Sidney Australia
HMCS Skeena Has arrived at the Port of Sidney to refuel for the trip back to CFB Esquimult, however there are reports of a EE fleet sailing out into the Pacific, but the Question is where are they heading too? if the situation becomes dire, the Skeena will join a RAN Battle Group to intercept the EE task force.

The EE ships are currently steaming south-east across the Pacific in international waters.

[MechCommander]

Thats out of character for a small EE fleet to sail across the Pacific, based on their direction, where would that fleet end up after they crossed?

[chrisswim]

EE task force on last line of direction, which was 19 KM path, would be Panama Waterway. But they keep changing. Sometimes they avoid an island group and sovereign territory of another country.

[MechCommander]

What could possibly be the EEs objective in this? Searching for new territory to setup shop like they did in Egypt during the Suez War? could possibly be the case.

[MechCommander]

The ROD consulate in Vancouver, and their Embassy in Ottawa are now ready for their Ambassador if they decide to come.

CFB Esquimult
The RCN's Pacific Command is still trying to figure out where the EE fleet will end up? They could send out some recon aircraft to locate the fleet and track its movements.

[chrisswim]

For the Embassy, Did NC provide cleaning, sprucing the yard, grounds rooms, etc. fresh paint?
.
The EE task force probably has similar ideas as NC, territory to expand in. Trying to pick a few islands in Indonesia, Solomon’s, etc? Could have you ship track the task force.sitting on your thumb wondering

[MechCommander]

The EE task force is nowhere near any of those islands, they are currently traveling in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. From their position on the map it sounds like they are heading to South America, most likely Ecuador, or Peru. Based on what our guys in the Map Room has calculated. Will have to send up a Photo Recon Jet to find the EE fleet and track their movements.

[chrisswim]

Different task force? But you ship isn’t trailing them! So where is the TF you know about.

[MechCommander]

No there is only one EE task force out there their position is This mostly a guess based on the EE fleets last known position and direction. Will send out our ship to trail them.

Sidney Australia.
HMCS Skeena has been ordered to trail the EE fleet but in a safe distance. They are departing now.

[redleg]

The EE task force has a 2,000 mile head start on you if you're just now leaving Sidney. They're still heading south-east. There may or may not be submarines with the task force.

[MechCommander]

Dang it the Skeena will not be able to catch up. Get CFB Comox to send up a Boeing 707 photo recon jet to find and track that Fleet.

CFB Comox
A Boeing 707 took off this morning to fly down to the South Pacific to find and track the EE fleet.

[MechCommander]

South Pacific
The Boeing 707PR from CFB Comox has landed in Rio De Janerio Brazil after its flight from New Canada for a refueling stop before setting out into the South Pacific to find and track the EE fleet.

[chrisswim]

“ South Pacific
“The Boeing 707PR has managed to locate the EE fleet on its radar and begans to circle
around it taking snap shots of the ships and recorded its heading. The 707's radioman
signaled HMCS Skeena that they found the EE fleet, and signals the destoryer to return to
CFB Esquimult they will keep track of the fleet and return back to CFB Comox to develop the
Photos and sends their report to RCN Pacific Command.”


The 707 has a max range according to research of 5,750 miles.
Range of Sydney to Vancouver is 6,740 miles.
So if the EE task force is 2000 from Sydney it is 4,740 from Vancouver at the closest point.
So your 707 flies and finds the task force without searching, gets lucky. It circles taking pictures so it has less than 1000 miles of remaining flight. Maximum economical speed is about 500 MPH, if task force at speed of 20 mph in 9 hours it might move 180 miles. It would take the 707 about hours to get there.
. Satellites of the US, EE, CoC, watched your 707 crash into the ocean. No parachutes were observed.
. Should we send out a RECOVERY party to pick up the remains? It is not a rescue.

Whoops maybe I should change my post as I did not know the range of the 707,
