1345- Pack 92 looks to be heading back to ADW. Maybe a demo ride for some bigwigs or for some 756th crewmen? Departed ADW earlier went out to W107/108 for awhile and is now heading back to ADW.

I agree on the B-52 sound. Heard him enroute to the range on ZDC 285.600 and now returning with ZOB 348.675 > 281.475.

Checking my tape Ron 1635 local had SCAN-08 with ZDC UHF strong prob 360.700 at FL15k says cancel IFR and going VFR down to R-4007 for
a couple loops at FL17.5k then into R-4006.. I don't ever think I heard them so close by before on UHF
Still on racetrack down there currently 1750 local.

Miss that one. I don't have 360.7 turned on normally. I'm so close to the xmitter that I hear both ground & air sides and it locks up my scanner.

I only turn on BWI/Potomac & ZDC Baltimore when I know someone's coming/passing through.

1320 - SKULL 32 checking in with IRON CROSS on 226.900. Sounds like a B-52. Working the Ft. Drum ranges at 17,000ft.

I caught SKULL 31 calling SKULL 32 on Blue Ops 226.875 to set up a refueling run at 4:20 pm EDT.

Off topic SWA-2029 on Airinc 129.400 with deceased pax who turned blue and family requested oxygen
and we didn't have any. Family was late letting crew know etc..Said it was not a cardiac event

Off topic but interesting, I've always been of the opinion that there is more to anti-air than missiles --

Four miniguns on an old M45 quad machine gun mount blasting away at a combined 12,000 rounds-per-minute is really something to see and hear.

Sentry-03H headed back West from KIAD.. Practice flight? Odd.

Sounds like F-35's, they are using 247.050 for the boom freq.

Seems I caught this on recordings today. BLUE 82 and RETRO 31,32 came into Maine refueling and then circled over Bangor at FL270 waiting to meet up with BLUE 81. They finished a refueling just before meeting up with 81 for the block 250-270, next refuel was to be an hour later on schedule. Next waypoint was EBONY after leaving the Bangor area. Last transmissions on 247.05 was RETRO31 saying, "push 378.2".

1248-1325z 247.050 BLUE 81,82 and RETRO 31,32 on boom freq.
1307z 378.200 BLUE 81 checking in on AR Primary.

Nice to hear this F-35 delivery flight FINALLY happened!
