Claimed flights we could NOT retrieve a primary ADS-B trace for

This is the only free, no-account source of historical ADS-B tracks we have found. It serves only what its volunteer feeder network actually received.
WHAT AN EMPTY RESULT DOES AND DOES NOT MEAN. A 404 here means adsb.lol holds no
trace for that airframe on that UTC day. It does not establish that the aircraft
did not fly, and it does not establish that a transponder was switched off. The
ordinary explanations come first: the aircraft was parked and silent, it flew outside
volunteer receiver coverage (most of the Atlantic, most of North Africa, much of the
rural US at low altitude), or the claimed date is simply wrong. Several of the rows
below are already recorded in overlaps.csv as audited inaccurate.
The claim is what is listed. The absence is what we found. Neither is proof.
| Tail | UTC date | HTTP | Why we looked |
|---|---|---|---|
| SU-BTT | 2023-08-24 | 404 | overlap EXTRA-005 - Lincoln NE (claimed, audit: inaccurate) |
| SU-BTT | 2023-08-25 | 404 | overlap EXTRA-005 - Lincoln NE (claimed, audit: inaccurate) |
| SU-BTT | 2023-08-26 | 404 | overlap EXTRA-005 - Lincoln NE (claimed, audit: inaccurate) |
Where this page fits
This gap list belongs to EXTRA-005, one of the few rows in the overlap index where Charlie Kirk rather than Erika Kirk is the person claimed present — and the archives reach neither the date nor its neighbours, so the row sits with the twenty dates in the run that have no coverage at all. Charlie-side rows matter most to the wider case, because they are the only ones where a documented public appearance can be lined up against a tracked airframe — the method behind the speaking-events catalog, the Turning Point record and, on 10 September 2025, the day-of timeline. Read the 73 overlaps for the arithmetic: the sheet claims 60 Erika-only rows against 13 Charlie-only, which is why the claim that the planes tracked Erika, not Charlie exists at all.
