Dr. Phil's Gulfstream IV SP (N4DP) was tracked departing Magdalena Airport (N29) in New Mexico on June 26, 2026, and arriving at Van Nuys Airport (KVNY) in California just 1 hour and 26 minutes later. The aircraft, registered to Green Chair Productions Inc., completed the short hop at an altitude of 40,025 feet.

If Dr. Phil was aboard, the flight would have landed him back at his primary base in Los Angeles the same week he is preparing for a major new venture. As reported by NewsNation and Market Newsdesk, Dr. Phil is set to host "Arctic Wildcatters," a six-part docuseries about Greenland Energy Company's oil exploration, with filming in Greenland scheduled to begin in July. The New Mexico stop, near the remote Magdalena Airport, could have been a pre-production scouting trip or a personal visit before the Arctic shoot.

The return to Van Nuys fits a familiar pattern for Dr. Phil's aircraft, which frequently shuttles between his Texas roots (Addison and Dallas Love Field) and his Los Angeles base. Recent flights show a steady rhythm of cross-country hops, suggesting the jet is a workhorse for his media and production schedule.
