What happened to their good old Jazz callsign? Skycam? Your right Rene..sounds like a local TV news helicopter callsign.
I bet the Jazz guys were not happy with that callsign.. 😜 .. Maybe Brazil really didn't want them anyway.

Yes, very strange to use this callsign on a Coronet deployment .....
Think Brazil is happy with them, apparently the first time there are F-15s in the country and it gets a lot of media interest.

Just confirmed that six LA ANG F-15s arrived in Brazil (y)

They were down to do a fly over of Buffalo Bills Stadium for today's game, they also did a fly around over Niagara Falls. That's why they used the Mafia 17 Call sign
Saint
I see they landed at Buffalo Airport shortly after I posted above..Crew will prob get ride over to the game and some recognition around halftime. Just noticed nickname for Bill's fans are the Buffalo Mafia.. Didn't know that :)

The B52 BUFF’s were entering the Middle East with an F117 and multiple F16s

This photo was taken over the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR) airspace. Probably somewhere within the confines of R-4809 judging by what you can see on the ground.

It is a recent photo (sometime over the last few years) as the F117 is sporting the Tonopah Range (TR) tailflash. The furthest away F16 also looks like an aggressor scheme, so both out of Nellis (WA) tails.

I think that is old photo as F-117's don't deploy anymore on missions.
Was thinking Edwards photo perhaps but your right could have been Tonopah.

Earlier that PUDGY-32 returned McGuire after bouncing around Country since Friday.
Had 30 pax so assume was weekend 108Wg Medevac National Guard training flight.
Rare you hear of pax on KC-46's but 108 Wg McGuire used to do same missions on their old KC-135's.

MAFIA-17 C-5M #86-0025 departing Buffalo assume headed home to Dover.
Buffalo won a close game so guess it helped :)
Kind of miss the old C-5B screeching engines though.. LOL
1945 local MAFIA-17 inbound Dover on CP 349.400 with crew of 9 req transportation.
