Air-force one is still marked as N A not AF1. Very strange
Let me guess. There are planes flying around. He’s not sure why or what they are doing, but it seems “strange”.
He notes activity of many types. He notes that AF1 is not identified as AF1. Just noting activity in and around US and other places. I find his posts of interest.
This is observation. Good to watch what is happening in re mil and gov flights.
A friend has been watching this guy and learning some of the tracking resources. He heard jets overhead Friday and all he saw was a KC-135 on the tracking site he uses. But he was hearing lots of other stuff.
I looked at the tanker track, which was clearly doing a refueling orbit, realized Biden and Harris were in town to politic on the dead bodies from the massage parlors, put two and two together, and told him they were probably fueling Biden’s fighter top cover. Fighters often don’t have their transponders on.
“Flash Bang” and
“Bob Marley”.
Hilarious.
Interesting
“The Air Force usually does not have fighter aircraft escort the presidential aircraft over the United States”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Force_One
And maybe it was just standard ANG weekend stuff that happened to coincide with a Biden visit?
Looking, we don’t seem to have any fighters in the GA ANG.
The one thing I am certain of is there was a KC-135 from MacDill running what I’d bet money was a refueling orbit over the north metro ‘burbs / North Georgia Mountains. On Friday, the day Biden and Harris were here.
Lots of troop movement around the country. Maybe Trump and the military are close to putting us all out of our misery and stepping in.
You need to understand that most major domos in the military today got there because they are politically correct bureaucrats, not warriors.
I think its also important to understand that the military does not want be the thug enforcers for a communist dictatorship.
I am learning a lot watching his blog. I have absolutely no education regarding aviation.
No, ANY Air Force aircraft with the President aboard has the CALL SIGN AF-1. Any NAVAL aircraft is NAVY-1, and then there is MARINE-1.
That tail number only refers to the aircraft, while the monicker {AF, Navy, Marine} 1 refers to the occupant.
Agreed. Which is why this is strange the call sign is N A
“Callsign” is not registration (”N number”) or “Flight #”...those “flight tracker” sites (”Flight Aware”, “FlightRadar24”, “ADSBexchange.com”(his) just use ADS-B info. to track flights... ADS-B includes “tail#/N-number” or “flight number”. ATC and pilots use “callsigns” for radio comms...things like “Speedbird” (British Airways), “Critter” (ValuJet), “Cactus” (certain US Air flights in the past, i.e. “Miracle on the Hudson” (inherited from America West Airlines from before the merger(s)) and “Air Force One”. ADS-B can be turned off all together, or the “tail #” part can be obfuscated for privacy/security. Military flights do it frequently for “OpSec”. The “ADSBexchange” ADS-B site probably just puts “N/A” in there when the ADS-B ground station receiving signal is weak or the aircraft is in “privacy mode”. (Like a lot of the Epstein flights to “Pleasure Island” were).

military aircraft drop off the radar all together in privacy mode. The signal issue is odd I don't understand that explanation when the tail number and nearly everything else about the plane is showing.
N/A was written in or a default for not showing a callsign. What I'm trying to understand is why a callsign wouldn't get posted in the flight log.
