Why would terrorists
use incoming foreign planes?
No on-board fuel left!

The pilot better not do anything funny or they're 'toast'.

[Yaelle]

Is this standard now for this daily flight, or is something special about today's?

[crabbie]

Flight Tracker found at Cheap Tickets site shows it over Idaho.

Cybercowboy formatted it, and still beat us both.

When I posted that, I didn't know they had delayed the flight by 2 hours. I had just said 6:05 because I had confused Pacific and Central times. The flight was originally scheduled to land at 4:05 pacific.

I'm glad to know that Air France is getting a "warm welcome" whenever they enter our airspace.

Karl...hnow do you get to the map? I got the data from the site...

[baltodog]

They could be ENVO's and are therefore concerned about the conservation of fuel....

[CyberCowboy777]

We could post it again for good measure? lol!
