Watched T-Birds on that OC show feed. Pretty bad camera work is an understatement.
I know airshows are not easy with some light haze but that was bad... At times seemed like 3 drunks with cellphone cameras.
Something for them to work on for next year's show.

A number of the shows I've watched on AirDotShow have been really bad, and the sorry part is they've gotten better since the first ones.

Thanks for the info Dean. I just got home and checked my recordings. Only comms I caught were on 250.3 which I have as a Coronet Euro freq AND a VMFA-224 A-A freq. Comms were terrible as they were on the southern fringe of my reception range. Bummer. Times for the comms were 1725-1741z here.

McGuire showed two flights to RAF Mildenhall tonight on space A board.. Maybe for Barksdale Buffs?
They got to come home sometime :)

T-Birds head home to Vegas Monday then off to Tacoma Wash State next weekend for a show.

1635 local COSMIC 1,2 Alert F-16's from Atlantic City took over the CAP. Cosmic called it the Reading,Compton A/R track
with IGOR-18 KC-135 from Pittsburgh.
All done now as Cosmic reported we will be landing McGuire due to something after CAP.
2025 local IGOR-18 reported 5 contacts with 32k offload. Can we rtb now? on Huntess 260.900
2033 local Phillips Tower at APG 126.150 NIGHTHAWK-2 flight of 3 Marine choppers moving from the NE from restricted area to the Southwest.
(The I-95 express) :)

Earlier this morning SPUR 81 was AR with RCH 275 in the vicinity of RAFIN. At 0248Z on SATCOM Ops was requesting RCH 275 contact Mystic Star for a COMM check. RCH reported on Twitter to be routing Nevatim, Israel to ADW. Given the route flown, the same corridoor the B-52s fly, probably carrying something restricted ?

Maybe a dumb question, but in ADS-B Exchange is there any way to have them show the "interesting" acft (DEA, DHS, FBI, NGTF etc) on their own page and not mixed in with the civilian stuff? Even on the military page would be useful.

Dumb question # 2--does anyone have any info on which ADW unit is using the Titus callsign? At one tine, I thought they might be associated with the US Embassy Support acft, but now I'm not sure.

1220 - TIGER 11 (x2) (presumably B-2s) checking in with ZBW UCA09/ART08
1222 - ZBW asked TIGER 11 if they were using AR-609, no response heard.
1224 - Sounds like TIGER 11 is using Viper All, definitely either bombers or heavies.
1225 - I got a brief transmission on 323.000 (ZBW 09 UHF)

Also did anyone happen to hear if the BAF F-15s went up? Asking for a friend.
