Refueling over Lakes Region
I attached a couple of flight tracks of a refueling op that occurred in May. (I seemed to have a lot of free time on my hands in the spring and I spent a lot of time “surfing the net”. That’s how I found this app!) Standard stuff available on the flight aware web site. This tanker originated in NJ, refueled another AC in the racetrack pattern that covers central NH and VT, Then heads down to western PA and then back to NJ. The close up of the leg up from Concord to the turn at Laconia shows them not flying over the Lake. Just so you know, there is a 10 minute or so lag between where the aircraft is and where it shows up on the flight aware tracking app. I guess it’s some kind of security thing. At any rate, if you see a refueling flight overhead, look on the app down around Concord. You might pickup the flight!
