A brief scare with the FedEx package tracking website threw me for a loop. The site indicated it was heading back to Asia. I stumbled upon this website was able to determine which flight my drone was on by the departure time out of Anchorage. Fed Ex still has my delivery for tomorrow (Wednesday) before 10:30 AM.  Hopefully I am not wrong and it is not on its way back to Asia.

If your interested in seeing the progress here is the site:

You have to hit the play button at the top center of the page.

I found it interesting and once again not surprised at what you can find on the internet.

I found it at the link below. I matched the departure scan with the departure from Anchorage.  Fed Ex has a lot of birds up in the sky ..

Ouch, but take comfort in knowing its on it's way

I don't know what's worse waiting for it or having it and not being able to fly it. We are suppose to be 100+ degrees tomorrow.

My FedEx tracking was stuck in HK for 2 days until an hour ago, it updated to Memphis, TN. Yeah! It still scheduled for Thursday delivery contrary to the original Wednesday schedule.
