Jimmie Johnson's Bombardier Challenger 300 (N704JB) was tracked flying from Savannah Hilton Head International Airport to Concord-Padgett Regional Airport on June 25, 2026, a 39-minute hop covering 437.7 knots at peak altitude. The aircraft departed late evening and arrived just after midnight, a short repositioning flight typical of a busy race weekend.

If aboard, Jimmie Johnson would arrive in the Charlotte area the same week he is scheduled to compete in the inaugural Anduril 250 at Naval Base Coronado, a historic NASCAR street race on an active military base near his hometown of El Cajon, California, per a Speedway Digest report. Johnson, who also raced in the Craftsman Truck Series on June 19, called the weekend "one of our majors this year" and noted the deep personal significance of racing on a venue where both his grandfathers served.

The flight follows a prior movement on June 25 from the Bahamas to Savannah, suggesting Johnson may have been balancing personal time with a packed double-duty schedule. The Charlotte area serves as a hub for many NASCAR teams, including Legacy Motor Club, where Johnson is co-owner and part-time driver.
