Fun With FlightAware: What's This Flight?

A flight from Midway to New Castle, DE... to pick someone up? Who knows? No other flights from anywhere in and around Chicago to anywhere in and around Delaware... or vice versa. Just this charter.



***********

i kpete could live with this

It would be sorta funny if two straight nominations were figured out via navigation clues ahead of time. This potential clue from Ambinder noting the charter flight in progress. Makes sense, flying the VP team out to bring in the candidate.

1. My question about this --

there weren't any charter companies closer to Delaware with an available jet? Why send on all the way from Chicago?

3. security is all in Chicago -nt

[gateley]

11. Oh. That makes sense. nt

[democrat2thecore]

2. I'm almost ready to bite on this one - FlightAware is awesome!

Even Obama couldn't stop a flight plan filing - there could be something to this. ETA in Delaware (as of this minute) is 35 minutes.

There's a private jet charter (N96DK) that just touched down at Midway from Norfolk, VA, Could mean something or could mean nothing.

9. welcome to DU, mtpnbc!

:hi:

[mtpnbc]

10. Thanks. Longtime lurker (as many are here).

I've already been accused of lying in another thread so thanks for being kind.

[gateley]

12. I'd love for Keith to break this!

And welcome to DU, mtpnbc! :hi:

[mtpnbc]

14. Thanks. And all indications here are that they are waiting for Keith.

You can see that Chris is setting it up.

7. That's all? An airplane is flying somewhere? Does only Biden live in his state?

15. Yabut, who is ambinder?

Someone safe or someone looney?

[democrat2thecore]

20. The Atlantic - he's safe -nt

[Born_A_Truman]

16. They still have to get Biden out of the house with all the press there...

And, KO can't break it before the email/text message. That has to go out first.

The best fun is watching the press (Wolf/Dobbs, etc) waiting for it. Priceless!

19. EVERY producer of EVERY news show has their cell phones taped to their chins.

No matter HOW the Obama campaign announces it, we can be certain the vultures are hovering there.

I think it'd be MOST interesting for Keith to hold up his cell phone to the camera and say "Watch!"

Keith DESERVES to be treated in a way that he could do this. He's been the most courageously outspoken ... he was the FIRST mainstream media person to lead the charge.

[Major Hogwash]

21. Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!

What a mental image that is!!

That is hilarious.

[Tesibria]

17. this is wild.

Truly -- the "Internets" is an AMAZING miracle of intelligent design.

Just think how much more info we have at our fingertips TODAY -- even compared to 2004 ... 2000.

I LOVE it.


PS (23 minutes left in flight ....)

[TahitiNut]

18. It's Biden.

I'm about 80% sure at this point.

23. Live flight status as of one minute ago - landed

[Demeter]

24. I'm Going to Be Very Disappointed If Biden Is Nominated

I put him in the same class as Lieberman--a never-was, not even a has-been.

It would be a very undaring, unimaginative, bringing nothing to the table choice.

25. What? READ THIS:
