Newly restricted airspace over Delaware

[JohnnyRingo]

I usually check to see what's flying around just before I go to bed. Very often there's something interesting. Sometimes it's hard to explain a certain flight. Sometimes it's not, but it's fun to guess.

Flight restrictions over Wilmington Delaware just popped up today and begin on Saturday the 27th. Planes entering this airspace must have a flight plan filed and be in constant communication with Air Traffic Control Center, a pretty sure sign that someone important is coming to town. That's Washington DC on the left.

Whether by coincidence or not, this plane from US Transportation Command took off from McGuire AFB around 2:00AM Saturday, destination unknown:
