1130 EST 268.300 active with Air/Air comms - fighters on this one

263.200 as well (maybe tanker)

UAE Air Force 1305 and 1306 on 263.200 air / air


Both headed to Charleston AFB

Possible on 374.100 unless that is local based USA fighters ... maybe E2 aircraft unrelated to UAE aircraft

On with Washington Center 132.550 (from 133.125)
Just a follow-up on this - it appears the fighters Callsign was DAGGER - if my language translator was accurate off radio.

The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating after several airliners on approach to land at Washington Reagan National Airport Saturday morning received what appear to be false alarms from their onboard Traffic Collision Avoidance System.

Imagine all the radio interference in that area with antenna farms and towers on all those govt buildings,embassies etc.
Prob no other city in US with all that squeezed in that small area.. Airlines also want to reroute those choppers near DCA.
Makes sense..

Seems a pause on Ukraine mil aide. Maybe last Dover 747 cargo flight over there for a while earlier today.
Back to the normal Ramstein cargo flights :)

Here come the new unmanned test fighter jets! I guess as fighter pilot unmanned wingmen jets would be nice as say
a SAM missile or more start coming up at you so you press button and unmanned jets takes them on while others take
out the launch sites :) Ukraine war has proved unmanned flying weapons are the future.

This morning BLUE-92 from Lajes up thru UK and seems to have cut F-35's loose over the North Sea towards Denmark.
Denmark also got 3 new F-35's back in January as well.Denmark has 17 of them out of 27 ordered.. Maybe 20 now after today :)
BLUE-92 looks like recovering at Prestwick Scotland.
Seems last weeks post about F-35 deliveries RETRO-41 flight I had wrong country. I thought Norway had all their F-35's
but getting real close now with just 3 more to go later this Spring.
Norway receives three new F-35s, as Europeans rethink arms production

FORCE41 switched C/S on ADSB to DUCE41, the 2nd ARS. Also have REALM61 and FORCE40 heading south over the Delaware Bay.
Rgr Apex it may have been DUCE-41 all along as they only called each other 41-42 etc and 41 wasn't showing so I
wrongly assumed they were both DUCE callsigns.
McGuire sure has become a busy tanker base with all those KC-46's. :)

Couple of A/C F-16's COSMIC-01 headed up to VR-704 as a couple Res up there this morning ZNY 323.300
and A/A 260.900. Cosmic's having problems with 323.300 being deaf finally get them cutting thru Lancaster County.

UAF1306 Tanker going back to UK from Charleston AFB, Guess not needed in Vegas.
Odd stop at Prestwick as you think it would rtb thru Spain and the Med unless going after more.
