    Looks like it's still circling above an airport in CT.

    Southeast. On the coast just up from Fairfield/Bridgeport.

    It's been circling for more than 3 hours. Some shit is going to go down.

    Looks like it's headed back to Stewart. Flew straight north then hooked left towards Poughkeepsie.

    Thanks for the update. @jetophile is out that way, I think, based on what I could decipher from her rambling paragraphs of cluttered thoughts. Maybe she will chime in if she sees something.
    Who am I kidding ,of course she will. Just hope we understand it.

    Rapper Post Malone is on board, was at the MTV awards last night

    It's gonna be bad man, but at least with zero fuel it won't be a giant fireball. Hopefully most people on board survive

    Yeah, I was thinking it would be on their really long runway. Wasn't that an alternate landing site for the Space Shuttle?

    Assuming a very long flat decline onto a lathered up runway.

    I wanted to go with this one.
    Probably would have offended someone again though
