Is this weather moving in going to affect these plans?
I thought they were headed back to OK, but they just turned south on the big East/west loop they flew. So looks like they're headed back.
Probably was just easier to go back to the pre-coordinated route they had filed.
Doing weird **** around college station is a pain. Easterwood doesn't have its own approach control so it's Houston center and they're busy enough with Houston and get pretty annoyed when you do weird **** at Easterwood.
I did not know that. I guess the fighters and helos just do what they want but the big planes have to check in with ATC.
But yeah yesterday they were way out west and just didn't get back here in time for the National Anthem as planned. I was tracking them on the ADBSx app so I could be ready to film.
