Note:  Caught the T-38's mentioned earlier late this evening with Center enroute Louisville then Wright-Patterson (KFFO).  I think they skipped the Louisville portion due to weather (mentioned seeing lightning in the distance).  They were to do a practice approach at Louisville (KSDF) only then to Wright-Pat.  Also earlier (failed to get a time) heard brief comms on 250.3 (VMFA-224 TAC-1) reporting Louisville ATIS (landing RWY 17L and 17R), i think i remember them checking off as BENGAL 41 x ? (at least 2).
