Just a little earlier a helicopter flew nearby. Looking at flightradar24 it was probably a HM CoastGuard helicopter on the way back to base after taking (presumably a child) to Alder Hey. But that's not why I am posting It was the top tracked aircraft on FlightRadar24 at the time second only too... a USA doomsday 747-E4B plane that flew towards Washington and looped a bit (and trace disappeared). And now it's flown a fair distance west and turning a bit now.... Close by are 6 Hercules 130Js flying one behind the other and they've tracked across from the east cost. All 7 aircraft are close together. The E4B now looping near Montgomery (Alabama?)... Probably some sort of exercise because there's 4 T-45C Goshawk's nearby too.

Oh I wonder if the vice president is on it just in case when the state of the union speech happens And why has a NASA DC8 taken off in South Korea? I think that covers the bases for wondering what is happening.

The gavel banged just now and Kamala has appeared. So there goes that conspiracy. I read a lot of Tom Clancy in the 90s and Jack Ryan became president. But the doomsday plane has finally stopped looping.

And now there's a C17 Globemaster following behind the 6 Hercules 130J's. Same start point of Fayetteville. All this because I helicopter came overhead just before I was going to bed.

You can go down a rabbit hole looking at FR24...

There are currently over 300 people watching a Bird Control vehicle at Schipol airport. At least seeing a stream of Hercules flying towards/near the 747 Doomsday plane seemed a bit interesting. And then the Globemaster joined in nearby.

Want a conspiracy theory, dieselgate. Yes, a company was caught and emissions varied from the published numbers and petrol was the saviour. Where was the transparency of testing of Euro IV petrol cars to prove the catalytic converters in cars from 2005 were still as effective as the day they were new ? Fine or discourage Euro V diesels from cities and the air is still not getting any cleaner, hmm. Those Euro IV petrol cars have got to be next. It's easier to get people out of a petrol car into an EV than out of a diesel into an EV. No one need reply to this, I am joking. Or, am I ?
