PENSACOLA ? Officials in Florida say a retired  astronaut died in a jet ski 
crash off Pensacola Beach. 
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission  officials say 
51-year-old Capt. Alan G. Poindexter was riding on a jet ski with  his 22-year-old son 
Sunday afternoon when his 26-year-old son crashed into them  with another 
jet ski. 
The Pensacola News Journal reports Zachary Poindexter hit the rear of the 
jet  ski, knocking his father into the water. 
Wildlife agency spokesman Stan Kirkland says Poindexter was pulled from the 
 water and taken to the beach where friends performed CPR. He died a short 
time  later at a hospital. Zachary Poindexter and his brother Samuel were 
not  injured. 
The fish and wildlife agency is investigating the crash. 
Poindexter piloted the Atlantis space shuttle in 2008.

Message-ID: <3bfd6.43b84105.3d3436a3@aol.com>

There was a program at Northrop Grumman which was to replace the JSTARS E-8 
 with a new plane.  It was to be based on a Boeing 767.  The program  was 
cancelled and the Boeing 767 that Northrop was using for development  is now 
in Europe.
 
I am trying to recall the designation of the plane and any information  
about its current ownership.

	replacement
Message-ID: <3c676.49739520.3d343ac1@aol.com>

Many thanks to the several folks who responded. 
The plane was the E-10.

The E-10 finally disappeared at the end  of FY2007 as budget pressures and 
competing priorities pushed it completely out  of the budget. The USAF 
maintained funding for the MP-RTIP radar and may  eventually put the radar on the 
E-8, or on a new aircraft, possibly the same  airframe as the next aerial 
tanker.  The smaller version of the MP-RTIP  AESA radar designed to be flown 
on the RQ-4B Global Hawk is being flight tested  on the Scaled Composites 
Proteus aircraft. Boeing had kept the E-10 prototype  (767-400ER) at Paine 
Field
in Everett, Washington until the prototype was  sold to Bahrain in January 
2009 for conversion into a VIP transport.

Subject: [MilAir] Fwd: [MilRadioComms] C-17A lands at wrong airport
Message-ID: <213d0.ef269ab.3d3b329c@aol.com>

