Sticky Thread For Mid-Atlantic MilAir 2021

[morfis]

Mid Atlantic Milair Forum?

The following might serve as an example of why there are a few messages outwith the 'area'

0000- 2 SPURs holding for Minot BUFFs. Link - SPUR 71-72 and GRIMM 01.

Obviously the buffs are going somewhere and a bigger view is interesting.
Currently we have LAGER182 and 183 (KC-135 pair AE0659 59-1464 and AE04C3 59-1470) at Mildenhall prepping for departure. Could they be to support the buffs this side of the pond perhaps?
Information aids intelligence and adds interest (or that's how I see it from this side of the pond!)

08:10 LAGER182 flight up and direct ERKIT, 270.050 for Swanwick (globaltuners/spyservers network etc have some receivers that you could get them on in the absence of American style streaming)
08:28 Now direct TLA

KANZA95 KC-46A (18-46041/AE5F94) from McConnell AFB has been operating out of KIAG and is likely operating with the 2 914th ARW tankers that just launched with it, 58-0038 and 63-8044 in AR-609.

Had a flight of three blackhawks fly directly over the house east-west about 900' at approx. 1000 hrs. - looks like they are out at Ft. Indiantown Gap now on ADS. A second flight of blackhawks passed a few mile to the north, similar route, about 45 minutes later - now south of Allentown.

In addition, looks like a French Air Force A330 passed over NJ about 15 minutes ago at 35,000' - departed Fort Hood, now just south of Long Island over the Atlantic.

They're somewhere closer to me now. Heard them really clearly about 10 minutes ago. One of them just keyed up for a few seconds with the Red Hot Chili Peppers 'Give It Away' playing.

I just found out that a guy I went high school with is now flying the C-40 with the 201st AS. The last time I looked up what he was doing he was flying C-17s.
Him and his dad were in a GA crash in 2002, his dad didn't survive. https://www.washingtonpost.com/arch...al-deed/53efb9c4-d009-4ebf-89fa-34e87d0209d2/
