It is 2:25pm EST (1925z)
RAZOR 66 sounds like he is getting ready to RTB Robins. He is getting the
wx there from Cape Radio.
So much to hear today I have not had time to log it all. F-15s (BUDs) and
F-18s (GATORs) have been coming into Patrick, AWACS is controlling many flights
in the Whiskey Areas, including the Dutch F-16s (KILLERs), FANGs, SNAKEs, BUDs,
HOBIEs. JSTARS "StrikeStar" is talking to the Northrop Grumman ground station
STAR 1, as well as to the AWACS (Darkstar), to fighters. Tyhe Dutch are also
working at Avon Park, using SPIDER callsign. And of course the mainstay State
Department acft (BRONCO OV-10Ds) are flying the Patrick pattern, accompanied by
a CHS C-17, LIFTER 35. USN ASW SH-60F helos (AW 602) have been transiting
southward. And of course, Eglin's WIDGET 48 stopped by, ICE's N741SK
transited, and assorted transports passed through.
WHAT a day !!
Any freq you plug in will work today, but 267.5, 284.5, 292.2, 364.2,
225.8, 237.15, 301.0, 225.725 are some of the busiest in addition to the UHF
ATC freqs.
Stay the quest.
