Hey all.

I'm on vs20 on Sunday night. I know that vs19 follows a great circle path but vs20 goes directly east to take advantage of the jet stream. This should take me directly into the projected path of this 'ere hurricane! I'm sure vs already have an alternative flight plan but.....

Don't forget that at that time you'll likely be at 37,000 ft so well above, but there will be a flight plan to avoid any turbulence or weather if required so I wouldn't worry.

Cheers slinky. Looks like it won't hit the eastern seaboard till Tuesday. There is talk of this being a 100 year storm here
