Good morning plane chasers EDITS: Today's finds HAPPENING NOW:

  • Heavy military traffic of T38s and Tex2s over Sheppard AFB, the last place the 92-9000 AF1 was seen
  • Alabama National Guard is on the move flying low in helicopters. About 20 choppers in the sky and a C12 prop plane and more joining.
  • There are multiple locations where military planes are simultaneously running big drills Seems like it might just be normal training via u/Fjolsvith . However I maintain that this is the most active I have seen these places in weeks! In Columbus AFB there are almost 13 T38s in motion!! and another separate group of 13 doing the same pattern by Sheppard AFB (where the airman mysteriously died and the last location of the 92-9000 AF1) group of 15 over San Antonio! 13 Tex2s also joining in the action in Pensacola.
  • The heavy traffic in TX could be from SpaceX? A Notice to Airmen has been issued in TX "TO PROVIDE A SAFE ENVIROMENT FOR SPACE OPS PURSUANT TO 14 CFR SECTION 91"
  • AF1 was doing low circles over/around the DC area. It is longstanding tradition for the AF1 pilots to turn over when the a dministration does, but it is not a law just a practice. It's very possible this is a training flight, however the VENUS callsign was not put up (meaning no vip on board) so anything is possible
  • One of the AF2 planes (98-0002) was flying out of DC with a VENUS callsign. It did MANY low loops above Harrisburg airport, not entirely sure what that means. Andrews AFB has been BUSY this morning.
  • ANOTHER AF2 plane (01-0040) flying out of DC with a VENUS callsign
  • Lots of activity in Texas, T38s and Tex2s are all over. There are many training facilities there, but this traffic is just slightly above normal
  • Gitmo flight out of FL

Yesterday’s “top hits”

  • Possible AF2 sighting? This plane is one of the B737s that carries high ranking officials, in this case from ~Missouri to Arizona. Interesting tidbit? This exact plane made a stop in Miami on the night of the 22nd. Maybe someone is making a little trip to Maricopa? The callsigns from these trips begin with AVLON if that means anything to you
  • Another possible AF2 took a small trip yesterday to an airbase in South Carolina. The callsign of VENUS typically indicates a training run, so we don’t think Kamala has touched her just yet!
  • There has been NO NEWS on the possible dead airman at Sheppard Air Base (where AF1 appears to be). The base hasn’t even been confirmed opened up yet, but rest assured I have emails to the news and my best aviators on the case of the AF1 location.
  • Is POTUS at Mar-A-Lago? Someone who knows more about air restriction than me is going to find out! In the meantime two helicopters hovered exactly over Mar-a-Lago for a while last night,~~it was likely a rescue or patrol of the ocean, but it does raise an eyebrow as they were the only two US military choppers out at that time. ~~ EDIT: It was a Coast Guard patrol searching for a downed airplane that had crashed into the ocean. Sadly they found that the man piloting it did not survive. Many prayers to his family and the search and rescue teams.

HOT TIPS: There are 4 doomsday planes that can be used as mobile White Houses. 3 are ‘normal’ E4-Bs with the following registration 74-0787 (last seen in FL)73-1677 (last seen in FL) 73-1676 - (last seen in San Antonio). The DOOOMSDAY plane is 75-0125 and was last seen at Offut AFB where it makes it’s home. This is the plane with defense against nuclear EMPs Tools of the trade: Callsign list thanks to u/Big_kc_master
