Last I heard it was bumped to 10:30AM EST launch time
Rgr guys was an interesting launch on NASA TV.Worked like a charm.
I was wondering about those 4 parachutes but did notice they were slightly different lengths
assume to avoid tangling.Seemed more like extra long bungy cords than typical chutes.
While watching B-2 flyover at Kansas City game a Barksdale Buff MYTEE 53 came by here on way over 1505 local.
Only copied "FL270 MYTEE 53" Looks like it hit tanker SPUR 86 KC-10 up North a bit later.
Potus enroute Davos later today.. There is a EB 4 hour Res tonight 2230z-0245z in AR20 assume for the E-4.
Probably a couple tankers for that one.

How the US Knew Iranian Missiles Were Coming Before They Hit
The US has operated an extensive network of missile warning systems for over half a century, but next-generation missiles will put it to the test.

I think that 140.2 might be a f16 common freq? Guy I know in PA hears the oh F16s on it here and there and I have heard old VT f16s before in ADKs use it awhile ago.

Likewise and two K35R Spur 71 and 57-2606
Last had AF1 on Montreal Center 133.225 but all quiet now.
Interesing how AF1 taking the northerly route and 28000 plus the E4B (and tankers taking the southern route).
Off topic but I think I logged a older B747 for scrapyard or storage at Pinal Air Park AZ today.

Tanker and E4B about the same altitude - so perhaps refueling in process.

Probably storage depending on cycles. Looks like it had a D check in 2018.
Usually associated with link testing out of Lakehurst NAS. Normally RC-12's but sometimes you'll see the DH-6's.
I see second P-8A for the RAF bouncing around Seattle area recently.
