Can anyone confirm whether today was the last VH-3D mission as Marine One? The attached facebook post lists it as so, also has nice pictures of the Nighthawks.

I wouldn't bet the house on that statement but nice pics..
In normal ADSB mode sure are a lot of Airline Red Eye flights to Europe tonight..

Leveling off at FL-260 at tanking level.. Maybe pick up some Makos? Maybe headed for Puerto Rico?

Dragging LA ANG F-15s taking part in the CRUZEX 2024 exercise in Brazil on Coronet South 802.

I think the fighters may have been SKYCAM 15 flight, never heard this callsign before I think .... :rolleyes:

NH31 landed at Philly - tried to look at it on the Philly live cam but I guess not - although maybe they are watching the maintenance guy

Yesterday it was the typical view across the parking lot, taxiways, apron and runway. After I posted yesterday evening about a V-22 in flight visible on the feed someone switched to this camera view. I don't believe it was coincidence but maybe I am wrong.

I will lean to someone saw your post and said - oops - we missed a cam. With tighter security for all parties involved and this close to the election they are probably being even more careful with possible data leaks (for lack of a better term).

1140- AF1 (C-32 # 09-0017) off ILG. Back up (# 09-0015). # 09-0015 did big circle from ADW to around DOV and now heading back to ADW.
AF-1 looks inbound Scranton as scheduled.. NOBLE-11 did rtb home base so maybe CAP paused for now?

11:32 local RAVEN-01 with Pot apch says will rtb Martin to refuel then will be working rejoin of Castle three C-130's up towards Havre de Grace
in the outer ring of TFR. Then will fly VFR to Ft Indiantown/Harrisburg.The 3 CASTLE C-130's look like they departed from Salisbury airport.
1213 local CASTLE's A/A 343.000 warns of skydiving near Havre De Grace and RAVEN 1+2 will be working that.
Looks like jump aircraft is N1242Y Cessna 208 holding in that area out of Harford Cty airport.CASTLE A/A with Raven 01 on 343.000. First time hearing that :)
CASTLE-30 flight says Darkstar ready for jump. Never heard C-130's with Del ANG work with A-10's before.
Must have been nice sight along the Sussky River.Odd mssion for sure.

AF1 heads to Scranton tomorrow...

11:30 AM THE PRESIDENT departs Wilmington, Delaware en route to Scranton, Pennsylvania
12:10 PM THE PRESIDENT arrives to Scranton, Pennsylvania Wilkes-Barre Scranton International Airport
3:40 PM THE PRESIDENT departs Scranton, Pennsylvania en route to Wilmington, Delaware Wilkes-Barre Scranton International Airport
4:20 PM THE PRESIDENT arrives to Wilmington, Delaware

I saw 09-0017/Air Force One take off from KILG at 11:43am EDT but was not in a good location to photograph it. I hope to have better results on the return flight this afternoon. I missed all the activity yesterday due to longstanding plans - though we did get a low MV-22 pass rattling the windows as it headed back south once the president had settled in here in DE.
