They absolutely were not flying around 200 ft agl. Every person commenting on here that thinks so needs to turn in their certificate (if they have one). For the last ime, ADS-B reported altutude that we observe on Flight Aware IS NOT CORRECTED TO MSL!! It simply transmits the pressure altitude. Based on the altimeter setting at the time the reported altitude will be 520' lower than the MSL altitude they were flyig at. I have no idea what AEL's GOM says about minimum enroute altitudes, but they were not flying at 1700 MSL! Somewhere around 2200'MSL!
