328.025: TRIBE-58, (C-17A, Altus), land Colorado Springs. Picking up AF

275.80:  STUD-21, flight of 2, (F-16, Buckley), cleared Cheyenne MOA. (2

((Went MARSA with REDEYE flight on the first sortie. And the 4-ship did a 
fly-by in the Colorado Springs area. Possibly AF Academy))
319.00:  KING-01, (Unk jet type), with Denver Center, FL 280. Switch 306.90
and 316.125. ((Definitely NOT a C-130. Pilot wearing a mask))
289.40:  TRIBE-58, (C-17A, Altus), with OVERLOOK, (AF Academy jump 
controller),
and also Scenic Control (AF Academy fly-by coordinator). Will do two passes. 
Will
drop 5 jumpers on the first pass, and 6 on the second.
289.40:  ?COLFAT?-1, flight of 2, (T-45), fly-by AF Academy. (Wierd). 
((COLFAT is as close as I could get to whatever his callsign was))
372.20:  DILLON-1, (C-21A, CO-ANG), takeoff Colorado Springs. Return later.
239.025: REACH 6274, (Unk), land Colorado Springs. ((Still don't know who

Buckley))

to reach Peterson on 328.025 and 318.05. Finally broadcasts in the blind. 
((You'd think with all the money spent on that base down there they could get 
Command Post or PTD some radios that could pick up aircraft more than one mile 
away. Geez!!))
328.025: JOSA-523, (C-21A, Peterson), takeoff Colorado Springs. ((Also making 
snarky comments about Peterson's radios; or lack of same))

for about 15 minutes between 11,000 and 8,000 feet; then recovering at Peterson.
Working with Academy Tower on 124.15. Don't know what that's all about.
328.025:  JOSA-221, (C-21A), futile calls to Knight Ops, (Peterson).
