I think they fly to some destinations in Mexico aswell. It would explan why it's flying above Texas. This one must be flying either to Mexico from Canada or vice-versa

Thanks guys. The only reason to make me "not believe" that it is AT is that this guy was flying very low to be coming from Mexico.

Kuwait Airways has a A310 with a blue tail, and a blue stripe for VIP purposes. Here is one in Cleveland for a medical flight.

At first I thought about that, but wondered about AirTransat after.

It's a PLANE!!

But when the daily remit is multiple short hops between tiny bumpy strips in a climate that flickers from the blustery to the apocalyptic, this sturdy little craft is hard to beat.'
