Hi Ambrose, my name is Gianluca and I'm with CNN. This is a really touching tribute to the Humboldt Broncos players. May CNN/affiliates use this photo across platforms with credit to you? Thanks.
The first image of the airbase from today, currently unrecitfied, so it doesn't look great, plus it looks like there's an overexposure issue. The spot the A-50 was in is empty, but the last image of it in that spot was from the 23rd.
