KIWI-806 C-130 NZ7003 coming Northeast from Travis enroute Europe prob for Canada stop..
NZ has promised the C-130 use for a Month or so working out of UK for Ukraine.
KIWI's always prefer Canada airspace over US so will get up North as as soon as they can
Speaking of old C-130's #84-0213 former Del ANG landing Sioux Falls SD now from San Diego.
Looks like recently using PROPS-91 callsign so prob belongs to National Guard at Little Rock.

1537- F-35 on ADSB-X in Viper. Only showed up for a couple of minutes.

Looks like they showed up on radar due to an aircraft audio system fail. Note the 7600 squawk code.
Comms between ZBW (LiveATC) and A-A on AUX freqs. - Audio Link.
