Still, an abrogation has at least for the moment been averted, and the two sides still seem willing to try to inch closer together. If a deal can eventually be reached, the administration will get its anti-missile tests, and the Russians will keep a ghost of an ABM treaty. Such a compromise seemed impossible a few months ago. Of course, Mr Putin's decision to move closer to the West after September 11th is intended to bring Russia something in return. The missile cuts are one part of that (though whether they are enough to placate his military critics at home remains to be seen).

Conceivably, problems were caused by the wake of a plane taking off a couple of minutes earlier, but this is not supposed to be a danger when both aircraft are of a similar size.
