I use this site for moonrise/moonset

https://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/usa/tampa

The moon becomes visible for me over trees about 1 hour after moonrise. The sun must still be up in order to illuminate the plane or bird.

This plane was to my east, circling around over the bay to land at TIA from the south. In the next couple of days, the the moon will still be up in the west as the sun comes up in the east, and I should get some opportunities to catch arriving or departing flights to my west around 6:00am and later.
