They're just east of Greenland

I will see it from my deck as it makes its landing approach a few hundred feet overhead. Plan on deploying the 'Cat Claw with a hearty GO CATS !
Much to my neighbors' bafflement.

 

[HappyNUyear]

They're flight will turn just below the southern tip of Greenland, then over Newfoundland, then Quebec, then Lower Michigan. At least that's they're current flight path, unless ATC changes it?

A friend at Chicago Center has been following the flight and providing me updates when on break(s)

Nonsense. I know how well your neighbors know you, and their sense of bafflement will be no greater than usual!

Quick. Paint your lawn and roof purple!

If this were Nebraska's Charter, you could paint on your roof "Welcome to Cedar Rapids"

I'm thinking of Dennis Farina in Midnight Run saying, "have them met at the airport," but mostly because I don't really need a good excuse to quote that movie.

Definitely one of my very favorite movies

The joys of travel. Looks like a pretty bad storm is about to blow through. Heavy winds will make it blow by quickly. They will delayed a bit but should land safely with no problem.

Will Turk be meeting them at O’Hare??

My friend at Chicago Center said it screwed up air traffic due to re-routes around cell(s) and diversions with flights. Now the sorting begins to get everything sequenced.

This crap will blow past them before their entry into US Airspace. They're still over Newfoundland.

 

[HappyNUyear]

Will Turk be meeting them at O’Hare??

He might have to go to Madison (MSN), Rockford (RFD), Milwaukee (MKE) or Grand Rapids (GRR) as that's where some diversions are headed

Will Turk be meeting them at O’Hare??

Not unless there is an O'Hare in Florida.

Riveting stuff. These are the kind of updates I check in for. Keep us posted on their latest travel schedule.

Better information then most gate agents will ever provide you. Luckily I’m from an airline pilot /atc family. Lol

Do you think they’ll risk Dempster, or shoot straight down Golf?

Do you think they’ll risk Dempster, or shoot straight down Golf?

After the storms, I’m not sure. Evanston/Skokie reportedly have many trees down and power out in some areas
