V-22 in flight was visible on the KPHL livestream at 17:48 local

2 VH-3Ds and 3 MV-22Bs arrived KPHL ~14:30 local, prior to AF1 (82-8000) arriving 27R, for transport to the Northeast Philly LZ. The VH-3Ds overflew the field, turned to the NE and then landed on the ramp, nearish to the 35/27R intersection. The 3 MV-22Bs landed straight in 35. VH-3Ds were 159357 and 159359. MV-22Bs were 168335 and 168689. Didn't catch reg on the third.

Good evening all,


Great news! Days ago I tracked a C-5M callsign RCH 4070, took off on an early sunday morning from Minot AFB heading to Ramstein AB, from Ramstein AB it took off to Al Udeid AB. A strong indication that the BUFF's will be from Minot AFB flying combat sorties in the CENTCOM AOR for the next 6 to 9 months.

Love to see bombers downrange again, it has been a while.

I assume the BUFF's will use MYTEE or GRIMM callsigns for their ferry flights.

LIVID 11 flt B-52H, refueling with SKATER 31 flt KC-46 on the AR62E track. LIVID 11 flt did radio checks on HF before startup @ Minot AFB.

They will be flying all the way down to Al Udeid AB, so there's a chance they will pop up on flight tracking websites.

~2055 local 2x TIS-B targets off KWRI with SKATER33.
Earlier tonight on Acars showed
SKATR-31 #21-46089 KWRI to KWRI so assume topoff tankers.
SKATR-32 #20-46075 22 ARW.
Montreal Ctr readback SKATR-31 says LIVID flight will be total of 5 aircraft with the 3 tankers.
Guess sent a spare tanker along SKATR-33. Guessing LIVID-11 flight will make for Gibraltar and Med after A/R
then will tank again there.
