2:08PM FLYER 1 is tail number 80-0152 and is cleared to contact.  Seems like
the FLYERS have switched air to air freq to 141.80 (AM Mode).
2:11PM FLYER 2 is cleared in. (301.60).  Didn't get a tail number for FLYER
2.
2:13PM Seems like the ride is a bit bumpy.  Tanker is coming right (301.60).
2:14PM The FLYERS are wrapped up and notify SLUFF that the other two ship is
about 5 Minutes out and are coming in at 16,000 feet.  They are going to
drop below 16,000.
2:15PM FLYER 1 and UGLY 1 air to air on 141.80 relaying positions.

2:24PM UGLY has SLUFF in sight (301.60). They are coordinating their
join-up.
2:26PM UGLY 1 cleared to contact (301.60).
2:30PM - Sounds like UGLY 1 is done and UGLY 2 is cleared in (301.60).
2:31PM - The UGLIES are done and are going to stick around in the DUKE to do
a little work.
2:32PM - FLYER 1 to ZOB-Wayland (353.85) they will RTB Willow Grove. FLYERS
are at 11,000 feet and will take the usual direct ETX VOR then Willow Grove.
They have the flash (squak).
2:34PM - FLYER 1 switches to ZNY 338.30.
2:36PM - UGLY 1 to ZOB-Wayland on 353.85 at 16,000 looking for clearance
back to Willow Grove.
2:37PM - UGLY 1 requests lower since it seems clearer, wants down to 9,000
feet (353.85). They'll also go direct ETX and then Willow Grove.
2:39PM - UGLIES "Push 17" and come up on 338.30 (ZNY). They are at 9,000
feet headed direct ETX.

And when they're that low, I won't pick them up again.  Adios Amigos!
