NOBLE-11 flight coming North on ZDC 307.275. Sorry Ron you beat me to it..
Yeah using 260.900 as A/A now.

JETHRO-1 single T-38 #70-1566 landing Andrews from Columbus AFB. (Maybe Wing Commander?)
RCH-800 #09-9208 was inbound Andrews but caught in ramp freeze so circling area.

1644L- Just heard one of the incoming Nobles on 260.9 say he has to return to McEntire....unsure what the issue is since he was weak. Now he says he's going direct JFK.

I am able to hear Huntress on my Philly radio. They just asked the tanker if they are datalink capable. Huntress is running checks with Noble. Working on getting the datalink working. Boom refueling on 231.625, SWATH13.

Huntress told SWATH13 to start looking to the west of the storm for better airspace. Told them to work through ATC for a space to refuel the fighters and report back to Huntress.

Question for a friend (He's too afraid to ask) - Is CAP being conducted because the President is in town? Also, is it continuously airborne where POTUS is (general vicinity of Bedminster)?

It was flight control malfunction.

Dig,

Yes, CAP was up for POTUS visit up there. When he's at Bedminster the CAP is up during daylight hours.
