I think these are ANG freqs and not Thunderbirds.

The thunderbird use 225.3 to talk to each other in the air while taking video / pictures from the trail plane.

Hearing comms on 141.175 (AM mode)

Sounds like they are off the coast doing flyby and photos near the USNS Mercy before heading to SD.

Thanks for all the help. Bob.

Hearing them talk to SoCal Approach on 124.35 / 279.625

Yep! Hear them on the 141.175 AM frequency! FINALLY - now I can say I've heard the Thunderbirds; have heard the Blue Angels many times being that I live in a Navy/Marine dominate area (San Diego County) but never yet the Thunderbirds. So plugged the freq. Brandon gave and got them! At one point they started to really come in strong and I heard the engines but, unfortunately, when I went to the balcony I couldn't see them. But it sounded like they did come down south this far (north San Diego County) briefly at one point.

Tanker Gucci 61 orbiting offshore in W-291. Providing air refueling before they fly over LA at 1:35pm?

Don't know if related or not but hearing continuous plane-to-plane for last 1.5 hours on 241.125 in Ventura. Only call signs heard were Chester xx.
SS varies considerable. Switched to 306.6, PLEAD, which is PMR, then LA center. 241.125 dead now.

They never made it to the South Bay or Santa Monica Bay, they must have changed their flight plan.

I took off late driving to roughly the intersection of the 405/710fwy intersection arriving around 1:45pm and heard lots of chit chat on 141.175 but I never saw them. I could hear them most of the trip getting stronger and stronger as we approached the 405/710 area with the lead guy reciting the typical "more pooooowwwwwerrrrrrr" and other things as they did some maneuvers, but then they got weaker talking about stuff in the air near Huntington Beach and they finally faded out. There were a lot of people parked in the area I went to with binoculars but they saw nothing so it looks like there was a change in flight plan.

Main flight group talked over Diamond Formation freq. Air VHF. I got to listen as they passed over riverside county

 

[Xray]

Had an unplanned formation deviation, looks like #1 made a sudden move to the right for no apparent reason, spooked 2 other team members who had to break formation -Much better safe than sorry, I imagine they have evaluated this incident in detail by now.

Heartbreaking moment when I ran over my beloved puppy

Listen!’ said my husband Ivo shrilly. “Can’t you hear her?” Ziggy was outside, with the bees and butterflies and the swallows diving in and out of the shed. I heard birdsong and, yes, bark. “I can’t take it anymore!” he wailed. “The barking!” I was in London for a flying visit, and he was in […]

Were you one of those in the Ikea parking lot?

 

[prcguy]

No, I was at a field at the intersection of the 455 and 710 fwy.

I notice that they flew a basic 4 man group, with 3 behind, along the 10 fwy in San Berdo.
Formations change, I know the lead will call out his commands,
