ADS-B glitchesPiper PA-28 Cherokee
Piper PA-28 Cherokee N8447L has an identity mismatch near Manchester
The aircraft was reported near Manchester, Michigan, with callsign N726DF, which differs from the database registration.
The identifiers disagreed during a flight reported near Manchester, Michigan, on July 13, 2026. The aircraft database lists N8447L as a Piper PA-28 Cherokee, while the transmitted callsign was N726DF. That conflict leaves the registration and aircraft type uncertain for this observation.
The mismatch could come from a database error, a re-registration or an avionics setting; its cause is unknown. The archive also carried N726DF as its callsign label. That agreement does not resolve whether the database identity describes the aircraft that flew.
