Agree. AAL71 is higher and ahead of UAL961 on essentially the same route:Not sure which is which but I think it's AA on the right

Air Tahiti Nui A340, flight THT7. One of my favourite flights that usually passes near my location. For example, see my post in another thread:

AirTanker receives penultimate Voyager ahead of civilian conversion

AirTanker has received the 13th of the Royal Air Force’s Airbus Defence & Space A330-200 Voyager tanker transports, ahead of a planned civilian conversion of the type.
Future Strategic Transport Aircraft (FSTA) 13, carrying the registration EC-332, was delivered to RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire on 24 February from the manufacturer’s Getafe, Spain site, and will undergo modifications to take it from a military to a passenger-carrying configuration.
This activity should be complete “later this spring”, at which point it will be added to the civilian register as G-VYGM. It will then be available for commercial leasing from August, AirTanker says, providing last minute availability for airlines.
Probably. G-VYGM is to be leased to Thomas Cook Airlines for Summer 2017:Maybe the fact that it is a leased aircraft confuses the flight tracker sites?
