odd tracking

Hello, not sure if it has anything to do with military or not but tracked a flight out of ACY N56RF that stayed about 200Ft. up and flew patterns around the Ocean to the Shore down the coast.

ARMY 286 with ZDC SWL 132.550 out of Hagerstown IFR to VFR, will return later. Camp David flight?

Wildbill, FAA shows yours as a DHC-6 owned by the Department of Commerce... weird.

EDIT: on further research, appears to be used by NOAA for scientific data gathering, notably marine research.

EDIT 2: thought I saw it over Ocean City MD, but I guess that must have been another high-wing small twin turboprop in blue and white... C/S didn't match.

 

[wildbillx]

Dpcain, you probably did see it as it was hugging the Del, Maryland shore line.

AF1 replacement picked

FYI

"Washington (CNN)The Pentagon has chosen Boeing's 747-8 to replace the two aging planes that serve as the President's Air Force One fleet."

ANGRY flight heading out for training. 317.425

1915- BULLY flight active too. ZDC 360.7 > 254.3
ZDC 236.825 to Giantkiller 249.8


Taking a look at Andrews AFB on Google Earth right now, both VC-25 are out of the hangars and there are 9 C-17s parked out there. Must've been a trip getting ready to leave or returning. Imagery is dated 10/12/2012

ARMY 286 with ZDC SWL 132.550 out of Hagerstown IFR to VFR, will return later. Camp David flight?

No, Army doesn't have anything to do with Camp David. In the past I've heard Army PAT flights between Hagerstown and Ft Belvoir. The Army is likely involved with Sierra Nevada Corp or other contractors there.

Fair enough, thanks for fixing my speculation

N545EF (12-3040) USAF SOCOM Dornier 328-100 (C-146A) passing through as CANNON1

2121- SAM44 82-8000 departing. 125.65 Earlier 92-9000 departed around 1745, no callsign showed and never heard it on the radio.
Heading back to Philly to meet up with 92-9000 I figure.
2128- on 124.55 says they're heading to Philly.
2147- AF1 inbound 124.55

Seeing that the AN-124 ADB2562 landed at Dulles again today at 1642 from KTRI. Will probably leave early in the morning.

Frequent visitor to CYQI. Often used to spot/count whales in the Bay Of Fundy.
I tracked him at FL030 for about a hour a couple weeks ago near my station.

AN-124 ADB2562 departed Dulles a few minutes ago. 125.05>128.7
It had been delayed all evening, the flight even disappeared from Flightaware and I figured it was scrapped for tonight until I heard a large plane going over my house.


2150- On mode-s I have 3B7774 French Air Force KC-135 525/93-CN with the callsign RCH524.
