Sticky Thread For Mid-Atlantic MilAir 2022

[airwolfbell222]

Please excuse the question but am interested more of this and can't seem to find a good resource to "how to" listen and watch milair. Today as I type 2 jets flew over my house as they do often. Being in remote VA SW of the Farmville MOA I've tried to scan channels and ADS never shows stuff. Is there anyone savy that I can DM or point me to a thread on more info ?

Hi, Try ZDC - Washington Center 377.1 & 290.425 I recorded this yesterday on 377.1 https://voca.ro/16Ts3ZzbSRcP
Also listen to Flight Service Station 255.4, a lot of fighters will pickup VR routes out there and will call FSS or self announce joining a route.

were the CAP fighters from Andrews? TIS-b into Andrews tonight:

NIGHTHAWK31 Flt (3x V-22s) talking to Potomac headed home from Mount Weather.
forget about what I said for Nighthawk 4. Here's TIS-b for Nighthawk 4 and Nighthawk 31 flt (which definitely came from Mount Weather). Note the northerly approach to DC.

0400 local GOLD-22 KC-135 #64-14832 up in St Louis area at FL260 Tn ANG,
Was wondering what happened to it. It departed from Tennessee back on 2/22.
Looks like F-15 delivery of some type. Maybe more Qatari AF specials.

Thanks for posting. Who is SLACKER 1 ? I think I heard a similar sounding callsign on LiveATC departing Langley (?) and ID'd by ATC as F-15s ?

Checking the LiveATC tape again the callsign heard departing Langley sounded more like SKATER ? They were heading westbound, same direction as some T-38s that were going to the Farmville MOA, this was around 1145 EST. SKATER (?) 01 LiveATC Audio
