[MilCom] Heritage Flight Conference at DMAFB 3-5 March 06

[Duane Mantick]

 Good job on this post!!!  Keep it coming, because with many places no
longer
having airshows the opportunities for many of us are fewer so we have to
make
the most of what there is.

Bruce et al,

 Get ready for the Heritage Flight Conference at DMAFB !!!

 This years qualifications will include the F-22A!!!

 According to the Desert Airman, the base newspaper, they will host
eveything from "P-40 to P-47s to P-51s, up to and including the F-15E and
F-22A this years."  You've already see the F-4's.  I drove on base and
verified 4 F-16's from Shaw and 2 F-15's, tails of SJ, and one other F-15.

 There where also be some pyrotechnics for the A-10's and F-15E's.

 "Anyone on base is welcome to come out and see the old warbirds, as well as
our newest fighter, the F-22A"

 Just like previous years, they will have viewing area located in front of
Base Ops.  The flight schedule begins at 12:15pm on the 3rd and ends at 5pm
on the 5th of March.

 One special note from the Base Newspaper:

 "Photos are allowed, however, there may be security requirements for the
F-22A."  If this is anything like they treat us when we try to photograph
the F-117, we won't be able to photograph it on the ground.  We'll have to
see :)

  Here are some recommended frequencies, which are of course subject to
change, based upon the last two years' conferences at DM:

120.00mhz
122.475mhz
123.15mhz
127.15mhz - Heritage Flight Discrete
136.575mhz - P-51
376.025mhz - F-15 Discrete
118.85mhz/253.50mhz - DM Tower
121.80mhz/275.80mhz - DM Ground
138.50mhz/327.70mhz - DM SOF
376.025mhz - F-15 Discrete

Here are some Raptor freqs that I've collected from other groups over time.
I can not say for sure these will work :
120.75000
121.00000
123.55000
132.05000
133.10000
139.77500
142.20000
225.45000
251.25000
225.72500
230.27500
230.77500
266.50000
280.70000
289.40000
292.70000
299.20000
318.10000
325.10000
325.90000
343.70000
346.30000
348.70000
349.40000

Hi All,
Caught this very interesting c/s this afternoon and was lucky enough to
visually see these guys.  A flight of 4 F-4E's landed at DMA (253.5) at
about 4:00.  It has been a long time since I have seen such a sight, they
were in a very tight formation until they made their break over
Davis-Monthan.  It was great to see the old birds flying.

Shortly before their approach, a flight of 2 F-16's c/s Kermit made a low
approach and then headed to Gila Bend Range.
