Local news is reporting that take-off has been delayed.

I think there are questions about whether the runway can support the weight.

It's been rescheduled for 1pm. People near the airport are being asked to leave.

I've also got live streaming from KAKE.

The other station has had some problems with their broadcast.

Yawn. An interesting plane though.

The way the story was originally positioned, people were probably expecting this.

Took off in 4500 feet. No a big deal. Lots of media hype though.
