I used AF292 this year in April and had GPS running during the flight and I can confirm FR’s data.

It would be interesting to know how much the North Korean people charge airlines to use their airspace, though.

I clearly caught one on its way up to Vladivostok but none en-route to China. I thought that also might be because of poor coverage within China itself too.

All the data in the article is real data and not estimated.

Great article, was a really good and interesting read! Being a FR24 contributor myself I just wanted to add that the absence of records of DPRK domestic flights is not primarily because of the low coverage of DPRK airspace but rather due to the fact that most of Air Koryo’s (the only airline carrying out domestic flights) planes are not equipped with an ADS-B transponder (iirc only the Tu-204s + An-148 have got one, namely P-632, P-633 and P-671). If a plane is not transmitting ADS-B data, it can only appear on FR24 using MLAT (basically a form of triangulation), a method which as far as I am informed is not yet available worldwide.
