Mid-Atlantic (and beyond) MilAir 2025

[Maryland_avgeek]

Hello I’m new here, was curious if anyone knew how often Mil aircraft fly into KSBY for patten work? I live about a half an hour away from the airport and would like to go spotting there. I know they have an ILS aswell and sometimes they run the fighters there but not on a common occurrence. The DEANG C-130’s have also slowed down their flying to there too, haven't seen them in forever.

Three F-15's and three F-35's performed today's White House flyover, unsure which base they flew in from.

Did anyone see any indication that the Saudi's flew in their own Mercedes for the visit? I heard this on Fri.

The F-15’s are Echo models so they more than likely flew up from seymour johnson, im not sure about the F-35’s though.

there is a very very shiny Mercedes parked at the WH portico. It does not have a USSS license plate

Last saw this freq reported as 4FW F-15E's doing Noble Eagle with POTUS at Camp David (8/2023). Looks like from other posts the flyover included F-15E's

I have 314.375 in my scanner as a SJ Air to air for unknown unit.

Would make sense as DECEE21 is returning to ADW from a trip down near SJ

Occasionally acft from PAX (mostly Test Pilot School) will do T&G at Salisbury. Also the Coast Guard MH-65Es will stop over at Easton. They like to have lunch at the Sugar Buns restaurant there.

Hard to say but usually when using 91 suffix it is a cross country flight..
It was over Central Pa last heard so prob going as far as it can before a fuel stop.

FROZN-27 didn't go far just up to Long Island.. Would seem odd to C-17 shuttle a chopper up there
but you never know... Maybe was for something else but seems silly to use an Alaskan C-17 for the job.
See where it goes next.
