What do we figure the range of this bird is? They going to make it from Oakland to Sydney?

This aircraft is a BBJ, so its range is close to 6000nm, depending on its configuration.

Hello from a fellow Chicago area feeder. The E-6s pass through the area fairly regularly. Here is a list of E-6s that I have seen in the Chicago area.

Hi Marty,
Good to meet fellow feeders in the area as well!!
Thanks for the list, much appreciated!
I see some cool stuff here in the my area (Rockford), I can only imagine what you get to pickup in the Chicago area. I get alot of flights to and from Chicago passing overhead. But I bet you get the good pickups over there in Chicago! I am using a small antenna, thinking about upgrading my stuff in the future, so I can get out further. KORD is just out of my range lol
Look forward to seeing your pickups
I recently picked these up

AE003C - is a T-38C. I also logged it, along with T-38C, AE0003.
Yesterday was a good day for non-regular loggings. Three F-15Es, two T-38C and the NASA B-747SP.

I was able to get this a few hours ago (waited to post for security reasons)
It is a VH-60N ZUFRP 000001 (Research shows it was Marine One, for the president and DOD)
It was at 5,500 feet near Madison

Hex code: AE4E8d
Callsign: TU
Unknown aircraft. I think it might be a T-6, but not sure
Anyone know what this is? Its obviously military, but I can’t find any records of it
