My Sis just messaged me that she and my Nephew saw fighters overhead with an accompanying sonic boom heading North.
Guess it was for intercepting a stolen Q400 from Sea-Tac airport that subsequently crashed. Pretty amazing. Don't know much more at this time.

No air traffic right now. Sea-Tac is shut down.

So many questions.

Just saw one plane come in at 10:25... but nothing else.
I live North of the airport near where all the planes coming in for a Southbound landing turn onto final right over me.

No other aircraft coming in though at the moment.

Various footage of some of the flying, some audio and some cellphone footage.



Still in awe. So many questions.

Gotta say that the Q400 seems pretty robust.
