Early afternoon

346.250 - "... NIGHTHAWK-31 on 346.25"

I'm guessing it was using it as Quantico SUA. A first hit for me.

Does anyone have an idea of what Special Use Airspace (SUA) at Quantico would mean or look like on a chart? I've tried searching around.
I'm gonna take a look at NOTAMs as well.

I see Demo MOA 1, 2, and 3 are right there adjacent to the West of KNYG with the Restricted areas.

Per Ron's list:
346.250 A-A 104th FS MD ANG Martin State (KMTN) & USMC AR
346.250 MCAF Quantico VA SUA

 

[Bearcat15]

Hearing some activity on 260.900 and 231.625 now, guess the CAP is up.
