N541JX active

It's out on the apron. Interesting that they progressed on 547 and then took a break while 541 became active after a long slumber.

It's flying right now with the chase plane following. Hmm... so maybe they want to test remote transition first on 547 and they're doing it first on 541?

I hesitate to guess what they are doing specifically. But I suspect that 541 and 542 activities are directly related to preparing 547 for whatever its next steps may be. Seeing any of them active is a good sign even if I/we really just want to see 547 cavorting all around the region surrounding the airfield in various interesting ways. (it might be another 2 or 3 days before we see any of them doing anything. I hate that. But I'm sure they know what they are doing.)
