I will see it from my deck as it makes its landing approach a few hundred feet overhead. Plan on deploying the 'Cat Claw with a hearty GO CATS !
Much to my neighbors' bafflement.

They're flight will turn just below the southern tip of Greenland, then over Newfoundland, then Quebec, then Lower Michigan. At least that's they're current flight path, unless ATC changes it?

A friend at Chicago Center has been following the flight and providing me updates when on break(s)

Nonsense. I know how well your neighbors know you, and their sense of bafflement will be no greater than usual!

I'm thinking of Dennis Farina in Midnight Run saying, "have them met at the airport," but mostly because I don't really need a good excuse to quote that movie.

The joys of travel. Looks like a pretty bad storm is about to blow through. Heavy winds will make it blow by quickly. They will delayed a bit but should land safely with no problem.

My friend at Chicago Center said it screwed up air traffic due to re-routes around cell(s) and diversions with flights. Now the sorting begins to get everything sequenced.

This crap will blow past them before their entry into US Airspace. They're still over Newfoundland.

Riveting stuff. These are the kind of updates I check in for. Keep us posted on their latest travel schedule.
