LIMEY1/2 with GK, now RTB. 238.1
Some interesting activity in the DC area tonight. Local reports of lots of Blackhawks flying around Alexandria. At the same time MYSTIC61 C-12 with hex ADFE48 has been circling the area at 12,500ft for several hours. I heard a pilot tell DCA tower that he'd rather not discuss what they're doing. The C-12 is operating out of Manassas, like several RO-6As have been recently.

Looks like his luggage is already arriving.
On a side note it seems most of his equipment arrives in C17 with the last letter of the call sign being "T". I wasn't very conscious of this tracking stuff a few years ago. Does anyone know if it followed the same way for Obama or Bush etc? (Ending in O or B etc)
Did not know that! Thanks. I've only seen it in relation to Trump so the T made sense. Any idea if it actually means something or just a letter they use?The "T" ending isn't used just for trump it is also used for the VP and foreign dignitaries, among others.
Seems USAF VIP staff planes getting new Satcom machines this Summer.2310- #92-900 right now over Charleston WVA on way home & #82-8000 approaching Louisville KY.
