Actually, it's the middle of Canada. ​​​​​​

Actually it depends on how you define middle.

Longitudinal middle of Canada is just east of Winnipeg in a place called Taché Manitoba. The geographical centre is near Baker Lake Nunavut, or near Yathkyed Lake Nunavut. That truly would be the middle of nowhere.

Not exactly scary but I’ll post here and mods can move it

I was departing SFO Wed night Oct 31 and noticed this AC bird. Not sure if some maintenance was being done based on the lighting and truck or she was just napping overnight

@24left. Not seeing the issue. Unless cosplaying as a Racoon is an issue.

That’s why I asked the question
Was she just napping or was there an issue at 11:30pm PT that required some work

Thanks for the update. Do these messages change thru the day by any chance? Just worried about my mom who's on that diversion and they've been pushing back and back the reboarding time and now just cancelling the flight overall.
