Erika Kirk's Plane: What the Flight Record Shows, and What It Cannot
The public flight record does not tie any one aircraft to Erika Kirk. N79SC, the Learjet 60 this site has called her probable plane, is at some of her away appearances. But other jets are at the same appearances, N79SC is also at Charlie Kirk's events, and on about half the days both were heard it was within 50 miles of his usual jet, N582MM. The honest description of N79SC is a second jet in the Kirks' orbit, not a plane shown to be hers.
Status: Erika Kirk — Alive. Nothing on this page is a finding of wrongdoing by her or by anyone.
Why her side is harder than his
The test is the one used for his plane: for each dated public appearance, which Kirk-side jet was heard on the ground within 50 miles on the day? For Charlie Kirk there are 100 dated events before 10 September 2025. For Erika Kirk, two research passes (her Instagram, podcast notes, church and TPUSA event archives) found five appearances outside the Phoenix area with a date and a city:
| Dates | Appearance | Charlie there? |
|---|---|---|
| 9–11 June 2023 | Young Women's Leadership Summit, Grapevine TX | not documented |
| 19 January 2025 | TPUSA Inaugural-Eve Ball, Washington DC | yes |
| 21–22 March 2025 | BLOOM Women's Spring Conference, San Clemente CA | no |
| 13–14 June 2025 | Young Women's Leadership Summit, Grapevine TX | yes, opening night |
| 10 September 2025 | Provo UT, after the shooting (her own account) | — |
A July 2025 women's conference in Signal Hill, California is dated only by when it was announced, so it cannot be tested. Everything else before 10 September 2025 is in Phoenix, where the Kirks lived and where most of these jets are based, so a jet on the ground there says nothing about who it carried.
What the jets show at those five
- YWLS 2023, Grapevine. No tracked jet was heard near Grapevine. N79SC was heard only in Mesa, Arizona (11 June, 7:00–7:36 a.m.). The archives hold nothing for N582MM or N102DZ on those days.
- Inaugural-Eve Ball, Washington, 19 January 2025. No tracked jet was heard near Washington. N102DZ was on the ground at Cincinnati and Atlanta that day; N79SC's trace that day has no ground contact; the archives hold nothing for N582MM.
- BLOOM, San Clemente, 21–22 March 2025 — the one date that fits "her plane". N79SC flew from Scottsdale to Santa Ana (John Wayne Airport, 21.5 miles from San Clemente): heard there at 3:47 p.m. on 21 March and 1:19–1:34 p.m. on 22 March, and back at Scottsdale by 2:34 p.m. Arizona time. Charlie Kirk's usual jet N582MM went Phoenix → Van Nuys → Duluth, Minnesota on 21 March and back to Phoenix on 22 March, and no Charlie Kirk event is sourced for either day (the nearest, a pastors' summit in Georgia, ended on 20 March). But N79SC was not the only jet there. N560TW flew Scottsdale → Santa Ana and back on 21 March, on the ground at Santa Ana for two minutes at 12:43 p.m., three hours before N79SC. N872RA, which is based at Santa Ana, was at Carlsbad on the morning of 21 March and at Santa Ana on the evening of 22 March. Which of them, if any, carried her is not in the record.
- YWLS 2025, Grapevine. The jet near Grapevine was N582MM: Scottsdale to Dallas Love Field and DFW on 13 June, heard at DFW again at 7:01–7:12 p.m. on 14 June before returning to Scottsdale. N79SC was heard only at Mesa, Arizona on 13 June, and in Nevada, Idaho and Montana on the days either side — never near Texas.
- 10 September 2025. Her own account, given to the New York Times, is that she was with her mother in a Phoenix hospital and was "on her husband's chartered plane, headed to Provo" when she learned he had died. Two tracked jets flew from Scottsdale to Provo that afternoon: N40JD, landing at 2:29 p.m., and N102DZ, the jet reported as the Kirk family's, at 3:30 p.m. — see his plane and her plane on 10 September. The record does not show which, if either, carried her. N79SC reached Provo later, heard on the ground there at 8:23–8:56 p.m.
Of the five, N79SC fits one (San Clemente), and it was not alone there. N582MM fits YWLS 2025, where Charlie was present too. Two, YWLS 2023 and the Inaugural-Eve Ball, have no tracked jet at all. On 10 September every tracked jet was in Utah.
After 10 September 2025
As TPUSA's chief executive, Erika Kirk has had many dated public appearances. In Utah on 11 September, the day of the casket escort from Salt Lake City, four of the seven tracked jets were heard on the ground — N79SC, N582MM, N102DZ and N872RA (N79SC hopped from Provo to Salt Lake City that morning). Beyond Utah, two away appearances line up with N79SC on the day: the Presidential Medal of Freedom ceremony in Washington on 14 October 2025 (N79SC at Dulles that morning and night — but N582MM and N102DZ were both at Dulles the day before, and N102DZ again the day after) and the Hannity taping in New York on 8 December 2025 (N79SC at Teterboro, 4:02–6:18 p.m.). For the swearing-in in Washington on 10 November 2025 the jet at Dulles was N102DZ. For the Fox Nation awards on Long Island on 6 November it was N582MM, at White Plains the day before or after.
N79SC's own movements look like a charter aircraft's, not one family's. In the three days around 14 October 2025 it was on the ground in Florida, Colorado, Virginia, Texas and Arizona. On 8 December, after Teterboro, it was next heard on the ground at Rochester, Minnesota, and then at Philadelphia by 11 p.m. The owner the archives' aircraft database records for it changed from an asset-management company to a bank and then to aircraft trustees during 2026, and the archives first flag it as on the FAA's privacy (LADD) list between 1 May and 1 June 2026 (see the N79SC page).
Was he somewhere else when "her plane" flew?
That is the test that would separate her plane from his. Before 10 September 2025 it can be run on every day both Learjets were heard on the ground, not only on event days:
| Days up to 10 September 2025 both N79SC and N582MM were heard on the ground | 201 |
|---|---|
| At the same airport | 69 |
| At different airports within 50 miles | 34 |
| More than 50 miles apart | 98 |
On about half of those days (103 of 201) the two jets were within 50 miles of each other, and on a third (69) at the same airport. And N79SC is at 11 of Charlie Kirk's 100 dated events before 10 September 2025 — with N582MM also there at 8 of them. Only San Clemente shows N79SC at an appearance of hers while his usual jet was demonstrably elsewhere, and three jets were near San Clemente that weekend.
What this does not show. A day the two jets were apart does not say who was on either. A jet heard at an event does not put a Kirk aboard. None of this weakens or strengthens the claim that foreign aircraft followed her; it only says that her aircraft cannot be named from the public record.
What this means for the "73 overlaps with Erika"
The count of 73 overlaps with Erika Kirk was never built from any aircraft of hers. In the 85-row overlap register, the column for her aircraft is empty in 84 rows and UNKNOWN in the last; she was placed at each location from social-media posts. When N79SC is tested against the 62 register rows that name her, it was on the ground at the claimed field on one — Provo, 10 September 2025, after the shooting (see the Egyptian jets in the United States). That tests the plane, not her: she may have travelled on another aircraft, and her own itinerary has never been published.
What would settle it is a record, not a reading: her flight log, which she publicly invited people to check; the operators' charter records; or the fixed-base operators' logs at the fields involved. None is public. See also Erika's flight logs erased.
Every appearance, and where the jets were
Five Kirk-side jets for each dated Erika Kirk appearance. "Elsewhere" names the fields the jet was heard on the ground at that day, more than 50 miles away. Airport codes link to that field's full record.
