I presume that is the 737 taking off from runway28L at KSFO? This the aircraft demo script, which runs a repeating flightpath. Once it disappears, it starts taking off again at KSFO. If you were chasing traffic that was generated by the traffic manager, you could follow it all the way to it's destination. :-) I've tried that on occasion. It's kinda fun to try and chase these planes, You never know where you'd end up. :-) Cheers, Durk ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
