Mark,

Andrew does a good job with the videos and the accompanying tower/acft comms.

Wish I could hear those comms, but I'm too far away and they are too low.

Can't this Pres spend one weekend in DC? Obama had dinners and concert parties almost every other weekend at the WH.
The WH kitchen staff now get to go home every weekend

Mark,

Word online is that POTUS doesn't like living in the WH. It's unfamiliar to him and he has trouble adjusting.

Like any old codger, he likes what he's familiar with and doesn't like change.

Not hearing any A-A or calls from DOOM 81

I heard one call on Air/Air, DOOM 82 calling DOOM 81 but nothing more after that. I wonder if DOOM 81 turned back or is some way behind?

Edit: Just heard Air/Air again. Seems DOOM 81 is on the way but some distance behind.

1430ish GAF117 3E9BE5 landed at Dulles. It's a C-160, I saw it on final while passing through Sterling. Checking the replay its hex still isn't tagged as military. Should be 50+36.

Not many of those C-160 Transall's left. Replaced by A-400M types..

See Pack-43,44 up off NH for the Buffs.. Maybe PACK-44 the spare as sort of just lingering close to home.
