Decades ago, when Tom Knietel first started publishing his lists (as stapled
paper lists, not yet as his "Top Secret Registry" books), he included a
previously-unknown list of Flight Test freqs with some of these same
numbers. Years later, these freqs also appeared on FCC-generated lists for
the major aerospace contractors.
314.6 seems to be a popular one around the country. It is one of the few
that I confirmed in use around South Florida, as it was later found to be
used as a tower and mission channel for the Pratt & Whitney engine plant in
Palm Beach County, Florida (also used by parent company United Technologies
and subsidiary Sikorsky Helicopters). It is still listed as such in the IFR
Supplement (see William P. Gwinn airport).
