I was just at a friend’s condo that overlooks the KSAN runway, and we watched an unmarked, all white 747 land. This is very unusual at KSAN - BA used to fly a 747 in from London, but switched to a 777, so I haven’t seen a 747 here in years.
Pulling up FR24, I could see it arrived from London Stanstead, but only by following the track backwards to its origin. The plane info itself was blank - no registration data, flight history, nothing. Looking more closely I realized it had no windows on the lower deck, but did seem to have windows on the upper deck.
I pulled up liveATC in time to hear the ground controller address it as “Dubai (four?)” as it taxied over to the general aviation pad. Then it disappeared from FR24, and I didn’t hear anything else from ATC.
I’d love if someone could point me to a way to figure out what this plane is, and what it’s doing in SD.
Thanks
