Thanks for filing in the blanks Mark. At 1:10PM local, I had captured an AXMAN flight on recording while I was at work and was wondering why MD A-10s were up here. I logged AXMAN on 269.475 working ZBW for an IFR pickup to KMTN FL190-220 block. Hope they come up here more often. I remember last summer they came up and stayed a few days in Portland while working in Yankee MOA. That would be nice if they do it again!

WIZARD is VPU-2; the squadron moved to NAS Jax and they’re converting to P-8s (they still have a detachment in Hawaii flying the P-3s for a few months).

Should be using one of those “tactical” hex codes in the AE6xxx range.

I wonder what these guys are up to. tar1090
Squawk code 4205.

There was a different blackhawk out of the same area a few days ago that flew up the Delaware River, then up the Schuylkill River to Valley Forge area in PA.

Presumably Delaware National Guard?