 
Air Force officials are trying to figure out why an Air Force C-17  
Globemaster III cargo jet heading to MacDill AFB instead landed at Peter O.  Knight 
Airport in Tampa FL this afternoon. 
The plane, flown by a crew from the 305th Air Mobility Wing at McGuire AFB 
in  New Jersey, was arriving from Southwest Asia carrying 23 passengers and 
19 crew  when it made an "unscheduled landing," according to Sgt David 
Carbajal, a  McGuire spokesman. There appears to have been no damage to the 
aircraft or the  airport, said Carbajal. 
Air Force officials still do not know why the plane landed at the small  
civilian airfield on Davis Islands. The incident, said Carbajal, is under  
investigation. 
The Air Force is planning to move the plane, said Carbajal, who did not  
immediately have details about how or when. 
The flight was in support of U.S. Central Command, based at MacDill, 
Carbajal  said. 
Mistaken landings at nearby airfields are not unheard of across the 
country,  but most occur at night by commercial or general aviation pilots. In 
1980, a  Delta Air Lines Boeing 727 bound for Tampa International Airport with 
90  passengers landed safely in bad weather at MacDill. 
The main runway at Peter O. Knight is 3,580 feet long and 100 feet wide,  
aligned in the same direction as MacDill's runway that is 11,421 feet long 
and  151 feet wide. 
An unloaded C-17 is able to take off on an austere runway 90 feet wide and 
as  short as 3,000 feet load, depending upon its fuel load and local 
temperatures,  according to various Air Force and Government Accountability Office  
documents. 
Ryan Gucwa, a pilot, was getting ready to get in his Piper Navajo and take  
off from the airport when he looked up and saw "this huge C-17 coming in 
over  the top of the shipping port." 
Seeing military airplanes over Peter O. Knight was not unusual, Gucwa said, 
 but "this was only 100 feet off the ground and that is bizarre. Once the 
wheels  touched the ground, I was terrified that there was no way to stop in 
time." 
The nose landing gear of the cargo jet stopped about six to 10 feet from 
the  end of the runway, said Gucwa, who took cell phone video of the landing. 
The plane, he said, had markings from McGuire Air Force Base in New Jersey. 
 Officials there would not immediately comment. 
The landing surprised people who work in downtown Tampa office towers. 
Frank Kilgore, a pricing manager for Hapag-Lloyd, an international shipping 
 firm with office in the Suntrust Tower, said he heard someone in his 
office yell  that the plane was on a final approach to the small municipal 
airport on Davis  Islands. 
"I knew immediately that it was not right," Kilgore said. 
Commercial real estate broker Jason Donald was looking out his office 
window  in a downtown skyscraper and saw the plane pass low over the fuel tanks 
in the  Port of Tampa, then turn south towards Peter O. Knight. 
"I face directly over the Bay and saw that plane come in so fast and 
thought  to myself 'Never in a million years is he going to make it,'" Donald 
said. "I  was waiting for flames." 
There seemed to be a moment when the pilot realized the mistake, Donald 
said,  but too late. 
"He was carrying so much speed, I thought, 'This is not going to happen,'" 
he  said. "If his front tire was not in the grass at the end of the runway, 
he was  darn close." 
It took about 17 seconds from the time the cargo jet's wheels touched down 
to  time it came to a screeching halt near the end of the runway, according 
to video  taken by Ryan Gucwa, who was at the scene. 
The Peter O. Knight Airport is not equipped with a control tower. Aircraft  
rely on radio communications for landings there. 
Federal Aviation Administration controllers at Tampa International Airport  
provide approach control to aircraft landing at MacDill and hand off 
aircraft to  the MacDill tower when aircraft are about 10 miles out. 
Peter O. Knight Airport is temporarily closed as the Air Force works to 
move  the plane, Tampa International spokeswoman Janet Zink said. Neither the 
C-17 nor  the airfield was damaged, airport and Air Force officials said.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -  
U.S. Air Force officials  say a local military installation is being 
evacuated because creepy critters  have made a home out of their building. 
Rats and mice ran amok in  Building 5-57 at Patrick AFB. 
The building houses  employees of a high-tech firm involved in launch 
countdowns on the Space  Coast. 
WESH 2 News stated asking  questions about the rats, and the Air Force 
investigated. They found the problem  to be so bad, they ordered everyone to 
leave by next week. 
The Air Force base says  they are working to resolve the issue.

Subject: [MilAir] ScanMarine, a new radio comms group
Message-ID: <d84f.665c495c.3d42e8c7@aol.com>

Since my good friend and former iScanMarine Listowner Jack Painter passed  
away nearly three years ago, there has been no control over the iScanMarine  
group, leaving it vulnerable to spammers and leaving it unable to flourish 
with  new memberships.
 
I have done all I could to adopt the iScanMarine Group, without  success.  
I have had emails with Yahoogroups over and over again for more  than 2 
years and made my argument that the Group should not be left to be taken  over 
by spammers.  Sometimes I got what I thought was an encouraging  response, 
but really never got close to being able to establish a new Listowner  or 
Moderator of the Group.
 
Several different YahooGroups management people have repeated to me their  
argument that because Jack had set the group to allow member email addresses 
to  be hidden, the Poll function of the Group was disabled, so there is no 
way for  members to elect a new Listowner/Moderator. I pleaded that it was 
such a waste  to just let the Group flounder and eventually fail, but my 
pleadings were not  successful.
 
I have created a Group called ScanMarine. Out of respect for Jack, I chose  
a name resembling the name of the group he founded. The site for the group  
is
_http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ScanMarine_ 
(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ScanMarine) .
 
You can join the group by going to 
_http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ScanMarine/join_ (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ScanMarine/join) 
 
Postings to the group will be messages, photographs and files related to  
the US Coast Guard, Search and Rescue (SAR), Civilian vessels, and Navy 
vessels  of all countries. Comms of interest are UHF, VHF and HF communications.
 
I will operate the Group in a hands-on manner, as I do with the other  
several radio-related Yahoogroups that I operate.

P-3C 156521 did some pattern work over Patrick AFB this afternoon.  My  
photos are not too good due to the rain, but I was able to clearly see the "LL" 
 symbol on his tail and the "521" on his nose.  So we can confirm BuNo  
156521 is still a NAS Jax VP-30 bird.

Boeing appears to be making another attempt at a JSTARS replacement based on 
a P-8 airframe,
the P-8 AGS:
