Zoom in and see if you can spot the Vulcan

In the circle

Lining up now by the looks of it..

[red_slr]

Looked like it used about half the runway! (empty I guess)

[red_slr]

Wonder what route they will take given a failure will mean 2 engines left..

The normal route would be over Greenland and just south of Iceland anyway I should imagine so probably no change.

Edit: looks like just to the south of Greenland

Is it definitively on 3 engines? It's pretty high and fast, and while empty, will still have a boat load of fuel, especially if 3 engined...

@airlive on twitter stating it’s got all 4 running, I did think it was doing well!

Some gobbledygook of where it flew.

CYYR 2 YYR HOIST 5700N/05000W 5800N/04000W 5800N/03000W 5600N/02000W RESNO NETKI BAKUR UN546 STU UP2 NIGIT UL18 MID UL18 SFD M605 BIBAX LFPG

Load it into www.skyvector.com the flight plan tab and hit enter and it gives you a little map. Maybe change the display to World Hi.

I love on sky vector how groom lake is still just a blank space

That's a standard route for that flight, no different to how you'd expect it normally. Well, from Resno in anyway, I don't know the bit beyond.

Excellent!

Hope all is well at EC.
