They are back up on 260.9 and 228.9
Must have been taking a break, since they weren't heard for some time.

Active on 228.9 a few minutes ago
Just talked on the boom freq of 228.9 of setting the speed.
SAM762 GLF5 97-0401 inbound Andrews it seems from MacDill aka Centcom.
Been a lot of SAM flights in and out of there the last few weeks.
These are the folks who actually plan and carry out the logistics of overseas strikes like the other day.
Was at airshow at MacDill some years back and as you entered flightline parking area there is this
huge facility off to one side behind MacDill with own fencing security etc.. That is Centcom.. you didn't dare drive over there

NOBLE-21 says will rtb Savannah on ZDC 307.250 in 5 minutes.. Guess CAP is over at 1800 local.
Easy CAP duty as very few small aircraft up today.. Need the sunny Sundays to get stray Cessnas
Also keep 121.500 in rotation as that what CAP fighters use to chase down small planes on the radio.
1800 local NOBLE-21 says on Huntress 260.900 nice working with you and see you tomorrow.
1803 NOBLEs push Aux-15 and up on ZDC 285.450 and A/A 328.500

No idea on Appleton. Only thing I could find on google was a Navy recruiting office. Maybe a really special recruit? Ha!
Seems Navy NAS Norfolk Chambers Field getting overhaul down that way.. Various aircraft ops shifting around for a few months.
May get some AMC pax C-17's to BWI though.
Naval Station Norfolk runway to close for repaving; some squadrons shifting to Oceana - Daily Press
Also a side note Charleston space A has C-17 to KILG early Tuesday morning.
Don;t get many of them in there.. Maybe picking up Potus rolling stock?

The US Air Force Quietly Admits the F-35 Is a Failure
The Air Force has finally admitted that the F-35 is not the aircraft the military hoped it would be, though we doubt Ferrari would appreciate being compared with the F-35.

0548 - TEFLON37 with HUNTRESS (260.9) referenced using 37 for A-A.
Does this reference match up to 247.5?

When the Nobles checked in this morning, Noble 01 said " push 247.050". I didn't hear them there so must've flubbed up.
the response to Nobel 01 " push 247.050" replied with "247.5". Nobel 01 missed that !
I think the tanker at one point in time either yesterday or maybe it was Friday understood refueling on 247.05 but actually stated 247.500. The fighters at that time did not challenge the frequency and came up on 247.500 I think the whole time the refueling is supposed to be on 247.050 but since the error occured and no one is clafifying it - they keep using 247.500 Could be just lack of attention to the detail and when they hear .05 they are only hearing the .5
I guess as long as no one worries about it - they just move on and do their jobs.

With the weather not expected to clear until later this afternoon - probably easier to use the jet.
