That is neat. Wonder how the ride is for that JBU guy.

Better at FL360 than it is for NOAA 42 at 7700 feet :eek:

Right now (7:30 EDT) there's only one NOAA guy in there, a P3 just northeast of the eye, bouncing between 7400 and 7700 feet doin' 200 kts. All other traffic is avoiding Irene. I added his flight track. Looks like everyone else is busting it trying to get into the NE hubs.
That JBU guy was having a grand ol' time. Wonder how the passengers enjoyed it?

What the heck would that JBU jet be doing there anyway?

It's a very cool program. I use it to track commercial flights I (or family) was on, and of course 73M. I'd get an email w/TAF info upon depature/arrival or when there was an enroute filght plan change. The program is highly configurable to filter by just about anything you can imagine. It's 15.95/month. You can create views - I have one for my home airport, ATL, CLT, etc. The plane icons are red for arrivals and blue for departures. Here's their default screen. You can zoom on this screen as well to get more detail. Cursor over a dot and your get the flight info, right click and you get the company name and flight plan. Watched the Gamecocks on DAL8925 CAE->GTR for their road trip to Miss St.
