I am sort of replying to nutty Stan, but more in general, as I think the general topic of tracking aircraft around the globe is fascinating, and the information may interest a wider audience. (In fact, I doubt it will interest Stan at all, as his mind is firmly shut, but still).

One of us gets all excited and giddy whenever posting, usually going off into rants and abuse, and it ain't me
No, the satellites do cover the globe. All of it. Even the southern oceans. Even the north and south poles. Every inch of the surface of the globe. Do I make myself clear?
Also, while it is sometimes helpful to cut and paste, in general I either don't, or if I do I usually quote it to make it clear. There is nothing cut n pasted in this post.
