F18 crash in DV, 4 Oct
#13
Ah, okay. I tried again and figured out how to do the playback.

2200 UTC = 3:00 PM PDT (per timeanddate.com).

I found a KC-130, callsign DRAFT 82, that was flying from Yuma to ?. I first spotted it at about 2257 UTC, southwest of Ft. Irwin. It continued flying NW until it was west of Ft Irwin.

Then at about 2302 UTC, it turned north, then northeast, then east. Then I saw the icon change directions a few times. Then at about 2310 UTC it dropped off.

While all that was going on, it was still some distance from the Park boundary. Perhaps they turned off the publicly visible tracking before flying toward the crash site?
