NAF F-35 Coronet flight from yesterdays (Nov 25th, 2025) recordings.

1510z 263.050 NAF 313A check in with ZBW FL270 2 mile non-standard.
1511z 308.000 NAF313A calling MMF30 on Boom freq, no joy.
1511z 299.600 MMF30 and NAF 313A flight on Boom freq getting ETA time for rendezvous and discussing waypoints.
1514z 229.600 NAF 313A flight A-A.
1539z 263.050 NAF 322A check in with ZBW FL270 2nm non-standard.
1557z 269.300 NAF 322A check in with ZBW FL270.
1557z 258.900 No ID A-A heard but definitely F-35 radios.
1601z 299.700 MMF31 and NAF (didn't hear number) on Boom freq coordinating their rendezvous for AR.
1612z 263.050 NAF 323A check in with ZBW FL270.
1619z 299.800 NAF 323A flight A-A.

That's all. Nothing heard from MMF32 but ASSuming they refueled NAF 323A flight.

Thanks for the excellent log Ed, and Happy Thanksgiving to everyone here !!

I can confirm 258.900 as the air-to-air frequency for NAF322A flight (y)

They returned to the Netherlands yesterday, and although the NAF322 and NAF323 flights were supposed
to return to Leeuwarden airbase, they diverted to Volkel airbase due to the fog and low visibility.

This was logged by me yesterday when they entered Dutch airspace:

NAF313A 4-ship air-to-air <379.375> and called TIGER ops on 338.475 with codes and landed at Volkel.
NAF322A 3-ship air-to-air <258.900> and called POLLY ops on 387.025 and diverted to Volkel.
NAF323A 2-ship air-to-air <245.275> and called POLLY ops on 387.025 and diverted to Volkel.

Hope this helps !

Thank you Rene for the confirmation on 258.900 being NAF322A flight. That frequency, along with 229.600 are new to me. The trusty SDR snagged both of them as they flew near my location.

Thank you for your log on their inbound to Dutch airspace! Nice work! I do have 245.275 and 379.375 in my scanner but they weren't used here this time around. Appreciate all the confirmation of freqs.

Here are the 9 F-35's and 3 Tankers departing Lajes.. Didn't they bring more than 9? Maybe left one or two behind?
