I believe PIA can only be used within the USA, N628TS being in the Middle East means it has to use its normal identifier.
However it does seem if you look at the history on ADSB exchange it is broadcasting as N628TS while in the US.
Elon is at the World Cup Final (he has disclosed this himself [0]) and so noting that N628TS is in Qatar isn't "Doxing" him.

- leereeves 4y agoAlso, the history for N628TS shows "no data available" for Dec 6-12 and Nov 29-30. https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=a835af&lat=34.765&lon=-98.635&zoom=3.0&showTrace=2022-12-12 https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=a835af&lat=34.765&lon=-... Since there are gaps in the public location data, how can anyone make the claim that none of his aircraft have used PIA codes recently? Is that based on some additional history not on adsbexchange?
- _djo_ 4y agoDifficult to prove a negative, but we can show that his aircraft have used non-PIA public codes for US flights recently. That makes it highly unlikely that PIA was used on other flights in between. It also doesn’t explain why Musk’s Twitter also banned linking to ADSB Exchange and related trackers which, logically, would not have been able to track his aircraft when using PIA codes.
- leereeves 4y agoIt's not proof that Musk is using PIA, just some holes in the evidence that he is not. I think further discussion would just be speculation without additional evidence.
