I was just about to come on and post that, heard it loud and clear including instructions to call the FAA. Someone's going to have a bad night.

SPUR-79 62-3578 turned more Northerly over Long Island maybe headed for AR-212 0r AR-62.
Took him a while to climb up to FL350 so maybe loaded up with fuel.
2025 Tanker TABOO-23 cleared to rtb had 6 total contacts on Huntress 260.900
2028 NOBLE-21 flight of two req clearance to Langley AFB on ZDC 307.250
Rare you hear F-16's going to Langley.. Maybe their new future home? These guys keep talking about
moving up this way by the Winter.
Earlier today caught tails of NOBLE 11,12 #87-0277 Ex DC ANG and #88-0400 100th FS Alabama

Out of ADW yesterday --
www.thedrive.com
E-4B “Doomsday Plane” Just Made A Highly Unusual Visit To Secretive Tonopah Test Range Airport (Updated)
Seldom, if ever, do E-4Bs visit Tonopah Test Range Airport in Nevada and, in this case, the Secretary of Defense might have been onboard.

Do you have a source on 87-0277 being an ex DC Viper? I just saw it a month ago still wearing its special DC markings...
Scramble shows as DC ANG but last update was in 2019. Assumed with 100th FS now.
Maybe the 100th FS moving to Andrews?
I think they went into Langley also.404 Page not found (scramble.nl)

Rgr now looks to be headed to the west end of AR-62 right on course.
Reminded me of Sunday noon local Alaska Elmendorf has Space A flight to Aalborg Denmark.
Sounds like a Polar flight near the North Pole
Looking at map Aalborg Denmark is a bit North of Anchorage but very close.

2205- SPUR 79 and RCH 674 both cleared to FL290 then to ZUL Low 132.775. LiveATC ZUL Low sector feeds are down so won't get the AR clearance.

Not sure if anyone knows this from the DC area… Biden is traveling to KABE on Wednesday and I’m wondering if I should wait at the airport tomorrow to see if the C-17 tango flight and HMX comes in? There’s a Space-A flight scheduled into KADW tomorrow from KCHS, maybe that might be it? If anyone has a clue that’d be great. Thanks!
I'm no expert here, but I wouldn't expect tomorrow, more than likely Monday or Tuesday. That's just my thoughts.

HMX-1 usually sends the Blackhawk/Sea King in 3-4 days in advance. I know in Detroit, It arrived here on a Friday/Saturday(In May) ahead of his Tuesday(In May) arrival, then the "Reach Tango" flights came in 1-2 days prior then one usually comes the day he arrives to scoop everything up.
Rgr that HMX-1 Ospreys always hit KILG on the Thursday before weekend Friday arrival.
C-17's a at least two days before arrival locally in the US.
Off topic but well done engine out landing

Guys,
Just passing this on for your consideration. I turned up from one of the Florida listeners in a discussion on another list of the aperiodic activity with the E-4B NAOCs and some of the Andrews C-32s.
Since a lot of this activity seems to take place in our areas, here is a scanner system I made for COG (Continuity of Government).
Just some frequencies that could be active, or have had E-4, E-6 and SAM air-air related activity before.
142.7500 AM
142.7500 NFM (auto mode for P25 too)
166.5125 P25 Sierra
225.6000 E-6B / E-4B air-air
225.4750 FM "JACK 5" (Florida log)
233.7000 Tinker E-6 Ops
234.9500 EAM
277.8000 Fleet Tac (E-6B air-air)
277.9000 E-6B air-air
292.8000 SAM air-air
305.6000 Raymond 24
375.4750 FM "JACK 5" (Florida log)
450.4750 FM "JACK 5" (Florida log)
The “Florida log” came from a monitor here that heard these on the same day last Nov that Jack saw the E-4 and E-6 following each other near Jacksonville, FL. The date and timing of the radio traffic match Jack seeing them near Jax.
The call sign was JACK 1 and JACK 5. CTCSS 151.4 was used on all three.
Comms were nothing more than “switch 375.475” and same for 450.475. Very brief.

In the list is posted earlier it had 225.6000 E-6B / E-4B air-air. Not sure, but since 225.6 is being used by the !st Helo Sqdn at Andrews, although could be local COG related since one of the 1st Helo Sqdn missions is to get Gov"t & Military VIPs out of town when the s--t hits the fan.
Couple more NOBLES-11 coming North on ZDC Snow Hill 236.825. Prob out of Langley.
P-51D N151AM departed Georgetown coming NW,looks like headed towards Harrisburg Pa.
10:27 NOBLE-01 flight looking for pre-clearance back to Langley ZDC 307.250
NOBLE-01 calling their ops at Langley on 226.750 asking about the wx,we are 15 minutes out

Used to have F-16s at Langley before. Remember the NODAKs from North Dakota & the MAPLES from Vermont. They used to be at Langley for long TDY's to provide air defense coverage for our area. In fact, I think some of the Langley F-16s were part of the 9-11 response.
