High Speed Test Flights Ahead
North Pole Flight Command is planning for long-range, high-speed test flights in the coming days.
For those following along via the tracker map at SantaTrackers.net you will likely see this manifest as the sleigh moves great distances each day in the near future.
These tests, while not exciting, will help improve the stability of the sleigh. The tests will experiment with load sizes, in varying weather, and at variable speeds and altitudes.
The test pilots are attempting to simulate actual flying scenarios that Santa might encounter on his own flight.
These are new tests, done at a level never tried before. Test pilots are confident these tests will yield good and useful data for Santa.

Thank you, Elf Meg Nogg! Happy Operation Merry Christmas! Yeah, I think the test flights are already starting a long-range and High-speed test flight. They moved to Chile from Hawaii today; it sounds busier! I hope they will go well and safely. I wonder where they will fly moving to the next! XD
