This morning a USNavy Grumman C-2A (reg. 162140) left NAS Sigonella for the USS Bush (CVN-77) sailing in the southern Adriatic.

The aircraft landed on the aircraft carrier at 11:09 CEST.

After exactly two hours the C-2A left the USS George Bush for NAS Sigonella.

In these two hours, the aircraft carrier travelled approximately 30 nautical miles southbound. We can therefore deduce that during this time the ship moved at a speed of about 15 knots, following a route of 140°.
