Anyone else have stealth prop planes around their property?

I tried it today as my mother has been wondering why there are so many contrails overhead recently… sometimes as many as 5 at a time. The app showed no jets within a couple of hundred miles. Does that mean they are actually Chemtrails?

How far away can a jet be, and still leave his skat behind?

are you sure your tin foil hat isnt interfering with the computer.

Can you get a picture of it, and post it on here ? Does it have any ID numbers and letters on the bottom of the wings ?

My phone camera is not high end, so I could probably get a bigfoot-quality blurry picture at best. It also is not a regular occurrence.

I bet it is one of these.

Those look lighter weight to me. It looked to me like a normal prop plane.

Flight instructors started using my place as a visual placemarker, because it a Dome House and easily distiguishable from the air. I called up the local airport, found the school and politely asked that they stop the fly overs. Which they did.

Many years ago - out on the far reaches of my property. Checking fence line and scouting for coyotes. A single engine plane, all light blue in color, buzzed me three time. Getting closer each time.

I stood up - raised up my rifle - it has never come back.

I was out working one day years ago and was sitting on a stump eating lunch when a helicopter flew over low and started circling... Border Patrol. (I was only a couple of miles from Canada. It was annoying but I waved at them and continued eating my lunch, after a few minutes they flew off. I headed off on snowshoes again and a few minutes later heard them coming back. By that time I was a bit POed so I hid under the trees. I was wearing my florescent orange cruising vest and had they followed my snowshoe tracks they would have seen my ATV with tracks to my truck, so I don't know what that was all about.

if there just by flying visual flight rules, and practicing, your not going to find it on flight aware.

Not flight aware, because there's no flight plan. But a good chance they'll be on flightradar24 if they have a transponder turned on.

Purdue University has a pretty big flight program. There are usually planes flying around West Lafayette day and night, and most of them always show up on flightradar24.

In the evenings you can usually find 3-4 of their planes doing cross country flights around Ft. Wayne, South Bend, and back. All over northern Indiana.

Like this from about 5 minutes ago.
There are at least 4 planes from Purdue on that map right now.
If you click on most of them, they have no flight plan. Just Lafayette to N/A.

However, this one has a flight plan that says Lafayette to Cincinnati, which I don't know why, because hey, that's Lafayette to South Bend to Ft Wayne to Lafayette!

Maine looks pretty busy tonight.
