Heads Up

Hearing chat on 246.8, 257.7 & 343.1 (Coronet 61K). Looks like maybe the Martin State A-10s are on their way overseas. No callsigns heard yet.

Ron on tape at that time heard SPADE 01 flight along with SPADE 52,62 as well.
Think was VMA-231 "Ace of Spades" AV-8B's bugging out of Cherry Point NC.
Guess a Hurricane Mathews Evac...

The last two days on ADSBexchange I noticed the P-8s and P-3s getting out of Jacksonville.



NASA's Global Hawk can be tracked over the storm

1720 local Coast Guard 2711 calling Atlantic City Air on 345.000..
Also on mode s as HC-27J #2711.
Seems to be working out of Elizabeth City lately though supposedly assigned to Sacramento CGAS.
Maybe came North today to avoid wx.

N613TC...is this a legit ADS-B hit? Comes back as not registered. It appeared a little while ago appearing to route from the Willow Grove area while 614TC is still circling South Philly.

Just looked at FAA site...N613TC is aka N6971A, also "T A F Y Consulting". N number change requested in December 2015.

TAFY Consulting is a front company for the FBI's Aerial Surveillance Division

I have confirmation from a local resident that there are 8 Harriers sitting on the tarmac at KBGR and they did use the SPADE callsign. Like Ron, I also monitored their chatter yesterday and mistook them for A-10s.

AE4EA3 departed Dulles a bit ago as NAVY 6E 185. Everything shows this as 166186. Maybe it's actually 166185.

Guys,

1320 EDT-hearing a couple of acft in chat on 246.8 which was used last week by AV-8Bs as they went up to Bangor.

Maybe this is another group of AV-8Bs returning and heading down the coast to Beaufort SC.

Anyone else hearing them?

ADS-B is showing Hoist 80 (KC-10A # 87-0120 ) from McGuire orbiting out in W386. Maybe he's waiting for these guys.

Yeah half hour after leaving for work they depart.. CUBE 41-47 and CUBE 51-56
Only thing on tape here is CUBE 47 airspare returning Martin State..
There was another Eastbound Coronet up there couple hours later GOLD 11 with TREND 61 flight..
TREND 71 flight scratched and returned Bangor with GOLD 21.
Believe these were AV-8B's from VMA-231 also headed for Lajes.
