I'm pretty sure that already happened, but it was just glossed over. I think there was one or two lines about the centaurs being in the middle of some conclave but he found it boring.
Yeah, the scene as written takes him pretty high. I wasn't thinking about the radar signatures at the time.
Sounds good, was a tad confusing but I likely only noticed because I'm reading my way through in a very short time-frame. I thought it was probably a plot-hook for later finding Betty later with Abigail and 'Frank' but the apparent discrepancy in the ages seemed odd enough to inquire further.
Depends how bad a case of dwarfism the werewolf has.
Your thinking of Dorthy and The land of Oz, Alice is the one who followed a white rabbit down the rabbit hole into Wonderland.And is definitely not enjoying her trip to 'Wonderland'. Her best companion, Toto, was in truth a werewolf, and now looks for its lost mistress and to gain vengeance on a wicked witch.
While they might control, in the sense of having the authority to tell people where they're allowed to go and what they're allowed to do, they do not actually have observation, much less control of a lot of that area, and Hogwarts (even before you start adding unplotability and other magic) is almost definitely in a radar shadow
No, It's unlikely there is any radar coverage of that area, but assuming there is Harry would look nothing like a missile.
This assumes they have full radar coverage of their own land, something NO ONE has. Unlike the impression you may get from some fiction it's actually fairly easy to avoid being detected by radar as long as you avoid:

1)Much too large.
2)Much too slow.
3)Has a LOT of secondary returns suggesting it's a collection of a lot of small objects in loose formation.
4)Maneuvers, very much unlike a missile.
5)No corresponding thermal signature from satellite imagery.
Most likely conclusion is a momentary glitch in the signal processing circuits aka "There's nothing wrong, I'm going back to bed, log it and don't call me unless you have a real fault".
You don't scramble aircraft for every anomalous radar return in the middle of nowhere.
This assumes they have full radar coverage of their own land, something NO ONE has. Unlike the impression you may get from some fiction it's actually fairly easy to avoid being detected by radar as long as you avoid:
1)Crossing national borders.
2)Keep your distance from any cities or airfields.
If anything I'd think the scene where he was most at risk of being detected would have been when he flew out to sea to swim with the Dolphins, then flew back, however given how he flies (by flapping his wings) and his relatively low speed I figure he has a good chance of getting filtered out of the signal an actual human would look at, and no way they'd spend several hundred thousand pounds to get an aircraft in the air and look at the anomalous radar return that is probably nothing, unless it was near something sensitive or they had reason to believe it was something more than that.
