The entourage just made a left turn toward Lake Havasu! Is that perhaps where Philippine will land?
Oh... now they've turned right again, around a hill and going back toward Phoenix. Truly no idea whether they are flying with Philippine or not. She has not reappeared on the map.

Looks like she is being escorted by a P-51 Mustang and a Canadian registered Van's RV-8 as well!
Would be quite a sight to see! She's getting a proper send off for her retirement!

She is around Salton City now. A super cool Consolidated PB4Y-2 Privateer 4 engine plane just came out from Phoenix meet her!

I’m not seeing Philippine on the tracker right now but she'll probably pop up again soon.

She looks to be headed over or just south of Bakersfield in the next hour.
Unlike last time, she appears to be fully trackable on flightradar24. The thought is she will be landing at Lake Pleasant but specific information is being kept secret by the company in an effort to keep the circus to a minimum.

She might be *just* in the extreme right view of this camera as it pans to the Golden Gate.

🚨MARTIN PHILIPPINE MARS FINAL FLIGHT RIGHT NOW🚨
This is it! She is being towed into San Francisco Bay right now in preparation for departure and her final journey to Arizona!
Comments on the Skytrac link below say she is headed to Lake Pleasant, Arizona, just north of Phoenix, but this has not been confirmed by the company.
https://dlive.tv/SKYTRACShe should be on Flight Tracker the whole time this time Her call sign is CFLYK.

I didn't realize it yesterday but the flight to San Diego that had been originally planned when she was going down in December has been cancelled.
Today she is flying straight from San Francisco to an “undisclosed" lake in Arizona where she will be disassembled so she can be trucked to the Pima Air and Space Museum.
I have not found any information on specific times for her flight today.

Being towed into the docks at Alameda. A livestream on Facebook from a fellow standing on the USS Hornet. Apparently people watching her were clapping for her return! #californiawildfires #PNW #PhilippineMars #PortAlberni #SanFrancisco #pimaairmuseum #Seattle #Portland #WWI #Aviation #history #finalflight

Pretty different scenes from takeoff this morning to landing this evening! I am sure the pilots appreciated the rising temperature!

Here is a capture from the YouTube live webcam that happened to capture her perfectly coming in over the Golden Gate coming into San Francisco. Looks like it was a perfect flight! ❤️ ❤️
She is on the Bay, landed.

There is a live cam in Eureka but it looks very far from the ocean. The plane will be even smaller.

Some more history. An archival wartime video introducing the Martin Mars to the world! The 1945 video features the first Hawaii Mars which was lost to a fire not long after this video was shot! Philippine was built 2nd and in service right after.

The BC Aviation Museum released the schedule for the final #HawaiiMars flight to the museum at #yyj Victoria International Airport. (weather permitting!) It will be flying in formation with the Snowbirds down the east coast of Vancouver Island. The plane is scheduled to land in Patricia Bay adjacent the Airport (at the Coast Guard Base) at 6-6:30PM. You will be able to track the plane on FlightTracker24 or FlightRadar with its callsign CFLYL. I imagine the snowbirds will be visible there too.
