1003- Some MD ANG A-10Cs up working on 266.6. Don't know where they are yet.

COLT flight headed out to range with Dover appch 257.875 asking if Dover TFR is still active.
Answer must have been yes so they will turn Southeast below Dover then back Northeast.
COLT A/A 266.600 say we will turn left now and go over Cape May.

1023 local Someone flight of 2 A/A 358.850.Maybe Langley guys maybe headed out offshore.Thought I heard callsign BASH.
Also A-10 Ops active 293.300
1027 Someone on Harrisburgh 281.525..Prob a pair of A-10's with one female pilot.
1016 BASH says on 358.850 we are at the upper altitude of our CAP up to FL 40k.
I think BASH Va ANG is playing with the Mig T-38's offshore or another pair of BASH F-22's also on W-386 freq 350.0500

Today I saw several of the Ospreys in ME. I was out fishing with my cousin and uncle in the Harraseeket River. Two (CROSSBOW11 and 21) came through Freeport separately a few minutes apart. While leaving my cousin's on Cousins Island I could hear one in the distance. While crossing the bridge to the mainland I could see it in helo mode over the water near Falmouth. Then this evening while wrapping up dinner I happened to check ADSBx and saw one (CROSSBOW41) heading our way in Freeport. I was able to see it from the house. It was in helo mode flying south along the coast.

A little after 1930 this evening I first heard then saw two Iroquois flying in formation, eastbound following route 7 over Purcellville and Hamilton. Was able to identify one as Musel16, but no transponder active on the companion. Looks like they were coming from Mt Weather and landed at Andrews.
