Rgr MAYO91 logged as far South as Ga and SC then couple hours later coming in offshore NYC area..
Those Navy E-6's keep you guessing.. I think that's what they want :)

I think Ron posted that NASA was gonna do some high altitude snow testing in Mid Atlantic
this Month and maybe NASA809 is the bird..
Their E-2/U-2 Into Savannah Ga yesterday from Palmdale.

Now descending over the ocean maybe 100 miles off the coast. It would be interesting if it would start doing the circles trying to communicate with the subs like a few weeks ago.

USS Gerald Ford operating of East Coast doing more landing checks with
Pax River VX-20 and VX-23 aircraft.. Prob hang down towards North Carolina but will see.
Maybe get out towards Gulfstream for warmer wx?
Be nice if Carrier got into the lower Bay for some work to stay close to Pax River NAS.

Perhaps the Nasa bird will be to support the SpaceX launch to abort flight tomorrow ?

NASA 809 didn't stay long now rtb Savannah.. Heard him Northbound 1329 local
on UHF ZDC said he was above FL600 and then he pushed 350.300.
I did not get a mode s on the U-2 but NASA 426 P-3 showed fine as (A51316)
There is some rain headed towards Savannah area so maybe they wanted the U-2
back before wx gets there?

NASA scrubbed the Space X Dragon Launch crew escape test today due to bad wx in recovery areas.
Gonna try again Sunday 8am local with 6 hour test window.
Interesting test as after 1 minute 30 seconds into launch crew capsule will do emergency escape/abort
and parachute down into ocean while rocket goes off and self destructs into ocean.
