FBI DIRECTOR KASH Patel enjoys access to a litany of professional perks, among them use of a Gulfstream G550 jet, a 15-passenger luxury aircraft owned by the Department of Justice that he has reportedly taken to visit his aspiring country musician girlfriend. Responding to growing outrage about his personal use of the government jet, Patel has insisted those who track his flights are dangerous and cowardly.
Unfortunately for Patel, tracking flights is legal, easy, and an important tool of government transparency.
Software engineer and plane tracking enthusiast John Wiseman recommended ADS-B Exchange and Airplanes.live, another service. “They don’t use FAA data, so they’re not bound by FAA rules on what data can be distributed. They also don’t take requests from aircraft owners to anonymize flights,” Wiseman explained.

Thanks! I was able to find it in Flightradar24 😁
I very quickly glanced at the title and my brain read it as “Trash Patel”
Nothing wrong with your brain, it reaches the correct conclusion instantly.
If you’re looking to setup an ADSB antenna and help feed data, try out ADSB.im - great AIO package to feed multiple pages, like adsbx and airplanes.live.
