Coast Guard helo from AC to Scranton... Potus visit soon?

I was out but on tape heard nothing of those Florida F-16's returning to KACY.
MAKO-11 was starting descent with Harrisburg from FL-240 which is normal for the Duke MOA but last I heard from them.
Maybe hanging up North for now?

Probably all it said was Phily AREA.

On Saturday, the President and the First Lady will travel to the Philadelphia area, Pennsylvania.
In the evening, the President and the First Lady will return to Wilmington, Delaware where they will remain over the weekend.

In other news, is someone getting a new plane?

6 departed ACY this morning. 7 makos and one spad. You sure MAKO wasn’t a flight of 4?

Also do you know if they’re returning ACY after the sortie?

They came back, all 6 of them. SHARK21 flight of 2 did a left overhead break then full stop then MAKO11 flight of 4 did a couple missed approaches before full stop.

Strange never hear them inbound only outbound on UHF.
For the afternoon sortie 1430 local SHARK-21 flight of two climbing up enroute to VR-704 aka Duke MOA followed by
MAKO-11 flight at 1440 local didn't get a count on them just said "following SHARK two ship".

MAKO-11 back inbound A/C push over to ZDC Millville 125.450 via DQO Dupont vortac.
No wonder don't hear them normally as they like VHF for ATC at times it seems. Sure not like our local F-16's.
Had some A/A coms with a 21 flight on 292.125 regular NJ ANG freq.
1548 local MAKO-11 flying VFR on ZDC 127.700

Nice log! ..Searching database and only recent addition to 93rd FS was 85-1468 formerly with 301FW/457th FS Tx ANG. :)
The 301 FW is moving to F-35's as well.
Mistake on my earlier post.. freq 292.125 is ZNY Lancaster County area low.Not an A/A freq.. Don't get that one often.
So far no A/A logged yet on these sharks. Looks like exact same schedule for Tomorrow as well up at the Duke.
