i have had trouble with adsbexchange ever since they update things a few months back, so since i can't, if someone would like to post a screen shot of their actual flight path whenever they are done or close to it that would be very nice of you. would like to see how close they stick to the graphic, and alt and speed changes too for that matter but i can really only ask so much so ill just stick with a request for a screen shot :)

Saw the flyby in Hickory. There was only 1 C-17 so no need for air to air. Nice flyby. He came in really low & turned towards the hospital right over us.

They were talking to Atlanta Center on 134.55.

If they didn't fly directly over your location, you would have missed seeing them. At one point, they were flying under 500 feet out this way. That is extremely low for any aircraft, let alone a C17. Granted, that was on the beach, but still, that is LOW. They were less than 2 miles from the house, but we still couldn't see it.
