It looks like the Global Hawk mission was canceled today. Tomorrow they may do a flight into either Ingrid or Humberto. The same with Sunday. These missions are about research, so Humberto is an option even though it is out int he middle nowhere. It's good I guess to get recon in areas you never get recon into.
The ER-2 and DC-8 did go out today and everything else is still on the schedule.
Tracking for those and others:

About the aircraft again:

I had never heard of the ER-2 before.
I hope everything is getting a lot of good research for the future. There is all kinds of research going lately. |
