They took off from England, as I understand it. What airspace are they going to traverse to get to Iraq?

Israel and Jordan, I should think.

>> What airspace are they going to traverse to get to Iraq?<<

Excellent question. Epstein suggested maybe Jordan, which would mean either flying over Israel or Egypt first. All three have been supporting us.

The alternative is Georgia and Iran. Georgia and Armenia are listed as supporting us. Iran may be one of those countries that is helping us behind the scenes, but hard to imagine Iran openly giving us overflight rights.

Or - and I am not being serious - fly over Turkey without their permission.
