1825 local ZIPPO-84 calling home base "Operations"on 395.100 aka Harriburg 193 SOW Ops.
Shows as MC-130J #96-8154 arriving from Homestead AFB...
Maybe pencil in Zippo as 193 SOW/193 SOS callsign?

SAM-750 B737 #01-0041 arriving Andrews from Ireland stop.. The broken plane in Zurich?

VENUS-91 C-32 #98-0001 arriving Andrews from Texas.. All ready to go?

EXEC-1F #99-0004 coming Eastbound from Ohio.

Another civilian tanker, a KC-135 N572MA orbiting out in W-137/8 down off Jacksonville, FL, owned by Meta/Metrea Airborne Mobility and an F-16 N859TA owned by Top Aces Corp that does adversary training for the military flying out of Cherry Point , was in W-122 off of Cherry Point earlier today, and is heading SW, possibly to Eglin? Yep, Eglin.

Nice catches. Yeah Meta had to recently change their name to Metrea as Zuckerberg owns rights to Meta name aka Facebook now.
Maybe he bought out the rights to that name.

OT but recent recreation vid of Atlas Air "Giant 95" B-748 N859GT that had to return to Miami.
Someone posted this tail has been a previous problem child but can't verify that claim.
Real pro pilot at the controls..
Pilot says he has Hazmats on board but assume most B-748 cargo types carry Hazmat cargo with lithium batteries etc.

Not sure about problem child....only 45 SDRs filed since February 2016, not bad for an aircraft with just shy of 36500 flight hours and nearly 5950 cycles as of the incident day. Actually what happened is trained for in the simulator and well... it has four engines so less of any issue.

Yes Terry all the training in the World doesn't make a engine failure no big deal outside the simulator.
It takes a certain well trained crew to handle correctly.. Course have heard a few C-130's into KILG with engine out and
no big deal as they scramble the local fire Dept etc as C-130's like B747's have 4 engines.
Just my admiration for these well trained flight crews!
