Fairly active day. Slick runways still scaring off fighter types. 

372.20:  JOSA-917, (C-21A, Peterson), takeoff Colorado Springs.
372.20:  JOSA-859, (C-21A), takeoff Colorado Springs.
121.00:  JOSA-917, (C-21A, Peterson), land; then on to Boeing Field.
291.675: TALON-11, (T-45C, VT-7, Meridian), land; then on to Twin Falls, ID. 
((Made about 4 passes at the runway before he decided the packed snow was 
patchy enough to allow a safe landing))
239.025: ???-511, (Unk), with Colorado Springs Approach. Switch Denver 
Approach 128.45. ((Was possibly ROCKET-511 (T-39, Pensacola). Never did hear a 
callsign. May have landed at Jeffco.))
291.675: VALLEY-11, (T-6A, Vance), land; then out VFR to Grand Junction.
291.675: FAST-11, (T-38, Whiteman), inbound to Buckley, but decided the RCR 
of 10 (poor) wouldn't hack it. Diverted to Colorado Springs.
239.025: DUKE-73, (T-38, Vance), land Colorado Springs.
291.675: CATMAN-1, (T-38), also diverting from Buckley to Colorado Springs 
due to runway braking action being right at his minimum. ((May be a Whiteman 
bird as he was coming from Holloman with a final destination of Whiteman.))

298.40:  ROCCO-81, (KC-135, NJ-ANG), with High Country Control; looking for 
the latest 
EAM traffic. Evidently High Country doesn't get that stuff as he hasn't a 
clue what ROCCO is talking about.

emergency and diverts to Colorado Springs.
