Royal Air Force FAQ
How many jets does Royal Air Force have?
Over the last 90 days we recorded 8 different jets under the ICAO callsign RFR, 8 of them also in the last 30 days. The actual fleet may be larger: jets out of receiver range, in maintenance or flying under a different callsign are not counted.
Where is Royal Air Force based?
According to the ICAO designator list published by the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Royal Air Force is registered in United Kingdom. The list records the three-letter ICAO code, country and radio callsign of every operator.
What callsign does Royal Air Force use?
Royal Air Force flies under the ICAO callsign RFR; on the radio the crew identifies as "RAFAIR". On flight-tracking maps the callsign shows up as the code plus a flight number, e.g. RFR123 — that is how we attribute flights to the operator.

In the last 30 days the recorded flights emitted an estimated 64.9 t of CO₂ over 65.7 flight hours; year to date it is 64.9 t from 22 flights. The estimate multiplies the typical fuel burn of the aircraft class by flight time and 3.16 kg of CO₂ per kg of jet fuel.

Fly the same jet type as an empty leg
Challenger, Citation or Gulfstream: when jets reposition without passengers, operators often sell the seats at a steep discount.
Data sources & notes
Data source: public ADS-B data
All positions come from publicly broadcast ADS-B signals that every aircraft transmits unencrypted and that volunteers around the world receive. Data may be delayed, incomplete or inaccurate.
Linking an aircraft to a well-known person is based on public sources such as media reports and registry data. "Jet attributed to X" explicitly does not mean that this person is on board or ordered the flight — aircraft are also chartered, sold or used by others.
All information is provided without warranty; no liability is accepted for accuracy or completeness. CO₂ figures are estimates based on typical fuel burn for the aircraft class.
Using this data to harass, track or stalk people is prohibited.
