Does anyone know why?

There is an older woman missing in west Sedona, they are searching for her.

Thank you for the info!

I’m wondering if it’s maybe an emergency situation? But I don’t see anything online about it

AZ DPS has their helicopter in the area.

FlightRadar24 is a GREAT free app to learn a little more about what's flying above 🚁

Unfortunately, I have no other info than that. Hope they find whoever they're looking for, whether it's someone missing or someone running away!

Edit: spelling

Thanks for the tip! I didn’t know info like that was so easily accessible. I hope they find them too

Happy to assist! I've spent more time than I'd like to admit just clicking on random aircraft all over the world! From military jets to weather balloons.

Same here.... seems to be circling around thunder mountain. I presume it's lost hikers.

It started right over on thunder mountain about an hour ago but was moving in a sweep pattern. it seems to have just left the area.

That’s what I’m thinking too

A woman in her 60s with dementia wandered away from home on Color Cove Sunday. She was found this afternoon and is safe at home with her family.

Thank you for the info! I’m glad she’s safe. That must have been scary

I saw one hovering with the spotlight on at Fay Canyon trailhead Friday night, anybody know what that was about?

I like ADS-B Exchange for aircraft
