293.300 - pilots going air to air telling Joachim other jokes. I didn’t think they were all that 😂

 

[Madfox]

0545 PELICAN-34 P-8A (AE686E) with ZNY 133.500 Oceanic turning out to sea off NJ.
0548 PELICAN-34 on 133.500 will be going down to 15k and will return to you shortly. Spot something?

PELICAN01 AE67E3 off KNIP around 11.00z coming up on Norfolk @ 13.06z, probably be a crosser this one!
edit, should be 169559

AE6898 PELICAN13 also off KNIP around 09.30z turning out to sea near Atlantic City

SWATH 63 has been popping in the dropping out of ADS-B X from time to time, a few moments ago showing as FL825, not in a KC-135!!!

Something interesting offshore for them it seems.They usually come up this way and do
touch and go's at an airport.. Rare turn out to sea for them.

PELICAN13 AE6898 turning back to KNIP also, looks like excitement over for today, just PELICAN01 out there now.

Right now I'm hearing the same ZDC controller on 126.875, 133.975, 307.025 and 285.45. The same guy is controlling Philly arrivals, telling aircraft to change to his freq 132.525.
I've heard aircraft on 133.975, 126.875, 134.5 all talking to the same guy, now a woman has taken over.

Normally on weekends & holidays the ZDC Swann (134.5) controller takes over and controls ZDC Woodstown (135.45) & ZDC Dupont (132.525 & ZDC Brooke (126.875). I never heard him take over for ZDC Pinion (133.975) but makes sense since they are all in the same area.

Anybody catch this?

1448- Hearing some girl/youngster singing in English on 263.1. That's ZNY Azalea freq but wondering if it might a SATCOM freq. It's fading in and out. Coming in much clearer in FM mode.

 

[FIREBOX2914]

Sounds like the current tanker is having NAV issues. Fighters stating they were pulled almost 2 miles off course.

 

[MMID303]

Tanker disappeared on both tracking sites.

Back in Pittsburgh. I guess the second shift is here but not showing up.

 

[josephdurnal]

Sounds like someone is giving tours of DC from up there.

I heard 285.550 as well, the RTB clearance to SAV was via Richmond/RIC at FL230. That would make it the Irons (14) Sector, which is listed as 360.850. Replacement or spare ? Anyone notice if 360.850 is still in use ?

I think that could be it. I haven't heard it in a while and I usually had it locked out anyways because of interference. I hope it did change.

 

[Mark]

Dover space A has C-5M to Langley around noon Monday and a
C-17 later on in the afternoon... Maybe someone shipping out soon or nothing.

 

[AirScan]

Maybe someone shipping out soon or nothing.

Something going down out of Fort Bliss today too. C-17 Convoy.

 

[RaleighGuy]

Short day for CAP tomorrow, he's scheduled back in DC with 11:30am arrival

I think that could be it. I haven't heard it in a while and I usually had it locked out anyways because of interference.

The RCAG site is in Richmond, so it makes sense given the route. The other possibility might be the adjacent sector 20 which is usually combined with 14, so it might have replaced 235.62 ? I can't imagine there is a lot of UHF traffic in those sectors so might take awhile to confirm ? Unless there is someone in Richmond who can hear the controller ?
