11.11 LAGR 91 on Banta saying the reason for the delayed departure was a gross weight issue with both jets, seems both were too heavy for departure ??

11.07 LAGR 92H off the deck with LN deps 264.575 looking for the right 360 so they can catch up with the lead tanker,LAGR 92H showing as 60-0333 passing fl 086

10.54 LAGR 91H on Swanwick 259.6 in the climb for fo 240 talking about LAGE 92H catching up ?

LAGR 91H talking with LAGR 92 on A/A 360.825 so sounds like both are off the deck with only 1 tanker showing ??

10.50 LAGR 91 with LN deps 264.575 heading for MAM for the turn for the Westcott RC passing fl 097
