It is 10:13am EST and we have tankers BOLT 41 (KC-135 from MacDill) and
DUECE 92 (KC-10 from McGuire) active here. BOLT 41 is orbiting 28 DME on the
Homestead 142 radial. Deuce 92 is orbiting over Avon Park Bombing Range in the
altitude block FL240-260.
BOLT is up on 323.1. DEUCE is up with Avon on 292.2.
TIGER 11, a single F/A-18D from Beaufort MCAS VMFA(AW)-224 squadron, has
just arrived at Avon Park Bombing Range and is also up with RedHorse on 276.6.
======================
It is 10:30am and BENGAL 41, a flight of two F/A-18Ds from Beaufort MCAS
VMFA(AW)-224, has just arrived at Avon Park Bombing Range's Placid MOA. They
are up on 292.2 with Avon Range Control.
I am also hearing Homestead F-16s MAKO 11 on Miami Ctr freq 323.1, probably
to AAR with BOLT 41.
====================
Looks like there could be a traffic jam over Avon Park today. We still
have a bevy of PA-ANG A-10s TDY at Patrick scheduled for the range today, as
well as a TDY flight of AV-8B Harriers from Cherry Point. Yesterday they
performed in UAV exercises there, so the comms were a bit more unusual than the
normal strafing-bombing work.
