TREND 31-36.

incase anyone was following the progress they left out of Seymour Johnson this morning headed home. Took me off guard as we don’t “normally” have fighter traffic out of SJ on the weekends.

none the less it made for a nice Sunday surprise

Guys,

Anyone know where I can download a fleet list (tail # & unit assignment) for C-17s, C-5s & C-130s? I have list of C-17 & C-5 but I'm sure they are not current given base shifts, etc.

 

[Dutchmil]

The F-16s to Shaw yesterday:

I think the best you'll get is Home - Scramble
Of course it will only display a max of 30, so you have to add some other criteria to break down all the results into batches of 30 or less.

I've modified my basestation SQL database to add units and callsigns but it's far from complete right now.

1820- Reach 1040 (C-17 # 88-0266 AE07CC 437th AMW Charleston AFB SC) looks to be headed to WRI. My notes list this acft as one of the initial C-17 test beds. Definitely an old bird.
My bad. He's at FL330 overflying NYC & heading north.

Travis,

I see what you mean. I can get some stuff out of the Scramble database but it's not the easiest thing. Will keep plugging away.

Travis,

Earlier (around 1730 or so) heard Omaha 1 on 125.65 tell PTC that he was airborne and that he would be on station for awhile. He reported his alt as 3,000ft.
