[MilCom] Combat exercise

[JohnFB]

Kewl .... we've had a couple of those in New England over the past 2 1/2 years, usually with a Coast Guard Falcon Jet posing as a 'distressed' aircraft [using the ficticious callsign of Bertal Air].

I remember one was a 'hijacking' in '07 and the other in '08 was 'co-pilot breakdown.'

The 2007 exercise featured a player that sounded like ZOOM, which is very similar to what you heard [ZEUS], and also using 260.900.  I was never able to ID ZOOM.
