Diamond used 284.250, 275.350, and 305.500. Solos are currently on 237.800 and 255.200. They switched to 126.500 when heading back to land.

I’m standing next to show center and haven’t heard anything from their maintenance frequencies, but I did see a few of them using cell phones to call back to the airport.

Thanks for the frequencies two of the planes just went over my apartment and I swear I could reach out and touch them they were so low.

I thought the air show was Saturday and Sunday from 12-4 didn't now it was today also

They usually have practice sessions 1-2 days before, this way the pilots are fimiliar with show box, center, and other landmarks needed for safety and performance.

346.500 will probably be used but you may not hear it unless you’re close to the airport.

Can’t say if the Thunderbirds will still use their 413.xxx freqs this year, but I think this was more that the Blues didn’t have effective comms from KIAG to the Buffalo shoreline.

Prob not. That’s a pretty good road trip for you isn’t it?
