Also Joe is in the air and I'll post some of that in just a moment because it is ponderous to me.
Previous to 09-0015 taking off, 09-0016 (which was tracked to the ground in Peoria) took off and made that flight path.
It coincided with 09-0015 reaching altitude in the same vicinity.
Now, 09-0016 is landing back in Peoria.
Where, I am presuming, it will once again execute this decoy move for Joe when he leaves ORD at around 10PM and then fly the buddy-system back to DC.
I won't be awake to track.
This is the FIRST time Joe has used a decoy plane to fly over CONUS.
