of Russian tourists are stranded in Thailand’s beach resorts because of the war in Ukraine, many unable to pay their bills or return home because of sanctions and canceled flights

It’s sad that those sanctions affect regular people.
I have a complete different view on this topic, but no politics here.

For at least a year, the Russian government has not recommended trips to foreign resorts.
These are the active Russian flights using a Bermudan registration at the moment. For obvious reasons.

In theory. In practice, these aircraft change their registration to Russian.
Russia was able to move only 180 aircraft so far.
Whenever one of the aircraft under bermuda registration is going international, it will be grounded.
Whatever they do in Russia is a different story. They have to be grounded as well, but the’ll give a shit on it.
“It is very urgent for the heads of airlines, in accordance with the instructions received from the Federal Air Transport Agency, to submit applications to the central office of the Federal Air Transport Agency for the re-registration of all operated aircraft of foreign registration, including leasing aircraft, in the register of the Russian Federation”
The document also states that after the Russian registration numbers are assigned to the aircraft, carriers must immediately apply for Russian airworthiness certificates.
The Russian government proposes to automatically extend the airworthiness certificates of foreign aircraft until September 1
