Yes, was definitely 233.650. Lots of chat going on between them enroute to Pease. @jetcrafter also copied them on the same freq.

CG 2012 definitely on a SAR case with flying a search pattern.
Will have to see if anything shows up on www.coastguardnews.com in the next day or so.

1145- Hoist 80 (KC-10 # 85-0034) & KC-46 # 21-46064 off McGuire in formation heading south. First time I've seen a mixed formation. A2A is 378.85.
1022 local NOBLE-01 flight departing CAP will drop down to 2500 feet VFR Southbound along the Coast.
Were told that W-386 was restricted so doing the low level VFR.
Couple Pacific Altrav tankers headed NW from MacDill Florida.
RUMMY-91 #61-0321
RUMMY-01 #60-0331
Rgr Ron don't hear the McGuire ROCCO callsign very often these days.
NOBLE-11 asking Bigfoot on 260.900 if the new tanker freq 228.900 is permanent rather than 247.050.
NOBLE-11 working TEFLON-14 as new tanker.
C2002 was working this pattern in exact same area last week.Nothing on news or Coast Guard freqs.
Wonder if training or they are looking for something else.

The 3x VH-3Ds (NIGHTHAWK 1 FLT) flew to GED to refuel after they dropped off POTUS. They then returned to their base at Anacostia, DC. A VH-60N is stationed at Dover in case they need to bug out (not sure how they would do that because the usual LZ at Gordons Pond is open for routine business, cars throughout the parking lot.)
Yeah he had the ground crews a bit nervous this morning for almost a Evac mission..

Ron,
I concur and confirm that 233.65 is correct. Heard them yesterday inbound to Pease and caught them today on the same freq flying from Pease to Bangor. New one for me as well.

Some good spotting at the Dulles / Udvar-Hazy event (though it took me an hour to park the car--grrr...)

Nice video of SWAMP 01/02 arriving at Pease yesterday evening.
...and departing Pease earlier today. Good view of 9 x 157ARW KC-46's parked on the ANG ramp in the background during taxi.

Lining up for approach to KIAD.
Those Langley T-38's are so quiet compared to most fighter jets in those video clips.
Quiet as a Gulfstream jet almost.They sure are having a great weekend tour
2033 local NOBLE-21 flight departing Potus CAP for home (Langley) on ZDC 354.150 and A/A 268.200
Poor guys will be back again Sunday morning. One NOBLE pilot admitted earlier today been almost 3 months now TDY at Langley and
looking forward to get home to New Orleans but CAP's are luckily mainly on weekends so still keeping busy on their weekday Airline jobs.
Long Potus weekend till Monday night so may see other fighter units help cover Beach CAP.
Some good comments heard by a couple F-15 pilots and KC-46A tanker crews is how much faster and easier the new tanker type
KC-46A's are.They really fuel charge those fighters much quicker as compared to the KC-135's.

You'd be amazed how quick it was cleared out if they needed it.
