Good catch!!

Do you want to see something really interesting??.... Go to the following link. FlightRadar24 didn't have altitude information, vertical speed information and squawk information in the tracker :-o :-o

I actually worked a bit more on the feed and got this together. :wink: :wink:

Audio attached.

PS: There are some more communications with the Rescue vehicles on the feed  that I didn't add because the quality is super poor. Only noise.

Thanks Paul and Victor.
I've found more Shannon communications arising from the emergency which I hope will be of interest.
