Thats actually not over the destin coastline at all. That's the north shore of choctawhatchee bay. You can tell by the sparsely populated coastline and the fact that they didnt land on top of an Escalade or H3
I work in this new AOC, (have been here since 95)CMOC is closing, and NORAD-NORTHCOM is NOT and AOC. Granted could have spent money on equipment, we needed the new facility. We conduct Air Defense for US, especially avaiation based threats sexy lingeriesexy costumes (remember 7/7 plot, now JFK). The whole hurricane relief is political (New Orleans/Katrina was a joke!) The new design works well, much better then NORAD (been there a bunch!)
