Camped on AZAZ.
Over.
An anon insisted last night that the tweet about removal of massive document cache from Arkansas was true and then at my request provided a tail number for the supposed aircraft. N119NA I discovered that tail no. is registered to the US Dept of Justice. It was late and I did not dig beyond not finding recent flight history in flightaware. (Last flight listed was in May, not recent). Pic 1.
1) How did the anon even know this tail number, unless they saw it or had inside info?
2) How can we get its flight history to ascertain if the report has any truth?
3) We also followed a C130 callsign PROPS81 from Little Rock, AR to vicinity Seattle last night at the prompting of an anon. Radar lost him over Yakima descending. Unknown is this USAF C130 is related to the incident. Pic 2.
R7, over.
Trying to dig this plane's history is like finding a needle in a haystack.
ADSB has changed their flight history retrieval screen and you can no longer retrieve by Reg. No. or Callsign. ICAO only. Pic 1.
FAA records do not provide an ICAO number for US DoJ's 757 Reg. No. N119NA. Pic 2.
Over.
No additional info found other than the 757 was owned by American Airlines before US DoJ acquired it.
Still digging.
Calling KAF Recon Squad. I don't know any special digging skills beyond what I'm tring here. Would be helpful to find ICAO for N119NA and recent flight logs. So far, not found.

Good dig, anon. Helps corroborate the local radio report. Capped.
R7
Looking for specs on B757-223. So far have not found that exact model. Pic related, Model -200 is probably the closest? Unknown is this A/c is equipped with seats (it would have been when AA owned it prior 2012) but as configured for the DoJ unknown if it is set up as a passenger a/c or purely cargo. Model -200 capacity highlighted pic related.
R7, over.
Sorry wrong pic. Use this one.
ThankQ. Last recorded history Aug 3, 2018.
