13 PLANEFAGS: Is this aircraft flying right now and showing up on ADS-B Exchange possibly the one in the linked website of Airbus? Altitude 68,000 feet for many hours and saw it yesterday and today, possibly same flight. posted 2 years ago by vetpatriot17 2 years ago by vetpatriot17 +13 / -0 https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=ae1313 https://www.airbus.com/en/products-services/defence/uas/uas-solutions/zephyr 9 comments share 9 comments share save hide report block hide replies
Drones fly at 68,000 ft?
yep
Thats a drone
Right. Trying to figure out which kind.
Q4
Thought its service ceiling was 60K, not nearly 70K feet?
Never trust the alt on those
Huh! Isn't that near where the Osprey and 2 other aircraft went down last week or the week before?
Maybe they are looking for something ground-based that may have caused the crashes.
That area out there is just god-forsaken desert scrub in the Kofa natural Wildlife refuge.
Not sure. AE1313 used to be assigned to an EA-6B, but they've been sundowned by the USN and USMC so it must now be assigned to a drone. Trying to find out which kind.
