NORAD_Tracks_Santa

The words "off course" and "restricted airspace" hold no meaning for Santa! Only Santa knows his course, which is why we see variations to his route year-to-year.

Captain Collier here -- I'm 39. And Lt Carter just admitted to me that he's 32.

1). The secret to that is in Rudolph's red nose! It gives off a pretty distinct signature...

2). Depends on who you ask!

Santa knows, of course he knows--he's known for years now! First-hand accounts from some very star-struck interceptor pilots report that after tipping their wings as a way to say hello, the jolly old elf would give his trademark smile, and with a twinkle in his eye he'd be off again... faster than starlight.

Here at NORAD we're all about homeland defense through aerospace control--here's to hoping any and all Grinch activity is being monitored by another department...
