Live Flight Status Question

Question for Pete.

Currently looking at live flight status and the VS03 is somewhere near the south of Ireland.

Looking at RaderVirtuel's site and it's skirting the coast of Brittany?

Is the V-flyer tracker just a guide to the journey based on the time the plane left LHR?

Yup - I don't get co-ordinates, so the position is calculated based on actual take off and updated landing estimates using the Great Circle Route.
