WEEKLY PLANE THREAD
✈️ Planes ✈️
*This post is updated with some interesting new findings. Find more in the comments :)
- A SAM out of DC it is an AF2 plane, but the SAM callsign indicates it's a high level official NOT kamala
- A lot of US P8 planes up and trying to stay hidden over both the US and overseas. These planes are anti-submarine and anti-surface planes with large weapons bays. Due to the nature of these planes, the lengths they are going to stay hidden and the fact that they are 'our guys' I will not be posting any up here. Godspeed soldiers
Two B-52H Stratofortress long-range strategic bombers heading northeast from Barksdale AFB: https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=ae586d,ae5872
Spez: Two more B-52Hs in the air, heading southwest: https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=ae5892,ae5896
Also, the 1st two met with tanker birds east-southeast of Boston for refueling.
A C17 joined up out of Andrews. The C17 turned north across Spain, turn transponder off north of Madrid. The B52 and fighter was met by 2 KC135's QID763 and QID7672 over the Med and turned off transponders. around 7:30 EST
These guys have been up for the last few days out of Shreveport, LA. Another 2 have been flying up by the great lakes recently too coming out of the Dakota's but they turn radar off when they get near there.
Heading to Europe...
Have y’all noticed all the activity there this morning? I saw fighters all over the place, including F-35s.
Seemed like a lot of transports from all over Europe flying into England and then out.
Dang—they really are going at a fast clip. Near Harrisburg PA when I checked. Both moving at the same speed. Fighter escort?
Over the eastern tip of Long Island already.
Strange call sign for the B52: now n/a
2nd plane IDOL11 has n/a reg and type, same altitude and path
