also...I have HAMMERHEAD 11 flight of two HMH-366 CH-53s inbound to Brunswick (KBXM) now working Unicom on 122.725. No A-As heard here so far. Another captured tail number. 161257 is plotting for the flight. Here's three out of four tail numbers logged so far while they're up here:
161257 / AE4B2D
161259 / AE4B2F
161992 / AE4B4D
That's all for now...
