Flightaware and N111UT...bound for Stillwater.

...........per request from the owner operator. From Flight Aware.

I thought we (the people of Tennessee) were the owner. This aircraft is owned by the University of Tennessee, therefore by the State of Tennessee

Any lawyers here want to go before a judge and get this lifted?

Sure, but I’m going to use the same argument to get to fly an F-22 first (it’s “we the people’s, right?).

As has been observed on other threads here today, the Beechcraft King 350 is a wonderful OLD aircraft... it has a maximum ceiling of 35,000 ft., but at it's age you won't find many drivers who would push it like that.

Until our Coach Gundy steps off the real UT plane in Murvul, and not the one everyone is talking about that was sold to some guy on the west coast named Stevens, we should breast our cards and HOPE!

Confirmed. I’ve got the flight bookmarked and tracking it.

Edit: I have never used this service but it indeed says N111UT is airborne right now em route to Stillwater. Is this spoofed? No idea. In other words I still might be getting trolled.

Can you explain someone making a flight plan under that tail number and then making it private?
 
The departure and arrival times are screwed up....not makes me wonder if it’s still screwed up from earlier today when the flight didn’t happen?

It just looks like a delayed departure to me. If you’ve flown commercial you know happens all the time!!

Getting the tail number blocked is not hard to do. Actually, if it had been blocked in the past, it would make sense that it was public earlier. The FAA has actually been doing an investigation into FlightAware because a lot of customers who block their tail numbers have recently been unblocked.

Big deal for a lot of rich jet owners.

My opinion is that they called Flight Aware / FAA to get the tail number blocked. Would make sense that we couldn't see any flight history. I work for a private jet company and one thing that has been a pain in our ass is that Flight Aware has made so many changes that it has literally almost lost us business multiple times.

Any aircraft owner, including UT, can pay FlightAware or other flight tracking websites to NOT have their aircaft tracked. For businesses, paying for this service can allow them to not show their cards to competitors.
 
I get that. So there is absolutely no way that someone who wasn't the owner of the plane could file the flight plan under that tail number and then get it blocked on Flight Aware? How does Flight Aware confirm if you own the plane?
 
If anyone wants to be real crazy, there is only one FBO at SWO/Stillwater.

Call them and say you are arranging ground transportation for N111UT and wanted to see if the cars had made it to the FBO yet..

Nope. But the plane that was being referenced all day has been parked for some time in a maintenance hanger due for an engine upgrade. According to the reporter, it is out of service.

After reading a little more, there was an aircraft registration copy posted that said it had been sold to some guy named Stevens.

I didn't hold a piece of paper, and didn't go over to McGhee-Tyson to verify, but like everything flying around the past 36 hours, the airplane reporting stuff, including my own 2 cents worth, is probably worth exactly what you are paying to read about it here.

But, you gotta admit, it's kept us hopping today, hasn't it. Man, I hope we get Gundy!
