MSP/AACoPD are opening up the Naval Academy Bridge. Speculation is that the practice scheduled for today will not happen, but they are going to standby their posts just it case they do a fly-by. On another note, I have all the freqs that were mentioned in other RR posts for the BA, but only heard brief traffic on 284.25 and 251.6 - clearly they were using others as well...

The USNA is asking that the Naval Academy Bridge be reclosed at 1500.

Now they are screaming around my neighborhood, stirring up all the birds. Lots of comms on 284.25, talking about landmarks, particulary the "boathouse."

Calling lots of "marks" - cellphone tower, intersections, etc.

Talking about a tower that is not on the obstruction chart. One pilot's callsign is "Doc."
