Thanks, unrelated to the UN activities there was also a C5 out of Dover flying relatively low over the island today as well.

Great shots! Looks like the KC-135 is still circling over NYC as of 5pm (seen on ADS-B)

On ADS-B, is there a way for me to filter to only see military aircraft?
Thanks.

Thanks.

There's a filters tab, I believe MLAT and Military do the trick. You have to click them and then the filter button. Fighters don't usually appear, only transports/trainers and such.

Just to follow up on this: that day, I spotted an F-15 down low over eastern Nassau. Flying multiple 360s. Later on, it was reported all over the news that *someone* busted the Presidential and/or UN TFR! One F-15 came by to successfully intercept the GA aircraft. A few hours later, the same thing happened with a different plane busting the TFR! There were two F-15s on patrol that day for just this purpose.
Certainly was exciting to see since we usually don't have that kind of action here, except during an Airshow!
