...with one going from Austin to Detroit and a second route from Dallas to Detroit.

Since totality occurs over the US after noontime, the track of these flights puts the sun essentially behind the aircraft. So tipping the place 30 degrees to either side doesn't seem like that would provide good views to anyone in the either plane on either side. What am I missing here?!

Hmm....seems like you could fly south-north for a bit before turning back east.
