Title: Finally, some USAF heavies with ADS-B in my neck of the woods....
Post by: CYYZGUY on August 28, 2015, 09:44:26 PM
Friday evening, 17:40 EST, 2 DC-10 heavies showed up over Lake Erie not too far from me.  For some reason they keep timing out and coming back, I have good coverage there so not too sure why, especially at the altitude they are at...

Catched two of them here in Spain too, maybe they forgot to turn off mode-s.

Cheers.

They have an on going programme to fit them on the heavy transport fleet so expect to see more.
