Sticky Thread For Mid-Atlantic MilAir 2022

[BM82557]

I've been monitoring in this area since 1996 and have never heard or seen posted any Air-to-Air freq for the Martinsburg guys. One would think they would have to communicate with Potomac on 126.825 though.

302.3 has been copied from time to time in use by the 167th as air to air --

This Was the VP arrival aircraft, at Columbia, for Harris's visit to two HCBU's in Orangeburg, SC. I well may have missed the departure from Columbia.
Arrival: CAE

What milair frequencies would you guys recommend for NY POTUS visits? Have heard some chatter on HMX-1's frequency as well as the 104th FW frequencies

If you search through this thread, you'll find all kinds of good freqs. But the main ones for potus visits are 260.9 and 247.05.

AF2 was a C-32A going to CAE. The 757 broke and the Veep rode back to Andrews on a C-17A.



It has happened before:

Sad day hearing of any F15 going to the boneyard. Haven't worked on them in over 25 years.

I think that might be a mix up with the 130th AW since 302.300 is Blacksmith Ops at KCRW. Plus the 167th flew the C-5 previously - so no multi-ship sorties.

I don't understand why she flew separately to NYC.

And she used a C-32. Why not a C-37?
