Just had GUMP 60 flight of two C-130s land at Portland, Maine (KPWM). Headed to the MAC Jets ramp. No ADSB signal at all on the inbound. I will see if my son can snag a picture of them or their tails. He works at the airport. I have no clue who or where they are from and where they came from.
GUMP are Maxwell AFB - tails 19142 and 84406. They're staying overnight. About 34 crew disembarked.

Seems TEAL pilots may be in trouble..
'Hurricane Hunters' Air Force unit investigating flight that landed at Martha's Vineyard to pick up motorcycle (msn.com)

Checking mode s a TEAL-58 #96-5301 was around there March 25.

Good vid of whats happening of that stuck Evergreen ship in Maryland..
Looks like they are gonna bring in bigger tugs from New York and anchor a couple of barges in April.
We have had lots of NW winds blowing tides out so wx not helping here.

Someone on Twitter thinks that there is unusual activity at Langley today.

F-15's are Florida CAP fighters.. NWS says a big nasty storm with maybe tornados Thursday evening
into Maryland/Va area.. Prob why they hangered the F-15's.
National Cargo airlines hitting a lot of bases for Mil supplies. Sounds like hype.
Check out that storm front wall currently from Chicago to New Orleans.. NWS says could be a bad one around here.

Hey Guys, I was told to ask here, if anyone noticed an awacs orbit sua up here in the northeast? Maybe ar777 location? There is 1 tonight, above lake michigan. I was wondering what purpose it serves? I think there was 1 outside ar777 for a Vermont F35 formation at one time. Our awacs orbit sua is inside the (ar640a/b) fuel anchor, but just the awacs sua will be activated. The anchor does not appear to be. Thanks!
