It looks like KC-46 15-46070 GABBA57 is landing at Newark right now for some reason

FlightRadar is picking up the Embraer with it but if you look at ADSB it seems to be the same KC-46

Edit: Now it looks like it did a touch and ago

Edit 2: Now it is spinning back around but gaining altitude, holding at 6000 ft

Didn't have a chance to catch anything on the radio, but saw him passing over just SE of the house at about 5000' lining up for approach to EWR. A nice surprise.

Thunderbird-14 C-130J #08-5705 off Litle Rock headed for Vegas..
T-Birds are getting ready for practice season.. maybe Florida road trip?
Their first event is Daytona 500 Feb 19 so got a ways to go.

Thunderbird-14 now returning Vegas as Thunderbird-15 tonight from New Mexico.
Edit: Ok seems like last year they also did near Truth or Consequences New Mexico. KTCS.
Training trip takes Thunderbirds to New Mexico, Arizona (kold.com)
No ICAO for Space Port America other than this.. Nice long runway AirNav: 9NM9 - Spaceport America
Ok here we go with the T-Birds.. 9NM9 Spaceport America Airport (9NM9) - FlightAware
Spaceport America - Wikipedia
That location kind of turned out to be a bust in the long run.. Branson dreams of a future private Cape Canaveral.
Elon Musk I guess not taken with the place.

Good news though by 2036 I may not be around for them to finally get them all.
Down the road with new Govt they will prob drop some of the orders

I was near EWR snapping pictures the day before and of course they wait until the day after to do that lol
