Thanks for the reply..
New to this ADS-B Exchange..
Being in Omaha,Ne. I listen to a lot of traffic from Offutt!
I hear planes taking off from Offutt but on ADS-B I do not
see them??
Any ideas out there as to why?
Any INFO on ADS-B Exchange would really be appreciated
from people who are not older than dirt that could lend a ear..

THANKS

Logged 4 Israeli tankers today about 12:45 CST.
2 over Wichita KS. and 2 over Kansas city KS.
heading west for the Games.
IAF-100 -- IAF-104 -- IAF - 1u1 and IAF - 102 ..
Can someone tell me if IAF - 1u1 might have been
a F-16 fighter and not a tanker??

1u1 Should be a B703 tanker.. Maybe carrying cargo as well.
Prob all 4 carrying some cargo..
Seems they all made Vegas around 2000z today..

Odd new mode s showing up lately in the area.. (AE542E)
twice since July 12th.
Guessing Army MC-12 type judging by altitudes etc.
Only callsign seen was one time a 12 showed in the box.

Forgot to post earlier but the 167th has 2 visitors that arrived yesterday afternoon 7/30 -

95-0103 arrived 16:22 local as DECOY55
and
99- 0060 arrived 16:52 local as DECOY53


Both are still on the ramp at MRB. I was on base today and inquired about them. They are not new additions to the 167th but are in from McChord for maintenance.

Here's a picture of 95-0103 from this morning -

Ok I heard what sounded like GRECO 21 (thick accent) flight of 3 enroute KORF on ZDC UHF 1930z
Maybe that was second group..
Tanker was BLUE 81 85-0028 with assistance up North of BLUE 82 KC-135 from Maine ANG.

Mark that would have been the 6 x UAE F16s heading to Flag via SHAW AFB for the night

1:35pm local sounded like TROLL 01 self id as two A-10's with ZDC UHF FL230
enroute J79 to JFK,J35 to Albany and finally V91 to Burlington Vermont.
Wings over Vermont airshow this weekend..
The A-10 demo teams were phased out a few years back so assume just a couple Moody 23Wg A-10's gonna do some
flybys over Lake Champlain up there...Forecast there is highs in low 80's..That sounds better than here..

Guys,


Especially for those in the McGuire area:

Some suspected UHF freqs to keep an ear out for:

303.5750 USAF ANG - unit?
310.6000 USAF ANG - unit?
311.0000 USAF AMC - is it in use?
383.4000 USN - unit?

303.575 might be the C-32 ANG squadron common
and the Navy 383.4 (VR-46?)

Earlier tonight 2135z (AE1525) KC-130J #167109 MCAS Iakuni showing tracking Pax area
as NAVYTES.
This bird came into Pax back on June 15 as SUMO 25.Tail code is QD,almost looks like OO
https://www.dvidshub.net/image/2638509/arctic-aurora-2016
Serious fuel tanks underwings..
Rare you get to see a KC-130J full tracking mode..
Guess Pax River doing some mod work for the KC-130J's.
