1528- Reach 469 (C-17 # 96-0006 167th AS WVA ANG Martinsburg) working Mountaineer CP (297.9). w/inbound msg.

1545- Looks like the CAP has shifted from the Blue Hen to the Compton. Maybe due to wx or maybe POTUS was at the beach house and has gone back to Wilmington?

I think they just shifted CAP to COMPTON area which is SW of Wilm area to avoid bad wx.
They stayed in area all day so no beach trip.. Just heard them roar over Cecil County a bit ago.
They acquired a couple targets today but only tracked so no chases so far.
Tanker chatting on boom 247.050 about wx worries and may have to move again.
NOBLE-11 went home to Langley and 21 taken over.
1727 Tanker on 260.900 with NOBLE moving CAP again to NW READING airspace block 250- 270 as wx up here is good.

1750- HOBBY 29 lifted off again from LGA. This C-130 has been based at LGA for a few weeks. As someone suggested a few days ago, might be Navy Leapfrog parachute demo team doing practice jumps.

Any idea where the different airspace is?

Not far maybe shift 5-10 miles at most. Just heard loud F-16's ovefly me but at FL 230+ small grey jets and hazy skies
never show.. Too low for contrails and too high to spot :(
2015 local CAP over NOBLE 21 flight back enroute Langley ZDC 257.700. Say "will see you tomorrow"!
