I have entered the NOTAM coordinates (+some intermediate omes in longitude)
into a .pnt file and made a Skymap plot of the area, with some approximate
predictions for Mir on March 11.

(Sorry - upside down)

If Mir passes around 10:10 on March 11, it will follow the longest diagonal
in the area. That pass would be closest to Baikonur Cosmodrome around 09:30
earlier along that orbit.

It would appear that the date for the deorbit is now 20 March.
