Guys

This posted on another list. I post it in case some of you might be interested in freqs & calls used.


Starting around Jan 23 to Feb 3 an exercise at the Avon Park Bombing
Range was underway.

A-10's were TDY at MacDill AFB and also flying down from Moody AFB.
They worked both the Avon Park and Pinecastle ranges.

Believe the A-10's that were at MacDill were from the IN ANG, 163rd FS

Looks like a Delta A220 or maybe a A320 ? Can you put a time to the photo ?

I first saw it Saturday afternoon on Twitter, well before the F-22 activity. But it was being heavily re-posted so I have no idea as to the original timing. I know at one point that afternoon it was part of the SC contrail montage on CNN implying that it, too, was a military flight.

That's because the military now considers it a threat to national security, I guess.

I was just reading that article.. A lot of hyperbole for the Dod paranoids but no threat as Dod can turn off
mode s and most mil aircraft on routine training and traffic don't care. In fact some Dod family members use it to track
their own family members/friends at work.. I'd be more worried about TikTok than our hobby :)
