Goes with the story - Loon - most people may not have heard or seen one, and they do fly...but usually not on Delta :-)

Curiously I noted the omission of the idiots name that was arrested.

Was it a give-away type name, Or not?
Looks like I have little digging to do this AM.

#3 If it was an actual "white supremacist," they'd have had a TV crew waiting when they took him off the plane. His face would have been on the evening national news for sure.

#4 /\ You really must ask yourself, if not a white supremacist, is it actually newsworthy ?

#5 Witness says a large guy, ~ 6'-4" with dark hair and a lot of body hair.

A yeti on the passenger list?

LACKING, BUT A UPDATE
I have been all over the WEB and some Dark Gray places. The only addition data so far for DELTA 386 as of 17:12 EST was needle found in a haystack out of Brazil. It reported Delta 386 was a Boeing 737-900ER Tail # N830DN.

Used that to look at flight history
Note: this site can be used to track flights also.

Which shows the same plane was not used to continue the flight to Nashville.

Prying minds want to know.
But I guess the fix is in and Social Media needs time to wipe/clean his past, political activities, party, donations or rewrite it a little maybe.

Who knows???
But the DOJ/FAA/FBI/??? are being more tight-lipped
than usual.
