- THOUSANDS of British holiday flights have been hit by suspected Russian jamming - with aviation sources branding the tactic “extremely dangerous” and a major threat to air safety.
The electronic attacks render satnavs useless so aircraft are unsure of routes and struggle to tell others where they are.

Airline pilot here, just to debunk a few of the misinformation that the hysterical mainstream media like to spew out.
1. Specific aircraft cannot be targetted by these jammings, so it's incorrect to say that only British flights are affected, it's any aircraft operating within that region.
2. It is by no means dangerous to fly through these areas, aircraft have an incredible amount of redundancies built into them and from my experience we can EASILY continue to navigate safely without any GPS signals at all. We have ground based radio stations that we can use to get bearing and distance information off of, on top of that we have highly accurate gyroscopes and accelerometers on board that can calculate velocity and position via integration without ANY external signals from ground based radios or GPS signals and it is very easy for the pilots to interpret.
Hope this clears things up for you all, and if you plan on traveling anytime soon I hope you have a wonderful journey and peace of mind knowing that the Russians can't spoil it for ya!
Be that as it may, it still doesn't explain why Europe as not yet annexed Kaliningrad.
They said the only ones who were Not affected were those who didn't fly over those areas! So where you got Specific is a good question..
Once again facts dont matter, just brainwash the masses into hateing Russia and ignore the enemy within pulling U.K. puppets strings.
As a pilot, have you witnessed any UFO's?
@@-108- What does that have to do with the price of a can of beans?
The Sun, the last bastion of honest journalism 😂
Right lol😂
Ne'er the same since being de-tittified. Not even 'wearing her Green Shield stamps' -- over the nipples -- since 1966.
indubitably
they just stated facts, what's wrong with it?
The article is kind of well written but air traffic is not solely dependent on GPS.
Russians are just trying to stop drones and maybe even try to harrash NATO countries. Unlike vatniks in the east, local airlines know how to fly safely.
What a road of old cobras
What a pack of lies, you can NOT selectively jam a plane. You either jam every plane that flies in the jamming area or none.
Guess we should hold off on decommissioning more ground based navaid systems. ILS & VOR and dare I say NDB approaches forever. 😮
With Secondary Search Radar (vs. "Raw Radar"), as well as SIF Modes A, B and 3/C, adding a relative (aka "line-of-sight", or "Beacon") navigation feature should not be rocket science; Particularly in high-density air traffic areas.... somewhat akin to extended-range ILS. (Formerly worked ACT/DACT, A/R GCI in 2/4ATAF ADIZ... fwiw.)
Imagine: 3D radar scopes!!
I've been retired from aviation for a while, but I believe they keep selected VOR/TACAN facilities as a national backup plan. There is a plan called Security Control of Air Traffic and Air Navigation Aids or SCANTANA. This is basically martial law of the national airspace system. I was working during 9 1 1 and it was activated.
The other problem is that ADS-B is open to spoofing as well. Worrying.
Yeah i would never get rid of ils and vor equipment never put full stock into GPS we knew crap like this can take place a long time ago.
DGPS unaffected
.. "Suspected" .. How can you make such a Claim with no Proof....Oh I get it !! There's going to be Disruptions at the Airports this Summer , (like most Summer's now) So you putting it out there that Putin is to blame ..."Gimme a Break"
maybe.. just maybe.. because of the area where this happened? They didn't make a claim, but a possible suspect.
That doesn’t cause disruptions
So reading this headline it seems only British flights were affected?
No, all flights
Ryan air is IRISH
@@geoffharris4697Yes it is, but the headline just said British? So in that case Ryanair as well as other non British had no problem?
no, it says 32,000 flights were affected across Europe since October!! Only Putrid would do that, the worlds biggest loser and coward
@geoffharris4697 if the Ryanair flights originate in UK, which a huge number do, surely they are British flights. Wizzair are not a British company, but when their flights are return routes from UK, they too are British flights.
It was supposed to be warm today but Russia jammed the thermometer
😂😂😂😂
My smartmeter has stopped working too
😅😅😅😅
What kind of jam did they use?
Strawberry or raspberry?
Let's hope it's not the sort that compromises safety....Russians can't behave as usual
Strawberry of course
Yummy strawberry 🍓 Jam 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Wrong sort of jammin, he’s a Bob Marley fan.
@@robertpatrick3350 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
typical cowardly action to be expected from Putin
Bro like what is this…
Typical response from sleeping sheep.
The coward is not who you think😂
indeed.he's even more the cornered angry Rat now.
It’s all he can do since his navy’s pretty much sunk his airforce scrap metal all thanks to Ukraine, he thinks his cowardice ratty moves will bother us while he’s being obliterated by a country with no navy and literally has a small military untill shop keepers and solicitors teachers all become better trained then the whole Russia military
The pilots will have to use their knowledge from basic navigation training days.
