Pictures below from the 104th FW. See the old demo pilot Razz Larson in the cockpit of one jet, also the old Kadena tail on one F-15.
Also see 2 Langley Double F F-22's in the background :)
Funny as earlier folks logged here RAPTOR-1 flight of 4 came North to South to W-386 to work out.
Assume they retired to Langley as never heard them again.

Error to me. <waveshand> Yes I know the difference between Raptor and Lightning. They said raptor and even tagged f22 (and not photographically). 3 screens going and distracted and jumped to incorrect conclusions because of the OMG factor. <sigh> Time for a nap.

AR-62E is active tomorrow night starting at 2100 est block 210-280, maybe some bombers heading to EUCOM?
Funny as I have been checking that AR-62 res for last couple weeks and nothing.. Good timing!
Had a feeling something was due.
A B-1 out of Grand Forks doing runs tonight.. Would be cool to see some of them run East tomorrow night.

Saw pics online yesterday of four Duluth F-16s landing at Pease with full bags and travel pods. I’d say they’re likely the TREND-11 flt. They even brought their F-16D two-seater.

I think one of tonights tankers for them headed to Pease now.
KECK-32 #58-0047 from McConnell.

Here come the Thunderbirds to McGuire along with two C-130's TBIRD-14,15.
Surprised McGuire didn't send them a C-17 for gear.

McGuire sent a couple tankers though for the T-Birds to drag them non-stop.

Someone on ZDC 354.1500 from Pot apch 317.425 enroute McGuire.. Bigdog -1? female pilot at FL-8k.
Now with A/C apch 327.125.
Maybe BIG DOG C-130 VR-64 tails code "BD"
Hear BIGDOG-1 as well, low and fast, originated from ADW. Should be an F-16; not sure what squadron tail. Now on WRI LiveATC, must be another airshow arrival. BIGDOG-1 is an AC F-16. Thats only the second time I've heard that callsign from the 177th, its a rare one.
