    Just heard on 121.5 a few times the RAF (I assume) ordering N1295J from Keflavik, a Columbia 400, to head North, was over Scotland FL230 at the time. No acknowledgement and continuing on South-east...


    edit: the pilot of N1295J checked in about 20 minutes later on 121.5 a couple times but got no response

    No, he was last approaching an airfield east of Paris. But they were obviously with him for a while to see and misread his callsign. I can't upload audio, but the repeated message was:

    'Aircraft callsign November India (sic) Two Niner Five Juliet, we have been instructed by the Ministry of Defence, on behalf of her Majesty's government of the United Kingdom, to offer you assistance where appropriate. You are to come right to change your heading onto North immediately. Acknowledge.'


    Interesting.
