Can someone advise meaning of Mil Air pilots saying "nose is cold".
Fighters and Bombers will also say Switches Safe along with Noses Cold so the refueler knows that weapons are in safe mode.Thanks for link and reply.
So then curious anyone know the likely most common answer to the following.
When a VIP or Presidential TFR is set up in a major metropolitan area how are the CAP patrols put on a target or SU (suspect) target?
The reason I ask is I have been carefully listening and I have heard no intercepts although the WX has been more IFR than VFR.
I have found the Victor Discreet with ATC as well and am hearing both CAP and ATC
Does an AWACS support these ops typically or is ATC such as ZNY calling the SU's obtained from their radars.
Interesting. Learning.

CAP aircraft are routinely used for intercept practice by local fighter outfits by deliberately violating a TFR to test response.
