3rd that motion.. Those B-707 types require way too much fuel and manpower or should I say person power.
US Army already has private civ type CL-60 jets doing great snooping and US Navy has P-8A types while USAF short on manpower has to crew 18 people to get a 707 type snoop plane working.USAF taking way to long to get the E-7 type in service..
I like the old E-3 and E-8C types but it is time to move on.

The E-8A JSTARS were actually supposed to just be a test bed for the radar, due to the gulf war, they were pressed into service, and kept for awhile, war tends to do that to an otherwise slow rolling procurement.

I'm sure the wedgetail could be sped up even more with enough motivation (even now its pretty fast).

Thanks
Joel

Sometimes I wonder why the US even have fighter jets as we never use them when needed.
Taiwan Straits or Black Sea area we always send unescorted spy aircraft and wonder why they get harassed and targeted.
If we used some fighter escorts once in a while those guys would leave well enough alone.
We are our own worst enemy at times...

Had a peak wind gust of 56 mph here at Villas NJ about two hours ago. Even the seagulls are hitch-hiking on the road instead of flying.

Odd they’re using Newark, usually when Pence came they’d go to LGA. I wonder if that COTAM flight I saw earlier has any connection, maybe meeting with some French officials in that 6 or so hour gap?

 

[scottkrueger]

KC-135 BORA82 is flying over Wenatchee en route Fairchild as I type this, called STRIKEHAWK on 311.0 with arrival message. Also an EP-3E is over the Cascades headed to NAS Whidbey, the VQ-1 Base freq is 274.55. I have some milcom stuff on my blog Northwest Aircraft Communications

Thank you for your info it’s going help get what I want to listen to.
