[MilCom] Heads up Ohio: Buckeye, Sabre & Slam flights inbound

[rod jones]

Mid morning I caught 2 BUCKEYE flights entering the Bulldog MOA, both flights came in on 269.1,
KZTL Owing, SC, then to 335.65, KZTL Macon, Ga (I think, don't have my notes in front of me right
now), to 343.75, Bulldog MOA discrete. I was mobile at the time and wasn't able to find any A/A.
They entered at FL 250 to 260, then dropped to a lower altitude to work the MOA. The first flight
was 4 jets (missed the number) and BUCKEYE 31 was the second flight that came in a few minutes
later on the same routing. Heard the lead of the first flight say something about Orlando prior to
entering Bulldog so I guess they south when they finished.
