As the flight was tracked with MLAT we only have limited position data.
Flight #PK8303 took off from Lahore at 08:05. At 09:34 the aircraft made a landing attempt that was aborted at 275 feet and the aircraft climbed up to 3175 feet. Signal was lost at 09:40 at 525 feet.

All times are UTC.

Screenshots show take off, go around and last signal.
Granular calibrated altitude data for #PK8303 is now available at flightradar24.com/blog/pakistan-…
Because this aircraft is not equipped with ADS-B, if fewer than four Flightradar24 receivers see the aircraft, position data cannot be calculated.

Please see flightradar24.com/blog/how-we-tr… for more information about tracking flights with MLAT.
