Looks like the 772 returned to Chicago around midnight!

Why was the plane held here so long?

Where did the Frankfurt bound passengers go?Confused

Did the passengers on the diverted flights from DME & LHR get cleared through customs and then re-routed or did they sit on the planes until released to IAD? I saw both of them were parked at the FIS gates on A.

Hi and welcome...I got a shot of the UA 777 landing ...its in the photo gallery. I dont know where the F5s came from but did see them in formation on approach to 6R ,then they broke off and circled back for single file landing...Pretty neat

                                                           I would think that 707guy might know more about the F5s..Hope you enjoy Opshots

The F-5's are from MCAS Yuma, AZ.  They were headed to the east coast and stopped for the night.

Where did the F-5s park?  Based on the pictures (which are outstanding, by the way), it looks like the NASA ramp?

If I'm not mistaken, I was inclined to believe they parked at Atlantic.  Can anyone confirm?

We parked the F-5's on our "pad" just off our ramp at Atlantic.  Thanks for the comments on the pics.  I've got a bunch more - busy going through those and stuff from Lost Nation!
