Seems Aberdeen flyover was for Open House deal at APG.. Haven't seen open demo there since before 9/11 so nice
to see them open up once again.. Various demos and the Abrams tank never misses :)

It sounded like (?) ZBW asked TIGER 51 if they were going back to Andrews after the Wheeler-Sack stop. No hint on the type that I heard. They were cleared into Viper with an EFC time of 2000UTC (1600EDT). LiveATC Audio

1040- unid calling HUSTLER 57 on 259.500 (I have that as a SYR MQ9 freq?).

AF1 on the way back to DC with stop in Alaska.

Choppers arrived at Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni at 8:52 pm (JST). POTUS emerged from Marine 1 at 8:55 (JST). He walked alone to AF1.
At 9:04 pm (JST) the engines are revving up and beginning to roll. Next stop Elmendorf in about 7 hours (about 3pm-ish EDT).

Based on pool reports from FLOTUS side sounds like they flew back separately...

"The planes the president and first lady will take back to the states are parked on nearby runways." (emphasis added)
