The altitude and flight path seem to indicate that it did not land at Groom. We assumed that it came through using resources at Groom, such as the various radar sites and the EC ranges.

One of the 737 Janets made an early morning LAS-TNX-XTA-LAS round trip and a late afternoon trip in the reverse order. Unusual for a Saturday. Could be related. When we were at the back gate after the overflight there was some traffic coming out of the gate including a flatbed with some sort of radar system. Did not look very high tech. Here it is. They were holding 1/2 mile inside the perimeter waiting for us to leave.

Nothing on ADS-B, but I would not really expect that.
