Seasons greetings all,
I thought that this year I would combine some of my airplane photos into a
calendar. I took these at various air shows and while monitoring military
aircraft.

Just coincidentally, a T-38 from Whiteman AFB was seen landing at Palmdale
near dusk and they usually the callsign FAST......he might've come thru here
on the way up there.

Indeed, off 32. He was pretty loud. It has to be FAST 51, it had the F-16
radio sound.

Hey Gang,

Now what I find even more interesting than the F-16s is the E6B. Not so much the
fact that they landed at March, but that they headed up towards Idaho Falls.
More than likely it was from the VQ-3 west coast det, buno 162782.

So how often do those E6Bs visit you folks at March? Do they occasionally head
for idaho Falls? Do they always use 4 letter calls?  Inquiring minds back east
are real curious.

Thanks, 73 and good hunting,

This one was 278.3 - 318.2, on take off kept in the left turn till about 330

Missed that one, but only saw the one NM ANG on the ramp. I think one or
both of the HYPER's were returning to Fresno about that time.

Did anyone catch a F-16 that blasted out of March Field at about 12:50-55?

Loud as hell, it had to be GE powered. Caught a faint transmission on 125.65

December 7, 2009 |  7:33 am



Predator drones, the unmanned aircraft used by the U.S. military in the Iraq and
Afghanistan war zones, will soon be employed to track illegal immigrants on the
Mexico-California border.



The drone, which will be unveiled later today, will be operated out of the
Antelope Valley by the military contractor General Atomics. The drones will fly
above the border region with advancing electronic tracking equipment looking for
illegal immigrants crossing into California.



According to the San Diego-based company, the drones will transmit information
to U.S. authorities on human smuggles as well drug smuggling.



Such drones are already used on the border of Texas and Arizona.



Border Patrol officials told SignOn San Diego that the drone would initially be
used to monitor ocean area, which has been used by human smugglers.

about 0900 hours PST, maybe somebody was performing maintenance on LongRifle's
transmitters as a little while later the VHF freq (123.200) was running just a
carrier

A flight of two AV-8B's of VMA-311 arrived at KSLI today at 1556 local time.

The LAPD is advising news outlets that military flight training over the
Western San Fernando Valley and Central Los Angeles County will continue
after 5pm this evening. Time to fire up the airbands!

Oh good, thats cool. Thanks for the info.
