Helicopter N554AC, which is frequently used for Dragon Splashdown Recovery operations, has taken off from Dallas, TX and is heading West.
No flight plan filed, but if it ends up landing near Los Angeles, it may be a significant clue about upcoming plans for Crew-11's return.
The Dragon Recovery ship Shannon is on the berth at the Port of Long Beach.
The accompanying fast boats (pink dots) have been in the water moving around, but training happens all the time so isn't proof of anything.
