Probably Team Raven, flying six RV8 aerobatic aircraft. They've been doing various practice flights over Pembrey ahead of the new air show season. I think they're based at Swansea, but I could be wrong about that.

RAF Rivet Joint has been out over the Black Sea over the last week which isnt common.

I’m guessing it’s a combination of the Moskva sinking, recent kerfuffle on Snake Island and concerns about Putler invading Moldova/Transnistra via the sea (not sure what the little sliver of Ukraine is called to the West of Odessa)

Could be that they are looking for Subs ? So close to land the subs would be sending and receiving messages and wouldn’t be very deep, so tracking might be easier.
 
Could really do with opening Odessa up to shipping as there’s an awful lot of grain that the world needs in there.

Can’t really do that with the Russian Navy blockading the port and probably Russian Air Force as well!

Ah - that's what it was. I got a 'technical error' when I tried to see it.

Do you get random notifications from FR24 too? I think a lot of people get them and go on for a look at the same time. Maybe overloading the system momentarily.

The west , not nato , but anyone affected by restrictions on port movements , really should be doing something to remove the russian blockade.
if I controlled a large muti national dependent on ports in the black sea my accounts would be showing billions being spent on drones, planes , missiles, poison gas ,napalm, fuel air, to eradicate any russina threat to my use of those ports & on my operating position.

That’s what I was thinking. Massive sea power, carriers, cruisers, subs, air cover, to take a convoy of freighters in and out.
 
It looks busy over the North Sea today. I counted about ten eurofighters and a couple of tankers. Do they know something we don’t !!!.
 
I can't get on to FR24 for some reason. I think they have updated their maps so maybe there is a bit of lag after that.
