Sticky Thread For Mid-Atlantic MilAir 2021

[Mark]

Still think some possible move coming up soon from Langley.. The other day RCH 447 #00-0180 Langley thru to Middle East
McGuire has two C-17's to Langley one Thursday and another Friday and Charleston also a C-17 Friday.
follow the tool boxes and spare parts sometimes and fighters will follow.
Way overdue for some Langley F-22's to stretch their legs . 50 plus stationed there
BTW McGuire shows KC-10 to Portsmouth NH Frday late Friday afternoon not sure for who.

Quiet day today? Couple more Dover space A C-17's to Langley Saturday..
Thinking this may be more a Ft Eustis Army move rather than F-22's.. we shall see.

I confirmed what the McGuire flight to Griffiss was supposed to be...JEDI41 worked with one of the 101st ARW (ME ANG) tankers and then went to VR-725, later that evening, a McGuire C-17 pilot that I follow on Instagram posted a pic of them getting refueled by a Maine KC-135 and I asked him if it was him that got refueled and then went to VR-725. He said it indeed was them and then I asked if he has ever been to Griffiss. He replied and said that they were supposed to go to Griffiss but they decided to use VR-725 because they didn’t have enough time.
Here’s the IG post

I think JEDI-32 C-17 04-4131 was your Griffiss visitor today,saw departing that area back towards McGuire

I was listening to KALB approach and they used JEDI41. By the way how did you know that they were coming?

1600 - RAVEN11 flight calling into Raven Ops (275.7) that they are leaving FITG (270.3/293.3) and inbound and requesting a canopy cover for RAVEN12 on the ground

VIPER complex just went active about a half hour ago so makes sense.

The usual BTV F-35s, callsigns STOUT 11 and BRASS 21. At one point 2 of them broke off to work in the ADIRONDACK and CRANBERRY MOAs on their own and called to push 17. I scanned a bit but couldn't catch what frequency 17 is ? The MTN A-10s were also up at the Ft Drum Range again, RAVEN 11.

Heading up closer to Griffiss, I’ll let you know if I can get a better signal.

It's in the database as a UH-60 Blackhawk. Database Link. Which makes sense given its altitude and where it appeared to be going.

My guess is a UH-60 --

 

[hippieman556]

If they do they same thing as yesterday the BTV F-35 night shift went up around 19:30.

It is not in the ADSB Exchange data base

PAT-392 with Dover apch 132.425 showing mode s (AE571B).. Looks like McGuire small Army type BE20? with previous WING 16,17 callsigns.
History shows only since March 26... new Army tail? Heading back to McGuire it seems from Davison AAF
