Strange Flight Pattern N57EL

N57EL had a very eratic flight pattern today 4/9/10 from KSTL to KSUS. i am not a pilot but this does not look right. Can anybody explain?

Yeah, that’s a little odd…

There’s something going on with KSTL’s radar. discussions.flightaware.com/view … light=kstl

That happens at almost all airports on FA… At least that’s what I’ve seen so far…

Not unusual at all. If you look at the track log you will see the the radar returns are from two different sources interspersed, KGTS and St. Louis TRACON. If the calibration between the two are off the least bit, in this case it appears to be about two miles, this is the result.

How do you people find this stuff? (I mean this in a good way!) :slight_smile:

I keep clicking on these threads thinking that someday one of my odd tracks will show up and I’ll get to explain it and feel like a hero but you folks keep finding the really weird ones…
