GOLD 61 is dragging two 421st FS F-35s back to CONUS from RAF Lakenheath as TABOR 31 and TABOR 32.
Tails 17-5281 & 17-5247 and they were up on European boom frequency 294.800, CONUS ones probably 282.000 or 396.200.

Hope this helps,


René.
Rene, all,

Caught these guys on recordings yesterday from 1515-1540z on 294.8 mostly chatting away, no boom type comms. Refueling must have been done at that time.

Thanks Ed, appreciate the feedback !!

Here is a soundclip that I recorded of their boom frequency over the UK, and later working
Boston center when they split up with their tanker: TABOR 31 - 30 September 2023

Some here may catch some RAF F-35B coms down Norfolk way the next few months.
Where are they keeping the F-35s? I'll be heading up to Norfolk hopefully sometime soon to check out the POW. Last time I saw a British ship in Hampton Roads was the HMS Queen Elizabeth - unmistakable with the ski ramp.

Glad to help Rene. Nice sound clip! Thanks for sharing it.
By the way, I ran into four very nice gentlemen from Holland outside of Oceana on Monday following the show. Of coarse they knew you! (No, not really. But hey, it reminded me of you and the great time we had at Jack Painter's house! :) )

Yeah I met Jack guess was back in early 2000's as he drove up from Oceana to the Willow Grove NAS airshow.
He was ex Navy sub guy who loved Mil aircraft and also tought me a lot along with Al Stern from Florida in those early
years on the Maryland Mil boards and of course Ron and Ed too and few other guys :)
I still have copy photo of his web page. I'm thinking he knew he was going West soon so he
added this to his last website years ago... Way too young for that..

Now I know why there were so many A10s at Martins when I came home last PM!

Preparing for the second British invasion.
