An analysis of flight data by Unterbrook shows that the US Air Force had a significant amount of military deployments to the Middle East last month. Between September 29 and October 29, about 193 flights of C-17 and C-5M transport planes were detected in the area. It appears that the Ramstein Air Base in Germany, which served as a major transit hub, became so overcrowded that at least one C-17 had to be diverted.
