Mark,

I'm assuming that CAP 724 & CAP 726 are both Delaware CAP acft?

Yep those are Delaware CAP types.
I was hearing both States fairly well on those two freqs.

I think it could've been N705GG.

*"Dayton Approach" has moved to Columbus and is now another section of "Columbus Approach." Just another example of FAA stupidity. I'll keep calling it Dayton...because I'm more intelligent than those fools.

I logged three of the P-8As today.

Also got some greats shots of the A380 departing Dulles a little while ago. Thanks to the Radarbox showing me the departure route of another heavy departing an hour earlier I was able to pick a perfect spot to wait for it. It was at around 1000-1500ft. I was using a 300mm lens and able to more than fill it, so I was close.

 

[mdmonitor]

WOW !!!!! G R E A T Picture. Nice job

 

[freqhopping]

Just noticed MC-130P 66-0212 passing through the area with a flight ID of BEER ME.


2200- ANVIL67 C-130 94-6705 departing Martinsburg for Charleston
OMAHA5 inbound for Manassas. Apparently using mode-s code for N21769.

2235- If I just heard ATC right, I believe the Dulles center runway is being redone now.

Sounds like similar comms (now) on 277.350 NFM with female voice. Some buzz words like "going dynamic" tracking Mobile 1, into parking lot.

Interesting picture of Navy P-8A Poseiden.
Was wondering what those two large circular areas on the fuselage between the wings are. Subsonic recievers/transmitters?
