[MilCom] ID Help

[Ed Langworthy]

Mark and Adam,

A monitor on another list gave this information.

Aircraft Identification:  RACER 01 (C20 #91-0108/OSACOM/PAT)

This makes the most sense because he took off from Bangor after I made this post
and was headed Oceanic climbing up to FL410.

Hope this helps,
Ed

Ed,

Outside of the 181st FW (Which as Mark mentioned, Is now extinct); Only 
time I've heard the RACER call is a four ship consisting of x2 2nd FS 
F-15C's and x2 43rd FS F-22As (RACER-01, Ironically) that performed a 
Braves flyover last year.

RACER was used by the 181st FW out of Terre Haute, Indiana (IN ANG). 
That unit no longer has its F-16s as it has transitioned to a 
non-flying unit 
(181st Intelligence Wing). I'm not sure who would be using that 
callsign now.
