Madfox,

Thanks for that. Any chance you have the same info on the VTANG 158FW F-35s that went from KBTV to ETAD on Monday ? Do you still have a BLOG/website with this info somewhere (old link doesn't work anymore) ?

I think it's probably a phantom TIS-B target generated for CH-47 07-08737. The hex code is generated on the fly and does not indicate a specific aircraft hull. The tilde indicates that the code is TIS-B and the code will sometimes change as the TIS-B drops and re-establishes using a principle known as PFM.

Funny that they sent all that hardware to Barnes but didn’t take any F15s, very small airport for all those heavies
