The ten ground-position confirmations
Where this came from. The Following overview says that ten of its twenty-five corroborations are "the strongest evidence class available: the aircraft transmitting positions with the on-ground flag set, inside 15 km of the named field, on six distinct dates." This page is that sentence, opened. All 10 rows are below, on the same 6 dates the overview names — 20 Apr 2023 Wilmington, 19 Apr 2024 Provo, 23 Apr 2024 Provo, 23 May 2025 Provo, 4 Sep 2025 Provo and 10 Sep 2025 Provo. The count here and the count on the overview agree exactly.
What this slice is
A row is in this list when a raw ADS-B trace recovered and stored by this investigation contains at
least one position for the named airframe on the claimed date that is (a) flagged on the ground
by the transmitting aircraft itself and (b) within 15 km of the claimed field. That is a
stricter test than the ordinary corroboration: an airborne position inside 15 km could be an
arrival, a departure or a low pass, whereas a ground-flagged position means the airframe was
sitting on that airfield. To reproduce the list, take every row in overlaps.csv whose ADS-B
verdict is At the claimed airport and whose ground flag reads yes. The other fifteen
corroborations — airborne positions inside 15 km and below 4,000 ft above the field — are in
the 25 corroborated rows.

What the specifics show
Nine of the ten are one airfield. Provo Municipal, KPVU, carries every row except OWENS-013,
the 20 April 2023 SU-BTT record at Wilmington New Castle. The strongest evidence class in the whole
Following section is therefore almost entirely a fact about one small Utah regional field, not
about the sixteen airports the wider register names.
Ten rows are not ten independent observations. Counting each airframe once per day, the ten rows
resolve to seven aircraft-days: SU-BTT at Wilmington on 20 Apr 2023; SU-BND at Provo on
19 Apr 2024; SU-BTT at Provo on 23 Apr 2024 (OWENS-026 and SITE-004); SU-BND at Provo on
23 May 2025 (OWENS-035 and OWENS-065, returning an identical 0.03 km); SU-BTT at Provo on
4 Sep 2025; and both airframes at Provo on 10 Sep 2025 (EXTRA-006, OWENS-041 and SITE-006).
The duplicate rows are kept and labelled rather than deleted, because a duplicated row in a sheet
whose headline is a count is a finding about the count.
The distances are very short. OWENS-026 and SITE-004 record 0.00 km from Provo;
OWENS-035 and OWENS-065 record 0.03 km; OWENS-025 records 0.05 km; OWENS-040 records
0.16 km; OWENS-013 records 0.56 km at Wilmington. The widest is EXTRA-006 at 1.29 km — and even that
position was flagged on the ground by the aircraft itself. These are ramp positions, not overflights.
Seven of the ten rows sit inside three long parked stays, which is the least ambiguous part of the
record. OWENS-025 opens an 84-day SU-BND stay at Provo, 19 April to 12 July 2024.
OWENS-035, OWENS-065 and EXTRA-006 sit inside a 113-day SU-BND stay, 23 May to
13 September 2025. OWENS-040, OWENS-041 and SITE-006 sit inside a 6-day SU-BTT stay,
4 to 10 September 2025. Of the remaining three, OWENS-026 and SITE-004 sit inside a shorter
5-day SU-BTT stay at Provo, 23 to 28 April 2024, and OWENS-013 is the one row on this page
with no logged stay covering its date at all. A foreign-registered government jet parked for
twelve or sixteen weeks is a plain, checkable fact and it does not depend on anyone's claim about a
passenger.
Five of the ten fall on a day this site independently sources a Kirk appearance. OWENS-026 and
SITE-004 are the 23 April 2024 Provo ground records against the "Prove Me Wrong" event at the
University of Utah in Salt Lake City, 5 miles from KSLC. EXTRA-006, OWENS-041 and SITE-006 are
the 10 September 2025 Provo ground records against the American Comeback Tour stop at Utah Valley
University in Orem, 5 miles from KPVU. The other five rows — OWENS-013, OWENS-025, OWENS-035,
OWENS-065 and OWENS-040 — have no sourced Kirk or TPUSA appearance on the day, and three of
them have none within three days anywhere.
Two of the ten were called inaccurate by the tracking-site audit even though the position data
confirms the aircraft was there, and both corrections belong on the page. On OWENS-025 the
auditor's objection is to the sheet's route string, not to the arrival — the recovered trace agrees
the aircraft reached Provo on 19 April 2024, and the auditor gives the real routing as Cairo–Paris
on 18 April, then Paris–Goose Bay–Salt Lake City–Provo on 19 April. On OWENS-041 the auditor
confirms the substance and corrects the origin: the aircraft left the Provo ramp, not Paris. A row
can be a real ground record and still carry a wrong sentence around it.
What this list cannot tell you
- A ground-flagged trace locates an aircraft on a ramp. It never places a person aboard, and it never says why the aircraft was there. These are the strongest records in the section and they still do not reach a passenger, a purpose, or an intent. Each row's own note in the register says so in the same words: it places nobody aboard.
- Erika Kirk's presence is established on zero of these ten rows, including the six that claim both Kirks and the two that rest on her alone. Her flight logs are reported erased and no dated itinerary for her has ever been published. On the 10 September 2025 rows the compilers' sheet reads "Nebraska / Delaware" while her own account places her in Arizona; the register carries that dispute rather than settling it.
- A same-day sourced appearance is a calendar coincidence until something connects it. The five rows above show an aircraft on a ramp and, separately, a person at a venue. Nothing in this data links the two, and this page does not claim it does.
- Ten ground records out of an 85-row register is a small number, and it should be read that way. Most of the register returns not heard or no archive coverage, which are limits of the volunteer archives — not deletions, not suppression, and not evidence that the aircraft was elsewhere.
- A ground record proves presence on that date. It proves nothing about the dates around it unless a logged stay covers them, and the register marks which rows have one and which do not.
- On the count. The overview prints ten ground confirmations on six distinct dates and the JSON
behind this page returns the same ten and the same six, so there is nothing to reconcile. Note
separately that the tracking-site audit quoted on the overview worked from a 78-row version of
the register while this register holds 85; the two verdicts on each row here come from
different passes against different sources, which is why
OWENS-025andOWENS-041can read Inaccurate and corroborated at once. - Every claim above is attributed — the sheet is the compilers', the audit verdicts are the auditor's, the ADS-B verdicts are this investigation's, measured off raw traces we pulled and kept. No row here asserts that any living person committed any crime.
