WTF.

These two planes crossed paths. One of them deviated northbound and the other southbound west of Burlington. I still don't get it. They seemed to fly through the worst of what was depicted on radar only to bail out and fly around the eastern edge of the storms....



It was nice and sunny, with a smooth ride, in the chair from which I was observing.

Oh, and the Traffic Management Unit insisted the weather wasn't affecting our sector. Nope, not at all.


Till next time,

PS. And as always, thanks for www.flightaware.com for allowing us to relive the glory that was a Tuesday evening.

I have seen flightaware glitches where the wrong day's track is shown for a flight. Could be the weather that day looked different from their chairs.
