Love the blog, Jon. FYI, picture of 777F just after liftoff this AM from Paine Field is at: http://microvoltradio.com/kpae.htm
(Click on the picture to open large version.)
Continue the great work.

I thought it was landing at Boeing Field? From the plot it looks like it went back to Paine. . .

I heard there is an undisclosed problem with the plane so they returned to Paine.

Looks like they had telemetry issues and the FAA requires a landing at the airport of origin:

Actually, that's the Olympic Peninsula they're flying over. Lot's of incredibly scenic mountains below with the ocean to the west and inland waters to the north and east. And the weather was great today.

But I bet the climbers out on Olympus got a little tired of seeing the same big bird going back and forth while they were having their "wilderness" experience!
