The flight radar 24 app (free) shows you most every plane in the air and where it is flying and who owns it
The private flights at hanscom fall into three buckets * True privately owned planes taking the billionaires to Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, the Hamptons, Maine or (during the week) business centers. In the winter these planes fly instead to Florida, ski resorts and Mexico (yes all the way to Mexico from hanscom) * Disguised commercial flights that sell “memberships” instead of tickets and this gets them around the no commercial flights at hanscom rule. Net jets and planes sense are two of these companies and they are listed as the owners of the planes so easy to spot. These flights go to the same vacation spots as the true private planes but these poor millionaires have to share the plane with other millionaires and book ahead * people learning to fly private planes - because after all we really want more and more private planes. These flights are really irritating. They are horrible noise polluters and they go round and round in circles spewing toxic fumes. I would love to shut down the training flights at hanscom Enjoy the app. When a plane wakes you up open the app and see where it is going. Grrrrr I am also in the category of “moderated” so let’s roll the dice and see if it gets through the filter!
