1553 local 09-0017 in the air headed north out of ADW

RCH512T just departing ADW headed north (NJ?), RCH520T on way back from picking up VP stuff in Nantuckette, and there was a third that just landed at ADW came from way down south.

I just identified AE4EF3 as MV-22 166491. Assigned to HX-21. Just called Osprey Ops 249.65 to let them know they are 15 minutes out. Identified themselves as aircraft 70.
OSPREY70 with ATC. 343.65

ADS-B Issues? Anyone else watching 86-0027, 1, AE0226, DC10, looks like he's doing CAP duties. His altitude goes from 4300 to 120,000 to 25,000 fluctuates. Any idea the cause?

Probably a bug or something.. I saw it too, it hit about 77,000 ft. The DC10 has a maximum ceiling of 41,000 so either there was interference or failure of a part to cause incorrect readings.

Yeah until recently running my own ADS-B receiver there are times when signal gets weak as
aircraft moves away and back etc. You will get sometimes crazy altitude readings as software scrambles to make sense of it.
Have had choppers at FL 45k at times after reading 1200 feet :)

I thought 120K was a little high for a DC10

During this mornings CAP, it looks like a Cessna 172 entered the restricted airspace around 11AM and was escorted to a nearby field by the F15's and landed. NJ state police then surrounded the Cessna. I'm reviewing the audio as I should have most of it.

You are tracking it via MLAT. The legacy Mode S data is much less reliable so I assume you're just getting bad decodes. Squawk codes have the same issue. If you are able track it with ADS-B then the data will be more reliable.
