1453- Reach 204 (C-17 # 00-0180 AE0816) calling NASA Ops (310.4) w/no response. At this time, Reach 204 is just south of Salisbury MD heading south, WOW !!! First time I've ever heard anyone use the freq.
Rgr Ron found 310.400 in my old scanner as NASA Langley Ops.. Been a long while for traffic.
Maybe NASA Langley the reason for all the heavies due there? Nah seems RCH204 came in from Spain via Eastern Europe.

They did not waste any time removing the N registration and slapping on their logo.
Rgr yeah slow going as article says 9 years of planning and will be 2 more years to
be operational with the new gear yet to be installed.. Tech advances move so fast by the time installed something new comes along :)

1410 - Strong signal and mostly readable comms heard on 277.6 (I have that as the second VTANG freq) I could make out "COUGAR11 and MOJO8501 (whatever that means) and they kept talking about "Kingston". Any information on this please let me know.
Also, PYTHON01 MQ-9 (174th ATKW/Syracuse, NY) heard on 271.1 (one of 174th ATKW tactical)

Weds morning you can watch Lockheed Martin hand over keys to Denmark's first F-35 in Texas.
Like everyone else will be off to Luke AFB for advanced training for a couple years as more tails get built.

Delivery flight of the first two aircraft to Luke AFB is scheduled for April 13.
First training flight from Luke is set for May 5.

René.

Could be that then, however the frequencies don't match up so I don't know.
Course if they are rally headed South I hear the Kinston Vortac request on ZDC from occasional fighters
like SJ-F-15's coming from offshore Va Beach area and airliners headed South towards North Carolina and beyond.

Just a wild guess but could they be talking about the town of Kingston, Ontario, just across the border ? At 15:22 GHOST 01 calling ZBW at FL220 request to transition from the Ft. Drum restricted area to GRIMM A. Also just heard ZBW working RAVEN 11, IDd as 2 A-10s off Wheeler Sack, VFR requesting flight following back to KMTN.

That's what I was thinking and you know what? I can pretty clearly hear commercial flights talking to ZBW (UCA09/ART08) right around that area too. So that's a strong possibility.

One of those A10 showing on ADS-B (78-0659)
But he is showing 78-0640 or 80-0640 on mode s. Prob more accurate then the listed number.
They swap modes around a lot those A-10's.
Someone yakking A/A 228.100
Maryland A-10's yakking A/A on 271.400...Heading out I think. Said looking for Higher.

McGuire space A has flight to Griffiss Intl airport Weds around 10am local.Unknown type so far.

Heard SCAN 04,05 out in W-386 South enter on 249.800 then 312.400 talking with 3rd flight and
seems on mode s working with a P-8A out there doing racetracks. Asked him Scans are going higher to FL250 will
that interfere with you? P-8A 169333 is up at 37k so no problem.
