Sticky Thread For Mid-Atlantic MilAir 2021

TOADSTOOL passing messages on the HF GCS. Sounds like a different guy beginning a new message. Training?
Comms were really weak on 11175, just enough to know something was happening and to check the other freqs. Good on 4724.

Wondering if anyone happened to see/log/monitor a flight into ADW last night about 6pm, Reg 10001, Hex 71BC65, Callsign KAF001, B744? Plane is currently on the ground at ADW.

The President of Korea snuck in on us and I missed it. Thought it interesting that the majority of the North American leg was over Canadian air space and not the US.

My NJ site caught him at 17:45 GMT yesterday. Flew nonstop so the great circle route would take him more over Canada then the USA. Basically straight down from the North Pole area. Similar to this nonstop flight to Dulles from Seoul currently in process.

Saw a bunch of Phoenix jets the other day in and out of McGuire.. Was wondering..
Another inbound today scheduled N549PA but seems more like a regular shuttle.
Course if you ever been up I-295 in New Jersey you have seen the "Cornfield Cruiser" in middle of no where.
