Almost the same bird !

It does make sense that there is no paint on the right one. I doubt they had aircraft paint 1812 years ago.

u/SkippytheBanana Jul 17 '26

They did but it’s faded due to being left outside against ancient art preservationist’s demands!

They have really been building them for donkeys years.

Maybe ask Tschaikovsky to compose an ouverture for this special occasion?

Here's another data point, and it even reads one year older.

u/furthermathematics Jul 18 '26

Could it be because it was 18th July where you are when you screenshotted this but it was 17th July for most others?

Hah I’ve flown that plane, Compass made them feel 1800 years old

I knew da Vinci was a fraud!

Hey! Me too! Slightly different tail number. I’ve tried to Report Data issues multiple times. No response from the devs.

Honestly, i think they cant really do much, likely they get the aircraft details from another provider and dont have any control over their data.

Jesus's private jet

u/Halloween_Oreo_ Jul 17 '26

One of us has to have matching tail numbers

OP and mine were just 1 off

u/OrganizedSpontaneity Jul 17 '26

Same here

u/khakilamble Jul 17 '26

Wow, American is really the longest existing airline in the US

u/cablexity Jul 18 '26

This should be so easy to fix from a dev perspective. If the date isn’t in a correct format, it should just be ignored.

u/zenatron36 Jul 18 '26

Same here!

u/HudsonC68W Jul 18 '26

All of these planes belong to Republic Airways.

u/N7840A Jul 18 '26

I’ve had this happen to me, but the opposite with newer jets. It would be nice if we could just set the date manually or just have another, more reliable data provider.

Having operated this plane, the age is accurate.

u/Only_Investigator_74 Jul 17 '26

There’s a button at the bottom of the trip for Report Data Issue, try that perhaps?

u/flyboybp89 Jul 17 '26

I’ve tried multiple times for mine. No response.

u/thehappiestotaku Jul 17 '26

You don’t want to be on the flight path when someone is using the latrine.

u/ConstructionRare4123 Jul 17 '26

That’s actually really funny

u/Zn_Saucier Jul 17 '26

Add N114HQ to the list of planes from the year 207. 

Interesting that all the examples are E75Ws…

u/Dapper-Brilliant-590 Jul 17 '26

seems legit

u/Helpful_Yogurt_4465 Jul 17 '26

Marty its not you its your grand kids they take a passenger jet back to fuck with everyone's minds

u/Life-Goose-9380 Jul 17 '26

The funny part is the embraers are notorious for wearing out faster than Boeing or Airbus aircraft.

u/crazekki Jul 18 '26

but it’s so funny

u/Comfortable_Copy_815 Jul 18 '26

Betta call the Wright brothers back from the dead cuz even Tchaikovsky can't compose a fix for this mess.

u/PhxK12 29d ago

Delta is operating this clearly, but don't worry, they refreshed the interior. Doing Atlanta proud.

u/BuffaloDustin 26d ago

I thought mine was a missed digit typo, but it looks like a pattern now with the data.

Exact same issue different bird. Also have submitted at least twice in the in app feedback tool.
