VIPs visit Area 51

[ProfessorMeThis]

On Sunday, June 1, 2025, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Caine visited Area 51 around 8:00 am.  The visits lasted a little more than 1 hour.  Both were returning from the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore on 5/30/25.  Speculation is they were there for a preview of the Boeing F-47.

I find it incredibly dubious this info is accurate. There is no way someone was able to track his landing into "area 51" The F-47 is not at Area -51, its probably in Fort Worth or Saint Louis.

The E-4B and a C-40 were both tracked and spotted landing at Nellis. They parked next to three Janet King Airs, again verified by spotters, which then flew into NTTR, tracked until they were almost to Groom, on a known flight path that has been tracked all the way to the base in the past. The actual F-47 hasn’t been built but it’s also known that demonstrators have flown out of Groom.

I haven’t been able to keep track today, but the E-4B was still at Nellis yesterday.

I will say due to the NTTR and Nellis being here we do get an inordinate amount of spotters and people watching the airspace here in Vegas. I had not heard about the F-47 demonstrators flying out of Groom though. I will have to be on the lookout at night lol!

They won’t leave the Groom-TTR airspace sadly. I’m fairly sure we caught one a couple years ago though.

Demonstrators were flown out of Saint Louis there is no way anyone "knows" they were flown out of Groom Lake. And as far as tracking them, its all guesswork they didn't see who was on them and if they landed at Groom lake. E4-Bs fly in and out of Nelis and other bases all the time, it being there means nothing.

Maybe not STL right now as the buildings and hangers are being rebuilt.

As stated previously, it is/was SPECULATION the trip was about the F-47.  It is stated in the discussion thread that it could be this administration's first look at the F-47.  It could have also been a meeting regarding NGAD components.  Or, it could have been about something new.

The discussion thread has some details about the tracking and the video expounds on it

For those of you who do not wish to read the entire discussion, here is a link to one post where Joerg outlines the entire visit:

While I don't take offense, I think this information is closer to being accurate than "incredibly dubious".
