I think this might've been Noble-61. Have so far heard him on 290.35 > 282.3 > 307.8 (but can't see him, high cloud layer I think is ruining it, aside from the fact it is only a flight of one)
I could be wrong, but to me it sounded something like Driver-61. Didn't see him on ADS-B exchange. I think he said heading to Arlington Cemetery.

The president and first lady had a post-graduation family lunch in Philadelphia before heading back to airport, should be departing soon. Pool gather on South Lawn moved to 2:20pm to await M1 arrival. AF1 09-0018 departure 1336.

I missed the Air Force One pass, never expecting them to do anything well over an hour early! He's already halfway to Andrews...

How about Drago that is a typical callsign for Arlington flyovers, F-22 flying with TIS-B hit of ~278B86

Checking my tape at 11:04 am was DRAGO-61 with Prob Pot appch 317.425 "will be dropping down to 4k.
Guessing flyover somewhere around here.. Maybe Arlington? Must have pressed on South as never heard return this way.

0925 local NOBLE-11 departing CAP for MMT. The SC guys again.

0949 local DC-91 inbound Andrews "15 min out" Liberator Ops 351.200 from Westover alpha-1 and no req for Lav services etc.
Good shape as did Hawaii overnight to Westover then back to Andrews :)

DRAGO61 was an F-22 flyover. It came from Barnes, one racetrack hold before flyover then down to Langley.

At 1355 sitting at a redlight I heard jet noise that wasn't commercial for Dulles or DCA. It was a flight of four banking left to go back south. F-18s I think. I know there was a Navy Captain on the funeral schedule for today.

The earlier flyover was for USAF MajGen Michael Kerby.
