You Could See the Test Flights

Elves of Sector 1 – you could see the test flights very soon in certain areas.

I just received word from Flight Command that the test flights of Santa’s sleigh will soon be headed our way. They have been over Europe for the better part of the last month. They are finally changing to a new position and they have some interesting work to do in Australia.

I have been informed that next week the test flights of Santa’s sleigh will be performing a mapping mission over Australia. I do not yet know how many days they will be there but I can tell you that Australia is a big place and mapping takes some time to do.

Here’s the thing to really know about mapping: it’s a process that requires the sleigh to fly during daylight hours and it also requires flying fairly slow at a low altitude. In other words, these flights are going to be VERY easy to see.

Follow the sleigh’s progress via the Santa Tracker. I don’t know the days for sure they will be doing this but I’m told it should start next week.

Now, here’s the important part with all this for our tracker elves in Australia. Guys, if you have the time, TRY TO GET PICTURES OF THIS. K?

It would be really cool if one of our elves out there could pull this off. North Pole Flight Command doesn’t think it can happen but I do and I believe it would be really cool. So let’s give it a shot, shall we?

I think it would help with our recruiting. We’re not doing too bad, just over 9 million elves so far in Sector 1. We need to get 19 million this year – so we have a ways to go. This would give us a big boost!

Thanks you guys!
