I've shot that approach over 20 times and its always fun briefing it with those names. Apparently its one of the most famous/well known approaches because of it.

It's because Mel Blanc was born in Portsmouth.
Just got home but have someone tanking assume ARRIS with unid fighter on Pax River Echo freq 341.950.
ARRIS is only tanker around.. Thinking Edwards AFB crew testing out here with Navy types?
Heard Salty Dog callsign... Some A/A 365.700
Think they are finished as heard mentioned to tanker see you in debrief. I guess via zoom session perhaps
1457 Salty Dogs A/A 365.700 say will drop down to 10k on way in and do some burning and turns to get rid of some fuel.
1459 ARRIS seems headed back to Seymour Johnson I guess where they borrowed this tail but #18-46041 was 97AMW/56ARS tail.
Maybe just using SJ as local KC-46 tanker support base.

1658- Baton 74 chatting w/Baton 73 (not heard) on 395.1. First time I've heard the Baton Ops freq used as an A-A. Don't know who was who, but EC-130J # 96-8154 was south of DC inbound to Harrisburg & EC-130J # 98-1932 was crossing the NJ coast heading out to W107/108.
Had EAGLE-02 C-17 01-0191 Dover based inbound Dover training 100% complete.
Yesterday EAGLE-01 Dover C-5M with same training complete message inbound.
Not sure what gives with those training callsigns with two types of aircraft.. Wing Commanders?
Also unknown Canada CFC inbound Pax River NAS 1825z from Spain via St Johns stop. New bird?
(C2BCFB) CFC1003 average speed 250 knots at FL240 down the East Coast to Maryland.
Don't get many CanForce types into Pax River.
YF1003 (CFC1003) Canadian Armed Forces Flight Tracking and History - FlightAware
Maybe new C-295 Airbus aircraft? Canada has a bunch on order.
They are built in San Pablo where CFC1003 originated.

1658- BATON 73 was doing pattern work at KMDT, then went north up to the Viper area. Looks like it would have been a busy flight.

Have that freq in my rotation as NASA Ops at Langley as well.
Saturday McGuire Space A has 3 flights to Portsmouth/Pease and one flight today all early afternoon flights.
Possibly staging up there.
Some vid from Fairchild's KC-135 mass launch the other day.. Roughly 4 minutes they all got airborne.
