Loos like 3 FLAM tankers for the B-1's up near Nova Scotia.. Funny as didn't see any departure news on them

F-22 RAPTOR1 with demo team commander “RaZZ” Larson in the cockpit has departed KMLI (Moline, IL) a few minutes ago and is en route back to Langley after a prolonged stay due to fuel pump issues. There was much talk between the pilots and ground crew about best method for delivery of a replacement pump, including Larson asking if one could be stowed in a jet for delivery to MLI. Not sure about the ultimate resolution, but he is now eastbound and headed home.

Going thru recordings today from the car radio here in Richmond. A couple interesting items:
226.300 - VR-66 is supposed to be defunct, but this sound like someone delivering passengers to Oceana. All I heard was 'master base', but have caught this a few times around 5-5:30pm.
350.05 - "NOBLE 21 radio check Homeplate" - I have this as a W386 freq. Very clear transmission, so I'm assuming around FL 200 on the low end.
