Talking about AR

Haven't heard anything since then

Mark, Wikipedia says there’s 4 in total.View attachment 107947

Rgr seems the Bulldogs were still recently active this year.
Saw another article that BAE just got contract to maintain AV-8B's thru 2029.
BAE Systems to support USMC Harrier II fleet until 2029 (key.aero)
Guess some will be around for a while..
USMC Jets Conduct Long-Range Strike Exercise on Allied Range > U.S. Naval Forces Europe-Africa / U.S. 6th Fleet > News (navy.mil)

Also Hickam showing multiple flights to Mountain Home later this weekend.. Guess their F-15E's will
be along shortly from Guam.

1455- Venus 01 (VC-25 # 82-8000) landing at ADW. Had been doing some local stuff at Harrisburg.

1458- Devil flt (F-16s 119th FS NJ ANG) out in W107/108 working on discrete (339.725).

1500- Derby 82 (C-130 # 91-1235165th AS, KY ANG Louisville KY ) looks to be heading to DOV. Watched him working his way east then north around the line of wx on his way in. Correction: Looks like he went into New Castle DE.

Derby82 was Trek 02 which is a new addition to the 166th fleet this will be the third 165th bird to come to ILG. only one as of now has a DE tail band

1055- Wink 64 working Guard Dog (135.525) for clearance back to Pease ANGB.

 

[Mark]

Notice VENUS-18 C-32A 09-0018 flying out of Texas on test flights the last two days.
Assume got some overhaul work down there and will return Andrews soon.
Maybe Andrews crew down there wringing her out hence the callsign.. previous was just tail number flights.

Rgr Mark. Not sure, but don't think 0018 was originally outfitted with the comms suite to let them be AF1 backup. So maybe L3 Inc may have brought 0018 up to date & they are checking her out.

I notice there is a B742 E-4B flying near them as well. Maybe testing their new secure coms?

Anyone have any frequencies for W105? I’ve looked online and the ones I’ve found are outdated

I have:

277.6
281.5
305.0

I have these in my scanner but I'm a little too far away for me to hear them. If you get anything on these would be interested & might leave them in my scanner.

 

[mdmonitor]

1210- Indian AF C-17 (IFC4W21 # CB-8010) coming in from Atlantic. Looks to be headed for ADW?? Guess it is ADW, he's working Potomac (125.65) & ADW tower (118.4)

1220- SAM 121 (C-37 # 06-0500) off ADW heading northeast. Still showing as SAM 097 from earlier flt this morning.

Thank you, I’m pretty much direct line of sight into the airspace so I’ll see what I can hear

What unit/acft is doing CAP today?

Someone mentioned they were from Langley. Are they VA ANG F-22s?
