Sticky Thread For Mid-Atlantic MilAir 2019

[bpittman]

140.1375 MNG. Need help with this. Recently my WS1098 has been receiving a signal on this frequency. No audio, just a signal the stops the scan. I show this as a conventional Maeyland NG frequency FM signal. I am using only the supplied telescopic antenna and located on the ground floor. Could I be getting a low power signal from some unknown device on this same frequency? Located in Berkeley Springs, Morgan County, WV

B-52 60-0058 heading toward the mid-Atlantic region, over far SW VA currently. Coming for the airshow I hope. No B-52 listed as a display.

2025- Flight of four with ZDC Montebello 284.7
2033- to ZDC 282.2, they're inbound to this area. Callsign sounds like INCH. ???????
B-52 too high to be landing around here.

MYTEE51 flight of three with ZDC 307.025. His radio works WAY better than this other flight of whatever.

I wish it wasn't so dark. Just had one B-52 fly right over top me. This one was west of the one visible on ADSBx. I did manage to get my camera to take and it's somewhat visible. The contrails were very noticeable.

2050- Handed off to 362.something.

Perhaps related: CBS News reported earlier that four B-52s were headed to the Middle East.

Will be posting series of pics of the last flight of Northrop Grumman BAC-1-11 N164W. These were taken by friend around BWI.

I live about 3 miles from BWi and I could always tell when it took off. Made a God-awuful roaring then would look up and the that telltale black smoke trail climbing out of BWI pattern.

One thing for sure these flights were no secret
On vid I see 0062 and 0006. Note 3rd Buff hitting wake turbulence on takeoff.
On mode s bombers like fighters can change and do change tails around from time to time.

As for Andrews I saw SPECTR67 AC-130W 88-1307 mode s inbound 1720 local for airshow I assume.
