Sometime in late March iirc, I saw a news article about it at the time

Now I’m actually pissed off. I’m 9 miles away from home, on Balboa Blvd. I looked out the window to see a KVNY takeoff, and out the corner of my eye, I see what I think is a C-17 passing 7,000. FROM 4 MILES AWAY. I can’t even tell you how many years I’ve waited to see a C-17 at KBUR up close. Now I’m angry.

Lol, I would be too, C17’s are always such an awesome spot

I assume this is a joke, cause this thread is dedicated to flight tracking as a whole, not specifically FR24.

While true, out of curiosity why do you only use adsb exchange?

Also c17s are cool, but if your using adsb it’s not that hard to find them considering there’s a free military filter.

I prefer ADSB Exchange cause to be FR24 has its limitations. Some aircraft show up as blocked, some aircraft don’t show up at all, I find coverage is sometimes better on ADSB Exchange, and FR24 seems basic, whereas the ADSB Exchange is like a pro version. I also like all the free features they offer. On FR24, you have to pay hundreds of dollars to see three years of history, but on the Exchange I can see seven years of history for free.

I’ve looked into this further and just theorizing here after seeing it came from JBER then KBFI (NOT JBLM) then to KBUR and finally KNZY. I suspect it has something to do with supporting naval assets.

Never seen this before - could be a repositioning flight from WA to QLD since JTE operates out of Brisbane as well. (The flight history shows it will go to Brisbane after Adelaide.)

I was looking for the RCAF P-3 but stumbled upon the New Zealand Air Force C-130.
