Government aircraft going to Phoenix.

Here are two 757/C-32As headed from the East Coast to Phoenix:

adfeba looks as if it originated in Hagerstown MD, but you can get artifact in ADSB Exchange.

adfdf8 and adfdf9 are the VC-25As. I’ll see if one of them shows up. … adfdf9 does. It’s a third plane, crossing the Utah-Arizona line.

You tax dollars at work.The money would only have gone to people with needs.

He can't even go to a restaurant a block from the WH unless they're in place.

That equipment gets transported on a C-17. Today’s three planes are all passenger planes not suitable for carrying cargo.

Check for C-17s departing Phoenix later today or tomorrow.

And good afternoon.

Irony being what it is, i had to cancel the flu shot I had scheduled for Wednesday.

that went from DC to Phoenix carrying Project 2025 personnel to Charlapalooza at your expense. These were passenger planes.

The equipment that accompanied Trump wherever he goes would have been flown to Phoenix on cargo planes ahead of time.

Thanks for asking, and good afternoon.
