As was pointed out in responses to your independent post about this[1], aircraft enrolled in PIA still have public permanent codes, which they must use when outside the US, as Musk is now (at the World Cup in Qatar).
Linking to the adsbexchange page for that permanent code doesn't prove that no anonymous temporary PIA codes exist.
You should be more careful before accusing someone of lying.

- _djo_ 4y agoYou're right about international flights and I should have specified that, but you can view the aircraft's recent US-only flights and see that it also used its permanent ICAO code.
- leereeves 4y agoThere are also gaps in the history ("no data available") of the permanent code, like: 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=-... Couldn't they have used the PIA code on those days?
