JUMBO09 out of Dover just flew over the house. Things had been slow in the New Castle skies - was happy to see this aircraft :) He's heading northwest as I type, perhaps for some approach practice at Harrisburg...

This C-5 got almost to Harrisburg, but then banked left and has now arrived in the Charleston SC area. Certainly an odd route...

Hello to all!!

As you know I am not from the aviation world so I have a question.

What does it mean when an aircraft says that it is Alpha 1, Alpha 2.........?

Code 0 - Ground abort.
Code 1 - Aircraft mission capable with no additional discrepancies.
Code 2 - Aircraft or system has minor discrepancies but is capable of further mission assignment within normal turnaround times.
Code 3 - Aircraft or system has major discrepancies in mission essential
equipment that may require extensive repair or replacement prior to further mission assignment. The discrepancy may not affect safety-of-flight and the aircraft may be Not Mission Capable (NMC) flyable.
Code 4 - Aircraft or system has suspected or known radiological, chemical, or biological contamination.
Code 5 - Aircraft or system has suspected or known battle damage.

May be a while for the Army ANG units get flying.. Saw a few Navy/Marine Coast Guard choppers up today.. Guess they are good.

Active-duty units must finish their training by May 5. Army National Guard and Reserve have until May 31 to complete their training.

Army grounds aviators worldwide after 12 troops killed in helicopter crashes; 'critical missions' not impacted

U.S. Army Chief of Staff James McConville ordered an aviation stand down, grounding all Army aviators until required training is completed.

Status Update on the C-32As: 98-0002 and 99-0004 remain the only two non-PAG C-32s in service. 98-0001 just passed the 1-month mark with L-3 in Greenville Tx. 99-0003 flew today to Greenpoint Technologies in Moses Lake, Wa after their almost two-month mx visit with Delta in Atlanta.

WOW !! I'd sure like to walk around there and browse.

On a side note. If you're ever down near Eglin AFB make sure to see their museum .Quite an extensive display inside & outside. SR-71, B-52, B-47, Mig-21 and many more.
