    Click on the picture and you will see that the photos pull from Planespotters.net. The bad photo is not an ADSBX problem. They (PS) miscoded the hex associated with the photo, so contact Planespotters.net with corrections. ADSBX relies on community members like you to help. ADSBX Staff and moderators can't spend time on these errors on the part of others, while keeping the heart of the site running. Thanks for Feeding!

    For this one, it's showing on the map as a Jayhawk, but it's an USCG Ocean Sentry 2313. There's no picture to correct on PS.

    There are apparently 18 of those in service with USCG. Are you a feeder? Maybe this is a Hex miscode on the aircraft itself, since it shows wrong on other tracking sites. The database at any flight tracking site can't correct for bad transponder coding on the aircraft. How many are based at Cape Cod?. It would help to narrow down the 18 in service to the ones you see locally, and give hints to the Hex series used for the fleet.

    need the hex for that last one. Also, please feed if you are nearby. low altitude coverage sucks in that area. You got $300 to spare? You can feed. What town BTW? I'm a Masshole originally and spent summers on the cape for 10 years.

    2313 should be AE2BE8, but from above it's showing as a Jayhawk.

    I live in Gonic NH, just 30 mins of Portsmouth which is where I grew up. Was just on the Cape last week, beautiful area, just too F'ing busy during the summer!