Whiz wheel and a map😂
Today 22/4/2024 Moscow and St Petersburg are both GPS jammed, why would they jam thier own cities ?
Maybe expecting incoming drones.
Because that's how jamming works. They jam the GPS signal, but their own system (Glonass) is on a different frequency.
Russia doesn’t care if it jams itself. Only Russian civilians use GPS, in their mobile phones, and the Russian state doesn’t really care what they think.
The Russian state probably simply say it is a necessary defence measure against Ukrainian and NATO cruise missile attacks on Russian cities, and tell Russian civilians to use paper maps to navigate their cars until the end of the war.
No one said ruzians were smart
@@lolasmith2002 smart enough to make NATO and the western leaders look like fools
You're telling us your pilots aren't babysitting the autopilot no more and gotta work for their money? Really?
🥃🤓🍿
*Today On Things That Never Happened* without a shred of evidence.
- The Sun
lol they keep censoring my posts that C.h.i.n.a. has been the main culprit doing this. I doubt this will get through either.
It's all fully documented on gpsjam... The only proof is corrupted data. What more do you want?
All the russian trolls flock to this post to click the thumbs up button… 😂
Slow news day?
Simple enough to use one of the "other" sat nav systems.
The US based GPS signal isn't the only one...
It's the same situation in the middle east region as well, the airways are so heavily monitored by multiple interests that interference is somewhat unavoidable. But let's not allow facts to interfere with a good "bad Russia" bandwagon story, eh?
"sun investigation"
😅😅😅
It affects all flights and it is not 'extremely dangerous'. And planes don't use "satnav", it's called GPS and there are fallback systems. Stop inducing panic.
Let me guess, it only affects Boeing planes... Expecting that headline soon.

whatever you said there...
Leave those budget airlines outta this Putin!!
Less pollution on the positive side 😂😂😂
And then being stuck in this country, the horror of the thought.
I think this is full of Shull Bit,
Oh my, pilots will have to actually fly the planes!
They always did.
Just because GasPutin can't fly anywhere without being arrested.....
Well said it’s Putins fault for doing something stupid
He's flew to China, Abu Dhabi, Kyrgyzstan, etc etc, totally debunking you cope post 😂
@@NAFO_Posting_Their_Lsahhh those amazing destinations….. all apart from China are insignificant….. putin needs to keep visiting China as he needs to see russia’s owners.
apart from the Middle East & China... he is friends with dictators and terrorist regimes...
@NAFO_Posting_Their_Ls he better get used to these locations, it's all he's got...
Didn't know Ryan air was English?, last I checked there airport still existed in Ireland, but if you want to fix the jamming allow Poland to invade Kearns burg, i refuse to recognise whatever rusky name it is
Is this an act of aggression or indeed war against NATO?
Looks like war to me!
Bunch of kids 😂😂😂
Yes.
no this is just planes flying close to the war zone to cut cost.. There is a lot of EW going on! .. Do you think the evil russians want to jam commercial airplanes ? Omg....
Don't panic, it's propaganda from The Sun newspaper!!
Planes spewing out the chem trails were not effected by this... nothing will stop them 😂😂😂
When burning petrol diesel or kerosene aka jet fuel three things are produced, heat carbon monoxide and water and modern aircraft fly above clouds on the leading edge of the atmosphere where it's freezing, when you look at condensation on the window it's the same thing
Clickbait,why do i Keep falling for it.😂😂
The Sun 😂😂😂
Good job UK aircraft use VOR beacons as primary rather than GPS.
Flying in war zones. Is it not a hazard to passanger safety
SUCH MIND-LESS " OBVIOUS " PROPAGANDA ---- NO SALE HERE ---- BUSTED ! ---- from Canada J.
Richard🏳🌈Saunders. It's not propaganda if it happened and it happened.
“From Canada”… lol, nope! More loke “from St. Petersburg, russia”.
I stubbed my toe...damn you Russia *shakes fist*
White collars on holiday with trading profits, bonus
While blue collars on hourly labourous wage ?
Why does Kaliningrad still not belong to Europe, 2 years into this war?
Good question. Königsberg should revert to its older state, or even give it the Polish name. It isn’t russian, they should never have been allowed to acquire this territory after WWII.
@@Rocket_scientist_88 Come on, take it, sucker😄
probably the jammers working 24 7 to stop drones and missiles hitting stuff ,
This is the Sun so aload of BS.
It must be Russia causing all the problems with Boeing aircraft as well.
Delusional , insane !
Don't believe a word that comes on here
If it rains blame Putin
Surely there’s a simple answer, just don’t fly commercial flights near conflict zones !
I think the correct answer, is to expect Russia to behave like a responsible country in the 21st century. You know, not invading it's neighbors, ceasing interference in elections around the world, stop facilitating terrorists, and obeying routine safety protocols in commercial transportation. The basics.
@@kentalanlee You will always be ignorant of the true facts if you only look at western propaganda, you should widen your search.
