Sticky Thread For Mid-Atlantic MilAir 2020

[krokus]

Watch also at end as U-2 lands Fairford with Dodge Charger Hemi as chase car.
Heck overseas nice to see US muscle car working

When I was in Korea, 1993-1994, they Ford Mustangs to catch the U-2s. I didn't believe it, until I saw them.

Maybe they will take team to Pensacola for a change of scenery

Sure would be nice to see a virtual show over the inner harbor!

Pacific update. Looks like another K35R out of MKE joined the group today, SPUR 75. Update as of 1730 UTC (SEP08).

CABAL 01 TYS K35R 57-1428 TYS-EIL
CABAL 02 MEI K35R 58-0120 MEI-???
CABAL 91 SUU KC10 83-0080 SUU-EIL
CABAL 92 WRI K35R 62-3544 WRI-???
RUMMY 62 MKE K35R 59-1461 MKE-???
RUMMY 63 PIT K35R 58-0045 UAM-MSJ
RUMMY 72 PHX K35R 59-1450 PHX-EIL
RUMMY 73 PIT K35R 59-1468 UAM-MSJ
RUMMY 81 SUU KC10 87-0123 SUU-EIL
RUMMY 82 IAB K35R 60-0362 IAB-???
UNK? MEI K35R 59-1448 UAM-MSJ (RUMMY 83?)
SPUR 72 WRI KC10 83-0079 WRI-EDF
SPUR 73 WRI KC10 79-1049 WRI-EDF
SPUR 74 WRI KC10 83-0082 WRI-EDF
SPUR 75 MKE K35R 61-0298 MKE-???
GUCCI 61 SUU KC10 86-0031 UAM-EIL-???
XTNDR 71 SUU KC10 85-0033 UAM-EIL
VINYL 62 PSM KC46 18-46050 PSM-EDF-DNA
VINYL 61 PSM KC46 16-46015 PSM-EDF

Presumably the rest of the RUMMY and CABAL K35Rs ended up in EIL ? SPUR 75 appears to be heading to EDF to stage with the other SPURs ? GUCCI 61 departed EIL now heading SW, with that standard callsign maybe not part of the group ?

The one KC-10 HOIST 90 #87-0121 actually had old callsign from last month at departure SPUR 92 so
showed off McGuire tracking with same callsign but later changed mode s to HOIST 90.

The other KC-10 was HOIST 91 #85-0030 and did not track at all.

Lots of practice time at El Centro for the Angels.. #5 imitates a F-22 maneuver very nicely
in a F/18C.. Crazy! Well done! You know these guys are just dying to get out and perform.The farmland of El Centro getting old.
Meanwhile the T-Birds do London Ontario this coming weekend. Sold out now.. Good lineup of Demos including two Buffs,F-22's F-35's etc.

A listener in Florida reported hearing an E-6B broadcast an EAM on 234.950. Worth plugging it in.

Looks like Cherry Point was the winner.. Maybe some F-35B's? Angels? Don't see Fat Albert yet
but was logged out of Pensacola 8/25 last Savannah Ga area.. Hmm.
Hoist 90,91 both landing Cherry point so tankers are sticking with them.Maybe this was just the first leg.
Second wave was about hour and half behind first so doubt it is the Angels now.

Unknown Baton C-130 doing T&Gs at KAVP tonight.

They are based out of Harrisburg PA and fly out of the Harrisburg airport. They routinely fly in and out of here.

Short update on the Coronet West deployments from Alaska over the last 24 hours.

My first time watching a Coronet West Operation. Interesting how they do it, pair a KC-10 with a couple of KC-135s, the first KC-135 returns to AK and second KC-135 stages out of Japan (of MSJ?) and then picks them up into UAM. 2 of the KC-10s went to Japan (OKO) and one went to Guam (UAM). Is using 3 tankers typical ? Coronet West 519, are there routes published somewhere ?

As far as I could tell.

- JEST 11
RUMMY 61, SUU KC10, 86-0031, EIL-OKO (ADSB still showed GUCCI 61)
RUMMY 62, MKE K35R, 59-1461, EIL-EDF
RUMMY 63, PIT K35R, 58-0045, MSJ-UAM

- JEST 21
RUMMY 71, SUU KC10, 85-0033, EIL-UAM
RUMMY 72, PHX K35R, 59-1450, EIL-EDF
RUMMY 73, PIT K35R, 59-1468, MSJ-UAM

- JEST 31
RUMMY 81, SUU KC10, 87-0123, EIL-OKO
RUMMY 62*,IAB K35R, 60-0362, EIL-EDF
RUMMY 83?,MEI K35R, 59-1448, MSJ-UAM

*60-0362 was using RUMMY 62 (instead of 82) with ATC out of EIL. 59-1461 appeared to swap their number (82 to 62) with 60-0362 (62 to 82) at some point. The 3 K35Rs have since returned to their bases (PHX, IAB, MKE).

The PSM KC-46, 16-46015, departed EDF to HNL as REACH 6015.

SPUR 72, KC-10, landed at EDF at 22:45 UTC (SEP09) (LiveATC) but nothing seen on ADSB-X ? Have not seen any of the SPUR flights on ADSB-X since they initially arrived into EDF ?

Actually I see SPUR 75 departed EDF at 1945 UTC (SEP09) in formation with SPUR 72, met up with WORD 11, flight of 3.
