 This got me as well ( I checked to see if it had arrived), then I looked again at the message.
Due to arrive tomorrow morning (it departs Barksdale tonight).
Hope this helps.

If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

The Atlas flight is tracking of FR24 and is currently (05:45) heading north east over Maine. They left Barksdale approx 3 1/2 hours late :roll: , with an E.T.A. at Fairford of 10:43 this morning.

Hope this helps, Steve

 Scramble has just posted an update with 6-8 still being the figure being deployed. I guess all we can say is see what happens, and roll on the next few weeks!
I cannot find this update, where did you find this on Scramble?
