thanks!
Cool!
wonder if they'll work on an A-10?

They sure will--have heard the Martin State A-10s talk of using GBU-12s, GBU-32s, Mavericks etc while working both the PAX ranges and the Bollen Range in PA.

 

[Tech792]

Have also heard BDU-33's (practice bombs) in use at the Warren Grove Range.

HOIST 92 landing McGuire 118.65
TEAM 15 & 16 working A/A 303.0
A lot of EVERGREEN and GIANT AIR coming in and out of KWRI last few days (Contracted aircraft)

05/17/11
1530 local- MAPLE 04 coming through NJ/NY 282.3 then 350.3 @ FL270 (sounded like a flt of 1)
1910 local- OPEC 03 setting up an AR on 324.6 with ROUGH99? (sounded like)

I've had 126.2 in radio last 3 days. Absolutely nothing received here in CNJ on the counter.

 

[freqhopping]

Logged the prototype YC-17A 87-0025 today as ARRIS08. Seems to have landed somewhere relatively local since I had it down to 4300ft. Staging somewhere for the JSOH?

C-130 08-3173 has been around the last two days as TBIRD15.

AE1245 was RCH2784 today, so it's most likely 62-1784.

AE1245 was RCH2784 today, so it's most likely 62-1784.

Nice catch on that Edwards C-17 (ADFC4A) #87-0025.
Hopefully sticks around for the airshow.Rarely leaves Edwards test range.

AE1245 C-130E is on weekly Tuesday Dover milk run.Nobody has posted this tail yet but is probably in 62-**** range.
Reach # is mission number.A while back into Dover was Reach 2041.
Will depart tommorow back to Scott AFB then onto Colorado then Travis by Friday and then back to the 19AW.Same routine every week from the 19AW.
Guess you could call it the old AMC C-5 weekly base milk run.

Guys,

Got this article off the Milcom Blog.

With this level of activity you'd think we'd see more reflections of it in our logs. I've only heard the F-35 once that I know of (used callsign Lightening)

If they are moving up to McGuire thi summer hopefully we'll see them move as well as some support activity between KWRI & PAX.



F-35C Test Aircraft Exceeding Test and Evaluation Goals

The U.S. Navy variant of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, the F-35C, conducts a test flight over the Chesapeake Bay. Lt. Cmdr. Eric "Magic" Buus flew the F-35C for two hours, checking instruments that will measure structural loads on the airframe during flight maneuvers. The F-35C is distinct from the F-35A and F-35B variants with larger wing surfaces and reinforced landing gear for greater control when operating in the demanding carrier take-off and landing environment.

From F-35C Integrated Test Force, Naval Air Systems Command Public Affairs

PATUXENT RIVER, Md. (NNS) -- Naval Air Systems Command announced May 17 that the test aircraft for the carrier variant of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter is exceeding test and evaluation program goals so far this year.

According to the announcement, the F-35C test aircraft, 'CF-1,' currently at Naval Air Station Patuxent River has completed 36 test flights as of May 11, nearly half the program's goal for the year of 85.

"CF-1's been flying well, even with a number of planned and unplanned maintenance periods," said U.S. Marine Corps Col. Roger Cordell, military site director. "It's a great sign for the fleet that the aircraft is doing well so early in the test program."

In April, CF-1 completed 13 flights, tying a record for the number of test flights for any aircraft at Naval Air Station Patuxent River. Additionally, the integrated test team has completed seven CF-1 test flights this month.

"The team has been doing a great job staying on top of maintenance requirements," said Jim McClendon, Lockheed Martin site director vice president. "Just last week, CF-1 flew six flights in six days, which is a great accomplishment in any test program, let alone test and evaluation for a brand new aircraft."

Coupled with this week's arrival of the second carrier variant, CF-2, and arrival of CF-3 later this year, the F-35C test program is making rapid progress toward initial carrier suitability testing this year at Joint Base Lakehurst-McGuire-Dix in New Jersey.

First carrier suitability testing this summer is scheduled to include the first catapult launches, and the F-35C is scheduled to commence shipboard testing in 2013.

The F-35C is the carrier variant of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, with larger wing control surfaces and reinforced landing gear to operate in the maritime environment. The F-35C is undergoing test and evaluation to evaluate flutter, loads and mission systems at NAS Patuxent River prior to eventual delivery to the fleet.

TURBIN 01 is odd one that hangs out on West Coast.Possible C-12 type or UC-12 type?
Will look for it at Andrews Saturday.

AE26FA is listed as CV-22B #05-0029? Again will double check # while there.

Heard DC-41 inbound Andrews after local mission req parking on active ramp
for the airshow. KC-135 #57-1479

NASA 850 F-18A 161703 also into Andrews from Edwards.
Civ Mode s is (ABA885) but like all F18s it doesn't show.

((Alot of arrivals today for the Joint Service Open House this weekend))

Good job catching all the arrivals.
That 85TP is N85TP a Harmon Rocket from KHEF.
N51HY is mode-s equipped
3LT could've been N103LT North American SNJ-4


Today I logged N102JK John Klatts EA300/L at 1025.
Right now T-28B N281CM is airborne at 7k ft.


1625- TOPHAT1 flight 254.35>291.625> 360.7. Luke AFB F-16s?
Heading Baltimore, then direct Linden. Out of Martin State?
1630- To ZDC Hagerstown 227.125 at FL230. Sounds like at least three.
1633- to Linden 322.55 at FL260. Haven't found a VHF A>A freq.

1643- Finally IDed as flight of three.
