HAL Logbook

HAL logs every historic aircraft it detects. Each day, HAL selects a small number of the most interesting sightings, verifies the individual airframes, and publishes them here.

Thursday, September 17, 2026

Location is the confirmed sighting position where HAL captured one, otherwise each aircraft's usual operating base -- HAL doesn't yet log an exact position for every sighting.
