NOBLE 1+2 in the BLUE HEN Altrav CAP talking about rtb in 2 hours due to wx on Huntress 260.900 A/A 263.200
That front is real slow mover so not supposed to get here till around 5pm.By then will be dark and quitting time anyway.
0935 NOBLES with Tanker can take 2k now each to help out loaded tanker and looking to rtb soon.The wx really has them spooked.

A few funny commercials by Army and Navy squads.. Go Army!
The wx may mess up the pre-game flyovers perhaps.Hopefully they launch and stay below cloud deck.
I recall snow a couple years ago in Philly and they still did flybys.

These Army Navy rivalry videos might be more entertaining than the game (navytimes.com)

wx?

wx?

Probably.....having some issues with the computer audio in PA. So only heard Huntress intermittently while fiddling with it.
Will only have that site for a few more years at most so not sure I want to spend money on a new computer there.

1137- A few on the ground at EWR might be related to today's Army/Navy game
FORGE 53 Cessna Citation jet (00-01052), track originated from Andrews
SAM 728 Boeing C-40B (02-0042), track also from Andrews
There was a 3rd small jet but it vanished before I got the data

See a SANTA callsign down Norfolk way AE2768 comes back as UH-60S US Navy chopper.
Looks like CG-02 GLF5 also from DC to Newark today.. Maybe helping out the Navy Brass?
Navy VV-101 C-37B also did DC to KEWR earlier.

1500- Looks like a few TIS-B targets staging north of the stadium, doing circles
1505- Those targets are proceeding over the stadium.

Didn't see game, but did POTUS attend the game?

He did not attend this year.

 

[mdmonitor]

He did not attend this year.

Geez !!! He's in Wilmington and can't go up the road to Philly. What Commander in Chief.. He's a joke

 

[Mark]

Actually the game was in East Rutherford NJ but not that far like you say.. Maybe it was the wx,poll numbers?
The wx was decent around here till well after dark so still surprised those CAP pilots wanted to bail so early.
Well maybe not that surprised.. Lol
My Brother was at game as my Niece is Senior at West Point this year.. Smart girl

0610 local IGOR-13 #17-46029 coming South from NH this morning. Clear but windy skies forecast for today.

He was too concerned about the, (his words from his news conference), "hurricane" the went through the Kentucky area.

Actually - several presidents did not even attend the game in recent history (if you trust the information from Wikipedia)

Since 1901, there have been ten sitting presidents of the United States to attend the Army–Navy Game. The first was Theodore Roosevelt, who attended the game in 1901 and 1905. Harry S. Truman attended all but one edition during his eight years in office (1945–1952), missing the 1951 game due to vacation. Gerald Ford 1974, George W. Bush was a spectator in 2001, 2004, and 2008. John F. Kennedy and Donald Trump each showed up twice; Kennedy in 1961 and 1962, Trump in 2018 and 2020. Woodrow Wilson (1913), Calvin Coolidge (1924), Gerald Ford (1974), Bill Clinton (1996), and Barack Obama (2011) each attended once.

Found this as well......

This is always a weird political football. Most presidents attend 1 game in their 4 years. Trump missed 2. Carter, Reagan and Bush Sr never attended. Nixon, Johnson and Eisenhower of all people never attended either.

Most surprising to me was that Reagan, Bush Sr and Eisenhower never attended. Reagan for his popularity and warmth and Bush Sr and Eisenhower for previous military background (although maybe Bush Sr - Navy and Eisenhower - Army did not want to bias the outcome !!

Hey hey hey I WON'T tolerate that k ind of ,disrespect on this thread........The game was in EAST RUTHERFORD NEW JERSEY at GIANTS STADUM I was at the VFW watching and I was hoping he'd fly over Cape May if he went up . There's a helipad at the stadium. I was listening online to Teterboro airport online which is right near the stadium, but nothing jumped out at me.

I doubt we would have seen him fly over Cape May County. Wilmington is closer to the stadium than we are.....they would have to go backwards to go forward.
