Hi all,

Hope everyone’s Tuesday has been solid. I’ll be doing a trip to Massanutten next week. I saw IR760 runs near where I’ll be staying. Has anyone in the group done any spotting in the Shenandoah area of VA? If so, any tips on decent spots to catch some low level work? Been craving some low level action since experiencing the Mach Loop last year.

I’ll have my Uniden BCD436 HP on me and will post if I catch any new freqs.

Appreciate it!

Facebook Norad post says Canada has CF-15's. LOL
More likely US F-15's.. This post seems correct.
NORAD air defense exercise over Merced, California

Tanker MAINE-87 seem in contact with MD A-10's on 293.200 and Baywatch in area R-4002.
WARDOGS 1-4 and MAINE-87 working A/R 293.200 with MD A-10's say 1k each for 1 and 3 and 2k for 2 and 4 due to those pilots need more tanker contacts. Wardog #2 says tail is #78-0683.Wardog #3 tail is 78-0692

Hey all,

If you want to hear some USAF MQ-9' Reapers flying from Larissa AB make sure to check out Athinai Control South Sector (Milos) on 125.200. Usually there are 3-5 flights from 0330 to 0630 CET. Callsigns are REMIX 11, REMIX 55 (mostly outbound) and REMIX 81-86 (mostly inbound). I hear them almost every night, sometimes in a 3-4 ship flight. They have the AGM-114 Hellfire racks and the GBU/LGBU Pylons installed and fly with the ER config. REMIX callsigns belong to the 717th EATKS.

0910- Couple of KC-46s (Floss 52 & 53) heading down the coast. I'm hearing some A2A on 246.9. Might be them, but not one of their usual A2A freqs. Floss flt heading out to AR 636. They check in w/Giantkiller (118.125) to enter AR 636 at FL270-280.
Heard a few strong transmissions on 378.85, didn't catch callsigns as I was doing some other things, but was probably those KC-46s

Just had a C-17, likely from MRB cross by the house at about 1,700 ft MSL, which is a hundred feet or so higher than the house. Went off in the general direction of Wardensville, WV. This is their usual terrain-avoidance practice route, extended a bit to the south. Nice to have them back. I suspect they've been getting enough operational time lately that they haven't needed the practice runs here.
