No. Miscoded box.
The aircraft involved was VMGR-252 KC-130J 165810/BH going back home, having been replaced on the "BRONCO" detachment at Moron by 169534 (arrived 18/11 as "OTIS81").
The real 57-1419 would appear to be firmly on the deck at Phoenix AZ, not having flown since 10th July 2020 as "COPPER4".

No problem, Al. Miscodes are a pain in the arras, but it is useful to keep up with them.
Incidentally, "OTIS" is the usual VMGR-252 callsign, which was how I picked up the miscode originally.......viewtopic.php?f=33&t=190182
