Hearing some on 264.200 too.. mention about staying overnight.later mentioned "I'm on your left"
264.200 CH-53 HMLA-773 A-A, Joint Base McGuire-Lakehurst NJ
Maybe Choppers talking to the Ospreys? Maybe a Naval Academy pep rally going on now
courtesy of the Marines :)

There is a CH-53 #165651 (Hustler member) up off Annapolis along with two NH Ospreys who also just departed Annapolis.
Unusually good atmospherics if I'm copying some of them so far away.
1605 local seems Ospreys headed home to Quantico.

US fighter jets arrive in Middle East as Israel’s response to Iran attack looms​

From CNN's Natasha Bertrand
United States Air Force F-16 fighter jets arrived in the Middle East from Germany on Friday, according to US Central Command, as the region braces for a possible Israeli attack on Iran.
The arrival of the F-16s is part of the US’ efforts to bolster its firepower in the region ahead of the potential Israeli strike, which would be in retaliation for an Iran missile attack on Israel on October 1.
The Pentagon announced in September that it would be sending additional fighter aircraft to the Middle East, reinforcing its air defenses and deploying additional troops ahead of a possible escalation between Israel and Iran.
The aircraft include F-16, F-15E and F-22 fighter aircraft, as well as A-10 attack aircraft and associated personnel, the Pentagon said.

Seeing on social media that several 177th FW DEVILs landed at RAF Mildenhall today. Anyone hear anything?
Yes, they arrived from Aviano as TREND 11-14. They should be departing back to CONUS this weekend.
They were air-to-air on <246.125>, don't know if this is one of their usual ones ... :rolleyes:
