Has President Biden Departed Ukraine? 11:59 A.M. CT -- February 20, 2023

The top screenshot was taken just a little bit (maybe an hour?) before the bottom screenshot.

In the top screenshot, the two AWACS were in trail headed east, toward Ukraine.

I had not found the tanker after looking all morning.

Now, in the lower photo, the AWACS are missing, and the KC-135R -- refueling tanker -- is in its customary refueling oval.


This is what one would expect. The president was on the ground in Ukraine for less than six hours.

"We've" never seen fighter a/c at these tracking sites. The fighters have turned off their transponders (SOP) and are probably now re-fueling and en-route to catch up with Air Force 1 and the AWACS or some variation thereof. The exact play-by-play: macht nichts

Currently the #1 and #2 most tracked a/c on FlightRadar24:

  • #1: the USAF KC-135R tanker; and,
  • #2: the Russian Antonov A-124-100.
