Mark,

I thought it could be 363.0 but tuned that in and didn't hear anything. Also nothing on 360.3.

Found it on the archives, WARTHOG 1, the controller clearly says "360.3" however shortly after the flight apparently calls back to confirm the frequency and they are then given "360.7" (ZDC-SWANN).

Saw a single F-18 inbound to KAVP this afternoon. Departed after 4:30. Anyone catch the callsign? I was away from the radios, only heard it on departure.

Seems 16 US Aviano based F-16's (Triple Nickels?) landed RAF Lakenheath today.
Thats F-15 country and rarely get F-16's in there.. Maybe in town to hang out with the B-52's at RAF Fairford.

In the vid note ER fuel tanks (flying gas cans) and weapons pylons are mostly loaded..
A one Month deployment by the 510th FS not the Triple Nickels 555th FS.
I guess with ER tanks can do Northern Italy to UK with no tankers.

At least the USAF KC-46A can do Navy Coronet missions now.. I guess drogue hose refueling is no problem for that type.

KC-46 refuels Navy aircraft during ‘Coronet’ missions

A KC-46A Pegasus aircrew from McConnell Air Force Base, Kansas, took off from here to refuel several F/A-18 Hornets from Wisconsin to California during a Cornet Aug. 21, 2020.
