Guys,

1120- Rider 70 (C-17) doing patterns at BWI. BWI tower controller said " that was the sweetest, fantastic touch & go" he'd ever seen.
Rider 70 said' we call that a GOAT Go Around and Touch" and asked if he wanted to see another one & the tower quickly said "Yes Please"

I guess he's going to check out Dulles now.

Going to do 2 or 3 ILS and some overhead. Says he has some United Airbus guys onboard.

I've got a new TRAM 1410 discone up now, mounted on the roof. I've gotten better reception without an amp than I do with an amp on my DPD LP in my attic.

No issues seeing RIDER70 bank to the right on the climb out.

RIDER70 giving Dulles a little show. I don't think ever seen anything do a midfield break over the top at Dulles.

1243- One more 1R approach with a left break. Then back to Dover.
Actually another 1R approach with the option. Waiting on their IFR clearance back to Dover.

I use to have a Tram 1410 and then I swapped it out for an Antenna Specialists MON-58 ground plane since I always used AS antennas over the years. At the same height on the mast. The Tram performed better. I'm thinking of switching it back. I also had the Scantenna years ago which did very well but the elements would break after a while.

Rare one tonight mode s out of Dover from Chile.
(E80675) FACH912 climbing up and into Miami fast in 2.5 hours.
Not sure what type business jets the Chile Air Force uses but a Gulfstream IV has been seen using FACH912 callsign.

Found Vid of 912.. It is a GLF4
