We had some Thunderstorms passing through the area this afternoon.
That may have had something to do with the refueling being scrubbed.
Better luck tomorrow.

Ethyl 55 and an unknown receiver over Halifax right now. I think they might be heading SW. Not positive though.

Edit: Snoop flight.

Ahh yes...airshows are always a great source of interesting intercepts. Usually the departures are a good opportunity as well. A mass exodus to get back home.
AR20-NE & SW both booked today (1500Z-1715Z).
After 3 scheduled refuelings went bust this week...we are overdue for some Military activity today.
Skies are supposed to be clear. :)
