Interesting unidentified aircraft flying around Raleigh and Fayetteville this month. No callsign or registration logged, hex of AE66CE, comes up from Jacksonville FL in the morning does race track pattern around either Raleigh (currently) or Fayetteville (earlier this month) and has been doing the same thing for all of Feb.

I'd guess a P-8

MQ-4 flying as SCORE 46 is working the West edge of W386 at FL520 and seems to be transmitting on 225.1 FM again.

Got the reg... 168430

 

[Madfox]

168430 should be VP-10 tail code LD, GRIFFIN call sign is the wing call sign CPRW11, normally used when one of the big wigs are onboard, GRIFFIN01 being the Commodore’s c/sign.

Anyone hearing a pulse sent about every two seconds on 313.250 ?

Just a wild guess - but the drone is up on 225.100 with a similar strength signal so maybe related.

SCORE46

Okay another option is that SCORE46 is using 225.100 and another drone MQ-8 169484 (identified on ADSB Exchange as N169484) is using 313.250

 

[freqhopping]

MQ-8C 169484 drone helo operating around Salisbury. ADS-B Exchange - tracking thousands of aircraft

Anyone hearing a pulse sent about every two seconds on 313.250 ?

Not where I am. I do hear the 225.1 signal though.


1324- EXECUTIVE 1 FOXTROT inbound for Rwy16 somewhere, should be KRIC. With Pax App 135.625

Sorry, any idea who they are and what they were doing ?

No worries - at least someone else heard them besides me......makes me wonder if related to the two drones or the E6 that is doing orbits.

 

[Chris52]

Air to Air traffic on 293.300 talking about Ft. Wayne and both of their lives and what they could have done differently. Very interesting
