The aircraft is at 450 ft and 131.6 kt, clearly in departure or initial climb from the New York metro area (likely KTEB or KJFK based on recent flights). The heading of 226° is a standard southwest departure turn from the New York area, not yet aligned with any long-range destination. KJFK is the most plausible destination because it is a recurring destination for Murdoch, only 51 nm away, and the plane is likely turning onto a departure procedure that will eventually align with a transatlantic route; however, given the low altitude and speed, the immediate destination is likely a nearby airport. Past predictions show a correct guess for KTEB on a recent flight, but the current position and heading suggest a departure from the area, not an arrival. The strong prior for KJFK as a recurring destination and the plane's position near New York make KJFK the top pick, with KTEB as an alternate due to recent activity.
