Sticky Thread For MilAir 2016

[FIREBOX2914]

Rgr Ron had some on tape here..
TREND 11 split into 4 ship and two ship TREND 15
Followed by TREND 21,31 flights all direct Norfolk then sw to ZDC Norfolk 327.800 fading fast.
Seems all are 48th FW F-15's in from RAF Lakenheath.,Tankers were ROMA 61,71,81 KC-10's
and some ROMA KC-135's as well. Guess with overseas extended wing tanks they last refueled way up North.
Maybe off to Eglin or elsewhere for exercise?

British forums have the 494th FS from Lakenheath headed to Red Flag Alaska......

I had Planefinder on last night, sitting on my deck identifying the flybys. that P8 (TRDNT02) came up. never got a visual, too low I think.
I don't think I've ever seen a mil flight on PF before. was this a factory flight maybe?

I followed him for a while last night, From Atlantic City he went west across lower PA. When I last checked he was over mid-Ohio.

SCORE72 active on 363.35 Not sure who it is. ZZ334 and E-6B 163920 are active over the bay and eastern shore. Four T-38s also active, SCORE72 mentioned some showing on TCAS.

For anyone that likes to keep a personal mode-s database up to date and accurate,

I just figured out that AF0E12 is used by N747RR, a Beech 400A. It's correct code is AA0E12.


Looks like 000001 showing flight ID AAAAAAAA is NIGHTHAWK6

Pax action on 376.8 and 277.05
Fighter types working with the ZZ334 tanker on 376.8

Currently getting activity on 322.400 and 233.45. These are in my PA bank but could these be used by the Blue Angles training today?

Well, they're currently flying over my house, so yea, probably. When they practice maneuvers later today, you'll likely hear the formation leader calling "Pull, pull, pullllll...."

 

[beastieboy101]

There was just a large formation of small planes that passed over the Washington Navy Yard in SE DC.

Looked like Red/White T-6B Texan II's.
