KEEHO waypoint right in the middle of Lake Erie so makes sense Canada comment.

KEEHO waypoint | OpenNav

They did mention flying down the middle of Lake Erie. That I forgot to put in the post.

Thanks for the info.

Odd Chuck when you plug in KEEHO on OpenNav there are actually two of them listed with slightly different
coordinates. One for Canada and one for US
Usually the Barksdale Buffs for NY ranges run right up the Lake Erie shoreline on the US side.
Maybe ATC traffic call..

Probably using Metric in Canada! 😃

I remember being in school in mid 70's and they said you better learn the metric system
as it is the future.. Like future flying cars predicted it never happened here..

I remember that. I had trouble with regular math. You want us to learn Metric! It's bad enough we have Metric bolts on our cars, so we have to buy 2 sets of wrenches. SAE & Metric. 🤔

KC-135 57-2603 was Blue 91 and KC-135 62-3568 was Blue 92. Around 10:15 local on 373.55, Blue 92 with Retro 41-44. Retro 41 (sounded like 22-5750) was having fuel problems and it sounded like they’d be going to Pease with Retro 42. 43 and 44 would continue with Blue 91

You mean I need two MORE sets of spanners? What's wrong with BSW

(and I realise that the BS part and an 1841 specification isn't too common in the US)

To keep this a little more on topic again...anyone log the problem with ROPE31 out of Barksdale? Heard ROPE32 say they were still crossing but 31 had an issue. Probably heading to Scandinavia before recovering to Fairford.
