ZOMBE-11 returned McGuire inbound message 1428 says Alpha-1,44k of fuel remaining,parking G-1
and req crew trans for 30.. Then came back 5 minutes later and said forget the crew trans as thats a lot.
I imagine parking at Gulf-1 is not too far a walk :)

Is Nighthawk 46 a typical callsign for that helo/unit? My girlfriend pointed out that Biden was POTUS 46, and thought it might be the reason for the number.
Tat was the reason, the NIGHTHAWK is standard but the 46 was special. Just like yesterday or Saturday (I lost track) when Trump flew on 09-0017 the squawk was 4547 on the way from PBI-IAD.

Ok I'll bite on the OT: The current Gulf of America borders more US land than Mexico and we police and patrol it etc..
Maps can change.. I'm always fascinated at World maps of just before WW-1.. You wouldn't recognize Europe/Asia.
Can't see why not name back to Mt McKinley and keep rest of that National Park as Denali Nat Park..
If not for US buying it from Russia originally that Mountain would have Russian name by now :) just my 2 cents.

CAP still up on Huntress 260.900 Noble-41,42.. Been a long time since night time CAP. A cool 15 degrees here.

BLUE-42 KC-135 22 ARW #58-0047 Eastbound for Dover.. Sounds like F-35 delivery callsign for later this week.

ZOMBIE-13 having problem tanking with NOBLE-41 on boom 231.625...
Boom nozzle just won't lock into F-16 receptacle after 3 attempts. 13 said worked fine on other jet.
Gonna try one more time... Got it right this time.. offloaded 5.5k :)
NOBLE-42 for topoff says after will no longer need fuel so assume they are about done and headed back to Ohio.

P-6 did Joe B departure today at Andrews just out. New press credentials are out. Snipers look cold too.

Getting A/A coms on 387.650 at FL-250.Assume the Ohio guys on way home.

That 387.650 was scanner error I believe..
