Thanks for the reference. It's interesting that the FAA received
the call so soon after the radar track disappeared. Since the
call came from an airport employee on Martha's Vinyard at the
request of the people who were waiting for Kennedy there, 
he must have called ahead and told them exactly when he expected
to arrive.
