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 | 2024-04-02 | 404 | overlap OWENS-024 - Wichita / Lawrence KS (audited_partial, audit: partial); overlap SITE-003 - Lawrence (event) / Wichita (aircraft) KS (audited_partial, audit: partial) |
| SU-BTT | 2024-04-04 | 404 | overlap OWENS-024 - Wichita / Lawrence KS (audited_partial, audit: partial); overlap SITE-003 - Lawrence (event) / Wichita (aircraft) KS (audited_partial, audit: partial) |
Where this page fits
Two empty lookups here bracket a date the archives actually held: OWENS-024 is refuted on 3 April 2024 itself, with SU-BTT tracked from Missouri to Wilmington and never within 1,852 km of Wichita, as the overlap index records. The row calls that a misattribution rather than an invention — a real US day scored at the wrong field — and the vocabulary matters across the whole case, where the gap between an error and a fabrication decides how much weight the cover-up claims, the censorship record and the foreign-involvement arguments can carry. Read what the compilers counted as an overlap next: at 50 to 100 miles and plus or minus three days, a jet crossing the Midwest could score against an event it never came near.
