Around 1050Lish; 349.700, unid chatting; ??? off of our time is awesome, we're gonna look for more as we get involved here, they had us going towards PA, estimating 1430L arrival.
349.7 is an old 'Bradley Ops' channel when they had A-10s. Not sure who is using it these days. Maybe another unit based at Bradley?

There is a Minot Buff or two coming East across Ohio.. See how far it gets.
Buff seems on course for the Syracuse NY area ranges.

2110 local "Single H-60 at FL2k Eastbound towards Summit" on 245.450 from Edgewood MD area.
Shows as UH-60 #18-20987 that came out of Millville airport NJ.

I'm sure the TDY A/C MAKO's can handle this CAP as not far away..
They did Michigan,Wisc area couple weeks ago for CAP.
I think with their time winding down and all the hours they put on these jets for this TDY, they’d be trying to scale back and ensure the jets are going to get off the ground. The last thing they’d want is to ground abort and have to leave a jet behind.

But you might be right if they’re still on the hook haha.

It seems they don't have a choice, when the brass says go you go.

Rgr Mark. Only comms I caught on recording was the GOLDs A-A on 308.000 at 2141z discussing runway at Pease. Then GOLD 81 had a drogue problem where it wouldn't retract. Made an emergency landing just fine. Runway at Pease was closed for awhile. Not sure of the status at this time (915pm EDT). I had no recordings of fighters landing or passing through on UHF or ZBW.
