All the flight test freqs tend to have misc air-to-air usage. There's also 122.225, 136.975, 121.95. But any freq could be used. I hear unofficial air-to-air on random "company" freqs occasionally. Multicom/Unicom freqs can be air-air hangouts also if they're not assigned locally.

136.975 is the global main frequency for VDL2 A/G datacom. Voice or other data usage would be frowned up.
