Tests flights Tim? What time will the last one fly?

[Shayne G]

Way too soon, I really hope these are test flights and they are returning to Richmond, does anyone know when they are leaving or if today was them leaving??

[Tim Bowrey]

Yeah Shayne they have all returned within the hour.

[Shayne G]

Thats great then thanks Tim. I was going to go out and risk it today but got lazy and didn't bother then it happened.. I hope I can see them depart when they do, just really need the days/times.
