Saw this one fly over my house on the way out. Any idea why 22 has been active more recently? Seems like a distinct uptick in traffic

Hello. There were light winds so not likely wind related. I believe runway 12R/30L was closed at the time which is why the two heavy departures later in the night used 12L ruclips.net/video/iarQCeRXBLc/видео.html

@@KMSPVideos that would make sense. I wasn’t aware of the 12/30 situation, that would make sense. Fun seeing the big birds up close!
