Not hard to do at CLT. It’s one of the worst-connected airports to the highway. Guess I was spoiled growing up near MCO and its near effortless road connections to the highways for the tourists.I got a little turned around heading home and there are airplanes all over the road. 🤷♂️

Yesterday around noon, I heard some helicopters approaching from the direction of Piedmont Triad International.
I walked out on the deck and observed two Marine Corps choppers coming right at me at about 300 agl.
The one in front was a Venom and the one trailing was a Viper.
They flew right over the house. Scared my wife upstairs. She said she thought a big jet was about to crash.

I see that pair quite a bit off of Topsail beach.

old saying: private airplanes are the only known predator of the wealthy class.
Was there a pilot in them? They’ve been known to fly pilotless off the radarI've got a lot of military jets and rotary flying over my house, but when I check my Flightradar24 website, nothing shows up . Suggestions?
Saw 3 of them flying over in Duplin yesterdayView attachment 771965
One of my friends texted me and saw this fly over. Anyone know why a USMC Super Stallion would be taking off from Iredell County?!?!

That seems more weird rather than less.It didn't take off from there, they just flicked on their transponder at that point.
There isn't a national fully integrated network of ADS B/C receivers. These sites mostly rely on folks building their own receivers in exchange for a subscription etc. This is one of the reasons that the various sites can vary on what aircraft they display. Simply put, there may not have been a receiver to receive the transmission from the aircraft to upload it to the site. It could be this or very well as noted they just didn't have it turned on. It isn't a requirement for mil aircraft to transmit ads b/c transmission.That seems more weird rather than less.
