Are you sure it didn't arrive?
I have seen pictures of this nice bird taken on 1-10, so it could be gone on the 3th.

The first visit of the MAA was on the 1st of October and it left in the morning of the 2nd of October. It was scheduled to arrive in the evening of the 2nd back which was delayed till the 3rd early in the morning. In the end it didn't arrive back for it's second visit this week.
