Elon Musk's JetLooks to be that Elon's jet is headed to Europe
You may notice that tracking is more sporadic. This is because ADS-B is ground-based, over the water we rely on ADS-C and ACARS, which is satellite-based. An example below is from one of the hobbyists that feed satellite signals to ADSBExchange. The one in the back has been picking up signals for the current flight, this is a California-based ground station. In about 2 hours we will be picking up a signal from the UK one.

thebaldgeek@thebaldgeek @elonjet is this a photo of your setup?

My bio photo? Yes.
Since my main interest is ADSC and satcom ACARS I have the primary dish at the back for 98w and the second test dish at the front for 54w and 98w testing. Only the primary dish has tracking motors to keep on the geostationary satellite.
The smaller 98w L-Band dish is not in this photo, its on the other side of the house. The 54w L-Band patch antenna is on the roof of the house.
The #Inmarsat #STDC feeds are scattered around.
