Unlike US Mil pax aircraft CFC-1 is allowed to overfly Cuba.. US civilian aircraft flights are allowed as well just no Mil types..
Looks like CFC-1 is gonna do the Guantanamo loop to Jamaica.. Saw it last year fly right over middle of Cuba on way back.. hmm.
Last years Jamaica trip cost Canadian taxpayers $200k and many complained.. lol.
Imagine AF-1 local trip even below $1 million..

Does anyone have a reliable up-to-date resource for HF ALE addresses on COTHEN? Lots of new addresses showing up lately that aren't in the usual scheme.

How does something like that even happen?
Miscoded, reported incorrectly, or changed and not updated in ADSB (whoever) records or spoofing by government so casual observer doesn't know what it really is. It's not like the government provides accurate lists of military aircraft and changes to commercial tracking sites.

Look for SAM flight(s) to Mexico City early tomorrow.

Secretary Blinken is on travel to Mexico on December 27, 2023.

12:10 p.m. LOCAL Secretary Blinken, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, and White House Homeland Security Advisor Liz Sherwood-Randall meet with President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and the Mexican Security Cabinet in Mexico City, Mexico.

There's a series of them that are mixed up. Sequentially, they fall in the range for the MH-60R's. The one's I am aware of are for MH-60R's 166571-166575 which are also being used by USCG HC-144's 2314-2318

There was a range of C-130's mixed up with UH-60M's but it seems most of the UH-60M's have been reprogrammed with new codes.

Guys

A HF listener on the West coast who follows STRATCOM & SKYMASTER exercises posted the following:

Possible heads up.

There is an east coast notice out for Wednesday evening from 8:30 PM Eastern to 8:00 AM Eastern Thursday morning. So far, nothing for the West Coast except the usual 3-hour blocks.

There have been a couple of extended east coast blocks like this one a few times this year and, each time, they didn't amount to anything.

So there may be some unusual activity in our area tonight
