N828CL is no ordinary Citation Longitude. It is a factory-built MPA, with provisions for a maritime radar, beyond-line-of-sight SATCOM, and a retractable EO/IR turret behind belly doors no standard Longitude has.
On 11 October, N828CL, which made headlines a few months ago in @nytimes and @washingtonpost articles as FENIX701, arrived in Bogotá, Colombia, from Raleigh Regional Airport, NC. Since arriving, it has been flying out of El Dorado International Airport as DLPHN21.

The Army recently posted a notice that it plans to buy its contractor-operated ISR bizjet prototypes Then it was abruptly taken down. A top intel official says it created confusion. So what's going on & what's next for Army airborne intel aviationweek.com/defense/air…

“There is no, and I’ll be very clear about this, there is no plan for the Army to procure the contracted assets that we have today,” The ARTEMIS, ARES and ATHENA jets will remain contractor-owned and operated until the US Army transitions to its own six ME-11B Hades ISR bizjets.

Got to see these guys out practicing today. 😍 According to the link in the quoted post about the Texas Tech flyover tomorrow... "The flyover will feature two Chinook helicopters as well as a medevac Blackhawk and one assault Blackhawk, all from the Texas Army National Guard's 36th Combat Aviation Brigade. The flight crew includes Major Chad Dieter, a 2010 alumnus of Texas Tech, Major Jessie Guajardo, Texas Tech class of 2011, Major James Stetzer, Texas Tech class of 2012 and 1st Lt. Jeremy Wilkey, Texas Tech class of 2023."
Replying to @TexasTechFB
Following today’s flyover practice at Galaxy Stadium, the flight crew will continue on to UMC Children’s Hospital for a special flyover for pediatric patients. The crew will also visit the hospital on Saturday morning, presenting patients with the same rally towels that will be available inside Galaxy Stadium that afternoon. texastech.com/news/2026/10/1…

Rivet Joint 63-9792 as Hoover-92 descending into Greenville this morning. It's not due for PDM so this visit is for some other reason. Incidentally, this is also the first RJ movement out of Offutt this week. Unknown why there is a lack of typical flight activity

Along with the N500GA experimental Gulfstream, Mr. Toystark also managed to catch this beautiful Stratotanker out of Altus doing a touch-and-go right behind it. OILER41 #AE0137 63-7978

It is not every day the original G500 test bird shows up in West Texas! N500GA, the first Gulfstream G500 (GVII) prototype ever built, made a short stop in Lubbock today out of KSAV. Still an experimental test aircraft more than a decade after its maiden flight, it made a nice crosswind landing at KLBB today and Mr. Toystark just happened to be there.

Earlier today, the first GlobalEye bizjet for Sweden was unveiled. It's the first of three ordered by the Swedish Air Force, which will operate a joint pool of four airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) bizjets together with the Netherlands. saab.com/newsroom/press-rele…
Sweden's first GlobalEye. Unveiled. Own the advantage. Read the press release here: saab.com/newsroom/press-rele…
