AR-62E is hot Weds morning 1145z-1245z FL240-FL270 DCC Ctr.. Saw the other day McGuire
was supposed to have a couple tankers go up to Goose Bay.Maybe related.
Someone going Eastbound..

Looks like 1345z only MOLSON-1 KC-135 #59-1498 left Bangor headed up towards AR62E
prob for some Canforce Hornets.

Yes, the 2009 fiscal year C-32As (09-0015, 09-0016, 09-0017, 09-0018) often stand in for AF1. And VENUS98's flight pattern looks similar to other COOP/COG exercises flown alongside the E-4Bs.

Yep, that sure could be the mission. Didn't we recently see an E-4 with no visible C-32 fly a similar route out of ADW?

In the few instances of the CoG E-4/C32 exercise I've seen, the C-32 seems to use a single numeric callsign like VENUS 7 for 09-0017.

I guess the annual Heritage Flight training course at DM as sure were a lot of Mustangs and noticed a couple
F-22's parked with SPADS on tails so assume Langley RAPTOR-1 Demo team as well
The Sabre jet seemed to be having some difficulties but did ok. I still like the single F-16 demo as they really throw it around
the field low and loud.Rarely around here though..

NIGHTHAWK31/32 done at Mt Weather. Heading north and will be back in 1.5 hour. 241.0

Looks like 1345z only MOLSON-1 KC-135 #59-1498 left Bangor headed up towards AR62E prob for some Canforce Hornets.

From what I could tell from LiveATC it seems MOLSON 1 went all the way up to BGTL solo, then southbound they picked up 2 CF-18s.

AR-62E is hot Weds morning 1145z-1245z FL240-FL270 DCC Ctr.

During this time on AR62E there was HOIST 82 with SLAYER 11 flight (B-1Bs on Rons list).

Hearing a dogfight exercise maybe down in W-386 area 285.225, 312.2, 238.175

There was also a HOIST 81 that departed from CYYR to meet up with the SLAYER flight later on in the ALTRV. While enroute HOIST 81 changed their callsign to TEAM 31. The ALTRV clearance was via EVABU 61N37W 5818N4020W 5540N4327W 5315N4547W 5032N4801W 48N50W then back into domestic airspace.

Makes sense as 312.200 is the common frequency used in the northern part of W386.

I've got ANGRY 1 and ANGRY 2, and WILD in W386 on 238.900, sounds like they're getting gas. Can't hear the tanker from my QTH in VA Beach.

 

[Mark]

Delaware Army ANG UH-60's hearing short coms on departures on 46.90 FM so still a good freq for them.
I think officially part of the 1/126th AV (Air Ambulance) which is Nationwide.

Its Wild 1-3 and Darkstar (Awacs?)
312.2, 238.175, 285.225
Maybe these guys?
EDIT- a little research turns up Greyhawk 45 is an E2D

Either there is some good tropo or ZDC Linden is transmitting from Leesburg currently. I'm going with the Leesburg site.

Yeah agree using spoof AWACS down off Virginia.. Had a feeling busy night for WILD/ANGRY flights as when cleared into 386 on GK 350.050
they had altitudes reserved from 3k to 60k.WILD entered at FL400 and ANGRY behind at FL200. Guess drill is for ANGRY's to
come up and chase the WILD's

 

[MMID303]

Hearing something on a TACAMO frequency. Couldn't make it out. Anyone else in south central PA/Western Maryland hearing it?

Been a good 15 minutes now since I last heard anything.

Fort Drum and the Coast Guard teaming up?
Interesting partnership.. Detroit CG Air Station is a ways off. Will have to program CG freqs in the UH-60M.

A heads up to all NY/Canada listeners, Fort Drum restricted airspace active today from 1700-2030 Zulu. This is the same reservation that the B-52s used earlier this week.
