Aircraft

The live People desk lists the state aircraft that carry office holders, and aircraft members suggested that the Gods Eyes team checked against a public source. A live position shows where an aircraft is, not who is on board. Aircraft whose owners opted out of public display (FAA LADD, Privacy ICAO Address) are never shown.
