A few of us on FighterControl are having doubts as to the correct identity of hex AE543E which shows up on the tracking sites as 10-00738 (and is thought to have become 11-00268).
On 16th and 20th November, this hex plotted on ADS-B with its callsign showing as 22558. Could it really be the long lost 76-22558 returned to the military??
Would it be possible to get a positive eye-ball identification of the machine with this hex code, please?
11-25-2018 A few more today including some transports for POTUS visit to Mississippi on Monday afternoon and evening,one flew over the house 15,000 feet descending,also E-6 and E-8 today as well:

Well, this is interesting. The Gunrunner callsign is used by HMLA-269. The Scramble db including the tail code/number suggest an HMLA-167 airframe. Wonder if it was a 269 crew was piloting the bird.