Like the Ukrainians weren't attacking Russian speaking people in the Donbas region of Ukraine even after the Minsky agreement! Ffs!
jeez, ever heard of königsberg / kaliningrad? they use jammers to jam planes far into poland and even planes near berlin. thats absolutely inexcusable!
@@The_Signularity_is_coming report misinformation. ('singularity' is misspelled.)
Commercial jets have Inertial Navigation Systems (INS), which is kind of like GPS without the fancy glass displays. INS was the standard for years.The Boeing 787 cannot be operated without a working INS.
The INS is not accurate enough, there are way more planes in the skys now than when INS was sufficient
Don't think they used INS for a long time, all GPS now.....
That looks like a declaration of war to me.
Declaration of stupidity from you I think?
Ryanair flights have always been jammed!
🕵️♀️
So TICAS is not valid during war meaning revert to ATC
'We're jammin'. We're jammin'. Hope you ilke jammin' too...'
well there you go, grant schapps, con artist extraordinaire
And they don't have the balls to hit those radar jamming apparatus.
Na, it was the sun !!!
If its extremely dangerous why are we still flying the planes - such blatant fear mongering
‘Over the past 6 months’ 🙄🙄🙄
Russias answer to western Sanctions. Not only are those very inefficient but also lead to Russia gaining strengths.
Oh , pls ask your government 😂😂😂
And we do nothing
No proof but we will still blame Russia 🤣.
WAAAAAAH!
Duh, the jamming signals are coming from Kaliningrad, easy enough to find - last I heard, Kaliningrad was still part of russia.
Nice try, but everyone already knows russia is behind this. Of course.
Those who push such narratives don't even consider needing any proofs. Just say whatever, sheeply will believe 🤨
@@xana7196 he said everyone already knows, what more proof do you need!?
Based on the map, yes it is not obvious that it is them if one is that dumb.
The Soviets are dangerous is what this shows.
Do you believe everything you read??
Guess that'll make thier insurance rates go up? Very subtle
So whoever supplies electricity to Kaliningrad shut it down with the plausible excuse of a hack in delivering power to the specific region. When the Russians stop jamming is the moment the power is turned back on by sheer coincidence of course
So ,who could it be😂
We’re jammin, jammin, jammin, we’re gonna jam it for you.
Rubbish! It would have affected overseas owned planes as well.
Flaws in centralised systems and going totally digital are beginning to emerge.
and what about airpace closed for russians flights.............some disavantages could happen,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
What are the West doing to Russia's own GPS satellite navigation system Glonass?
Ruzzian jamming was coming from kaliningrad regions due to ukraine war
It was rainny today in England ,Russians hit the clouds with ions
FFC Ryanair is an Irish airline, not British. This is typical British reporting, claiming anything Irish as British as long as it's successful; if it's not, then it's Irish.
Ryanair is an Irish company.
Do they not fly British travellers?
@@grahampritchard5284what a silly reply, all brands fly British travellers..
I watched a documentary on the winter of 63,even then they blamed Russia saying it was sputnik, nothings changed, I blame Mr Putin for crap reporting by the sun, made to drive us mad
They are true rouge nation.
He is a dictator.. human life is not important for him
OK.
True. The only human life he cares about is his own.
Next week.
Russia caused Brexit.
Russia caused tories to win
Russian caused Labour to win
The IMproper Ganda is getting embarrassing and borderline funny.
If Russia were capable of this they would have already closed down the Ukraine
They’ve used it in Ukraine but there’s very little Ukraine air traffic - just military jets and they have countermeasures.
Well the system GLONASS is Russian owned and operated.
suspected lol all bs
Really…..1st of April was 3 weeks ago 😮🙄🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
WHAT IF IT IS LIES AND ITS NOT RUSSIA AT ALL ?????????????/
you wish
Of course it’s Russia they don’t even deny it

The war has been going on for 10 years now. It won't stop so long as Putin is in power.

Come on mr Putin alot of the west thought you was better than this...please don't side with terrorists...
“Side with terrorists”?? Too late, buddy - putin IS a terrorist. His nightly bombings of Ukraine civil targets… he is targeting apartment blocks, grocery stores, shopping malls, train stations, etc. russia IS a terrorist state.
Where is the interference coming from? Kaboom?
That's futile and only shows blind an helpless anger. Psychologists call it a displacement activity.
its isnt terrorists state ?
Knew it, this is what Putin will decent to as soon as he feels things starts to go south.
He already does it as it seems.
Where's the Crown outside shouting lock him up lock him up... Come on let's play them at their own game
You should calm down and take your tablets yer muppet..
What and you think "we" dont do the same ?
We don't target commercial airlines,no
No, WE (western nations) don’t do childish stuff like this.
Justification to the British citizens to fund Ukraine.
The US is doing the same
so , what is that supposed to mean here ?
That that makes it okay ?
The US is not jamming commercial aircraft like this, no.
If you thought your government was bad...
I blame Brexit.
