[MilCom] Prowlers returning from Iraq

[Rene Hugtenburg]

Hi everyone,

Three EA-6Bs Prowlers returned from Iraq to Cherry Point this
afternoon, here is a short log via several webradio's.

At 1430z Blue 31 flight checked in with New York on 125.925,
requesting a seperate clearance for Mazda 71-73 to Cherry Point.
Then at 1436z the New York controller asked Blue 31 to have the
Mazda flight come up on 125.925 and a little later Mazda 71 flight
checked in and their position was confirmed by New York as 10 miles
west of Dovey. They were then cleared direct to Sea Isle (SIE) and
instructed to maintain fl. 220. At 1456z Mazda 71 was cleared to
New York on 132.150 or 354.000, they checked in on 354.000 but I
didn't hear anything anymore after that.

The KC-10 Blue 31 was originally filed to Travis AFB, but while
he was working Boston center he requested a divert into KWRI. He
was heard calling McGuire CP at 1512z with his inbound call, 30
minutes out, status A1 and he gave his tailnumber as 84-0185.

These are Prowlers from NAS Whidbey Island and they should be
departing back home over the next few days. A small soundclip
is available for anyone interested.

Hope this is usefull,


René.
