http://flightaware.com/live/flight/RJA6103Thought they might be bringing in a water machine. Nope. Strange flight. Royal Jordanian 787 flying in from Madrid. I read where a desalination unit was being brought in from Spain from company called Veolia. https://www.veolia.com/en/hurricane-irma-saint-martin-saint-barthelemyIf so, interesting logistics. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" />

One unit destined for St Martin came into Pointe-a-Pitre on an Antonov 3 days ago. I can only guess that it will go to St Martin via barge. Three pieces, a 40-foot container and two 20-foot containers, make up a unit capable of producing up to 700 cubic meters per day (185,000 gallons) of potable water. It's supposed to be online by 9/25, but that schedule may not account for Maria's impact

Imfigured a 787 wasnt a good hauler of something that sounds big. Good call on the antonov. Here is the real scoop on787. I wasnt even close! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" /> http://en.ammonnews.net/article.aspx?articleno=35983#.Wb-z69EpChA
