JADED THUNDER exercise. Aircraft operating from KHUF.
Off topic. Those Navy P-8A's sure do a fine job when it comes to sea searches. Cover a lot of water and
their detection gear is top notch.. I don't think a 18 foot aluminum skiff is a good idea in the deep ocean though.

Gonna be a rough start to Potus CAP this afternoon with all the rain in the area.
Checking Space A pax boards Charleston AFB says their Pax terminal is closed due to mission requirements.
Dover and Travis just list very little or none at all. Guess all the available heavies are busy overseas for a while.
10am local WARDOG-1 flight with ZDC 360.700 climbing up and heard A/A 139.600 then back to 271.400
Tell ZDC going Swann-Manta then Atlantic city then W-105
1004 am local second WARDOG flight of 3 with Pot appch climbing up 317.425. A/A 266.600
I guess a little rain doesn't bother the MD A-10's. A couple MAINE KC-135 tankers 85,86 offshore up that way,maybe for the A-10's.
AXEMAN flight climbing up as well.. Maybe calllsign change from WARDOG.. Ops check on 293.300

Most of that information is 20 years old and no longer used except for the wide FM UHF CONUS system.

Wardogs also on 271.4, Say they are heading Swann, Manta then HCO (?) Another flt just popped up on 266.6. First flt is working ZDC Sea Isle (281.45). Another flt of 4 on 293.3. Looks like the whole crew is up working today.

139.6 is VHF side of 275.7 their CP/SOF freq.
Headed for W-105 where wx looks better and like I posted a couple Maine tankers are hanging out.
Will need tankers that far out AXEMAN 3,4 are using 293.300 for their A/A ..AXEMAN 1,2 using 266.600 as A/A
WARDOG 1,2 are 271.400 A/A. Guess they are pairing off for this exercise.

I've never heard anything like this fro AF1. For me, not worth the bother. Takes up too much scanner space which can be used for other interesting "stuff". I'm not a techie, so have not idea or equipment on how to demodulate these signals.

Thunderbird 08 with ZBW 09 (323.000) and trying to coordinate with the VTANG F-35s also in Viper on 226.300.
If I heard correctly the VTANG F-35s are THUMPER 11, STOUT 21, and either CRAZY or CHESTY 31. So far I’m getting 226.800 and 234.800 for A-A.
The flight on 234.800 sounds like it’s doing some terrain mapping.
1118 - TBIRD 08 telling VTANG they’re leaving on 226.300
1120 - TBIRD 08 exiting the Viper Airspace and heading back (323.000).

UPDATE
President Biden will not be traveling to Wilmington as he had been scheduled to do so, per a White House official. He will instead remain at the White House tonight. No word on weekend travel.
Sort of off-topic but interesting DVIDS photo...
403rd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron crew chief at Keesler Air Force Base, Miss., works to replace one of the Ultra-High Frequency antenna attached to the bottom of a 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron WC-130J aircraft Aug. 2, 2021. These antennae are largely used for navigation and radio communications.

1220 Notice DEECEE-51 #62-3556 Southbound for Florida did loop near Newport News
then pressed on South at FL280.. Think they picked up somebody..
Guess Dover has the new C-17 pax record for the C-17.
"Crew will not face any disciplinary punishment" As far as I can tell "01-0186" is still in Oman.
A RCH-871 #06-6154 came into McGuire last night and is returning to Travis today.

1228- Venus 01 (VC-25 # 82-8000) landing at ADW. Working on SAM A-A (292.8) Chat indicates 82-8000 will be active Sunday & Monday (not specific about which week). Crewman says wx wasn't too bad, only off by 5,000ft. 82-8000 left ADW, did a little work in the Hagerstown area then headed out to past Pittsburgh before turning back & RTB ADW.
