Navy Scraps P-8 Poseidon That Ran Off The Runway In Hawaii Two Years Ago
The P-8A had suffered extensive damage in the mishap, which was compounded further by sitting in salt water for roughly two weeks.www.twz.com
Thanks Mark. I did miss your post, sorry. Last summer they did the same. They rotated flights to come up and play. I still don't know where the DAGGERs came from. Possibly they flew out of Pease but I have not heard of any spotters reporting them there. Without my ATC comms, I can't answer that. Hopefully tomorrow will yield better results.Nice log Ed. Yeah you may have missed my morning post today as caught the Ravens headed up that way
towards NH.I missed the Wardogs yesterday but prob thought they were heading to Duke MOA instead of Yankee North
Ravens did mention A/A about another possible flight come Thursday as well up that way.. Not sure. Its is sort of a last hurrah for those guys as in a couple months may be all disbanded...
Will try and keep ear out tomorrow am.

Maybe Ron, that would explain why I didn't hear their A-A as I wasn't scanning Langley freqs. Thanks, I'll turn them on.Ed,
Maybe the Daggers are from 7th FTS (T-38s) at Langley?
DAGGER is also used by the VT ANG F-35s. Were you montoring their A-A freqs ? I checked the LiveATC archives in the area during that time and while I did hear WARTHOG 1 entering and exiting Yankee I couldn't find any DAGGER flights working ATC ? Any chance you can share some of the comms you caught on 238.250 ? Might help ID the type ?Maybe Ron, that would explain why I didn't hear their A-A as I wasn't scanning Langley freqs.
I'll check the recording again tonight. I always record their most common A-As but not the entire slew of VT freqs. I don't remember hearing that distinct F35 radio sound. Thanks for trying to solve who they were. I'll post a link to recording later this evening. Unfortunately, I'm at work right now.DAGGER is also used by the VT ANG F-35s.
