I just heard GREYHAWK 7 as well. He was wkg. AC Approach on 327.125 just before he went to 285.4. Think he was doing touch and goes at AC. Now I'm hearing BICEPs at Warren Grove on 283.1 and I think 143.9. Someone also wkg. GK on 118.125 now mentioning the IP and AR clearance with UHF freq. of 238.9. Missed callsign.

1910 local- BICEP flts working at the Warren Grove range 283.1, A/A 140.175. Talking about going "green", then heard encryption in use briefly but one of their aircraft isn't equipped with encryption. So they went back to "red'. (clear)

0700 EDT--just heard an unid pilot tell Potomac that " we eat Army pilots for breakfast and right now we're hungry"---at least someone has a sense of humor this rainy morning

NAVY JR913 C-20 165151 was departing from somewhere (Dulles maybe) and apparently hit a bird. I heard them talking with Dulles tower on 134.425 telling them about it and asking them to check for bird bits and airplane pieces in the area of the strike. That would dictate whether they keep on going. They just got word there were no pieces. Last heard them with ZDC on 133.55 before going out of mode-S range. It sounded like ZDC may have told them to report the strike to the FAA.

JR 913 just left Patterson at 2140Z...so they did keep going.
