Mid-Atlantic MilAir 2024

[Mark]

Mark is that a new freq? I couldn't find it in the database or on AirNav site for Philly Intl. Thanks!

Rgr Rich rarely used freq I think paired with 119.750/118.350 PHL

CLASS B:​

118.35 ;SW 6000 FT & BLW 119.75

I'm sort of in rural no mans land Cecil County MD between Baltimore and Philly and once in a while will get usually Mil hits
on both PHL approach 118.350 paired PHL controller wise with 119.750 and rarer hits on that 245.450. Seems I'm the only one in past years who catches these rarely used freqs.
CG Chopper then went to KILG tower 126.000 when crossing into Delaware fairly low..

Seems though on several occasions like last week when NOBLE started chasing TOI in Northern Delaware they push Philly apch 319.150.
From Airnav PHL..(090-269, 5000 FT & BLW 319.15).If you are in Northern Delaware be sure to add PHL 319.150 to your rotation.

Was it PLF110 or PLF101? And did it go to KIAD or KADW?

PLF101 reg 0112 Hex 48D981 arrived KADW about 11pm

Mark,

245.450 is the 2nd harmonic of 122.725. I'm certain you're actually hearing traffic from 122.725 - CTAF/UNICOM Common

 

[xtremey]

1000L - ANGRY, WILD, and BULLY flights of 2 DC F16s each off ADW. Didn’t catch any a2a freqs but pretty sure it’s the standard ones 238.175, 285.225, and 319.175

 

[RichardKramer]

@1100L no callsign KC-135R/T 59-1460 on AR218 with unid; comms on 274.45

Gotcha you nailed it.. Nearby Summitt airport KEVY uses 122.725 as their Unicom
No wonder the quick switch to KILG after Summitt area coms. KEVY can also use 118.350 as Philly appch.

KAF001 B748 South Korea Pres eastbound from Hawaii this morning for NATO meeting.
Thats a big plane to park somewhere.

Seems that electric plane N250UT doing cargo deliveries to McGuire and Dover but 300 pound
loads seem kind of silly but folks in charge are pushing this. For that short range a UPS truck is much cheaper
