Shoot it down after the wire transfer has cleared.

"I want a balloon."
"You've already got one."

Electronic monitoring. Same reason our AWACS and such fly in Poland, as close to the Belarus border as they can.

Scratch earlier post, it’s lower level airflow. Upper apparently is out of the WNW.

It’s hard having faith in humanity. It’s a cross between Pavlovian dogs and an ant colony.

I wonder why the Chicoms didn't terminate it when they saw it going off course? We would have…I think.

That would be very convenient - over the Atlantic - won’t be recovered and contents and mission won’t be revealed.

My thoughts exactly. China is yucking it up big time.

This was a dry run to see how weak this country is and how we would react.
What did the Chicoms do when that plane was grabbed back in the beginning of GW Bushes first term?
That is how we should have reacted. But pig face bidet couldnt because he is tied at the hip with the chicoms.

Wilmington, Myrtle Beach, and Charleston airports are ground halted.
AF in the air with Raptors, KC-135 and a C-2A(R).

I wonder if they launched it from the sea. Would be pretty tricky to launch it from China without it going over Japan and/or Korea, Okinawa, or Russia ( not that Putin would shoot it down or alert us).

2pm update.
Fox has an expert saying they will shoot it down over the Atlantic but within the 13-mile nautical limit.
