This doesn't happen if you are flying in what the controllers consider the "local area". You have to be flying to a destination where you will have to be handed off to another controller before that will happen. At my airport, the local code is 03XX, if I get an 03 code, I know it will not be tracked. If it is another code it will show up.

If you file and execute an IFR flight plan, it will usually show up. If you fly without a flight plan and just ask for advisories, it depends on what the controllers do with your information whether you really show up or not. I bet Ron Galbraith could provide some insight. Colyn On Nov 11, 2013, at 10:37 AM, wrote: Dear subscribers, On 11/9/2013 I flew from 5G7 (Ohio) to MYR (South Carolina) and back on the same day. I had a great tailwind at FL230 going south and I recall seeing ground speeds up to 315 kts at one point. When I try to look up the flight on flightaware I just see the slow flight coming back - the fast flight going south is missing. I recall that this happened at least two more times so far: The flight going somewhere with a strong tailwind and ground speeds >300kts is missing and the flight back on the same day is there. Is this just a coincident or has someone else experienced something similar?
