Seems like every Month or two Andrews sends a couple DEECEE 90 tankers to Hawaii and back.

ASY-820 C-17 #A41-208 was crossing Pond from Charleston but has now done U-turn
over Newfoundland and headed back here. Guess will stop at Dover for repairs?

I don't know what this is flying out of and around Dover.. Flies low and does 300 knots.
Heard someone on Dover tower 279.625.Acts like Texan 2 trainer. Callsign RIDER-70.
Seems a C-17 with his ADSB off.

Odd Russian transport from Moscow headed towards Syria area.Maybe related to govt overthrow.
