CRICK45 (19-46007), CRICK46 (15-46070) rtb McGuire after working with WI ANG F-35s tonight. On their way to the F-35s, CRICK46 picked up NORSE17 (E-3 76-1604) for A/R over Pittsburgh/Ohio area. At 2218 local it looks like CRICK45 is passing gas to CRICK46 over Lake Michigan.

Yeah 610 keeping McGuire tankers busy.. That USAF Brass praising McGuire 305th on recent visit I posted.. reading between the lines says..
Since you guys have 24 new tankers get ready for lots of work.. Nice catch! :)
.
2322 local CRICK-46 inbound McGuire CP 237.150 reports alpha 3 for wing bleed air problem.
2325 CRICK-45 inbound alpha 2 for underwing light out..
I don't get miltary lights base or airborne.. Seems always light bulbs always going out.
Today we got fancy new LED lights that never burn out yet seems mil planes and airports always have burnt out lights.

Posted on another list. Some HF comms from the recent (Tues 8 Oct) B-52 activity.

TURF 12 (B52; labeled as such on adsb sites) was captured on ADSB Exchange in the 1600z-1700z window this UTC day being possibly refuelled by two tankers over water east of the UK, and seen headed northwest until he disappeared over the east coast of northern Scotland.

11175.0 was active at 2040z and 2046z with RED RIVER (fair levels) calling TURF 12 for a radio check. TURF 12 (unheard to split seconds of audio in noise floor) eventually worked RED RIVER for radio check. At 2049z RED RIVER worked TURF 12 (unheard) and RED RIVER stated "confirm JU number" and perhaps "5065 BAD DELTA" (weak/broken; presumed satcom chatter). At 2110z RED RIVER called TURF 11 (suggesting a "flight" of B52s involved) and eventually raised TURF 12 (fair to unheard; deep fading) to discuss TURF 11 and various.

11175 TURF 12 B-52H (5th BW), Calling MAINSAIL, USB, 08OCT24 1908Z

Requested relay to RED RIVER (Barksdale), Our ETA at MINOT is 00:30z, we are currently at 45 West, and are West bound at this time. Was plotting as 24Bit hex AE5879 60-0018 earlier.
