Hi everyone,
    I heard some conversations from ATC to military aircraft today.  Here is 
what I logged:

Time: 13:45

119.85 MHz -    I heard a plane identified as Marines contact DCA approach 
on VHF(!) to land at Andrews AFB.



Time: 21:05

Lots of activity on 132.775 (Irons - south of DC?) for about 5-10 minutes. I 
couldn't hear the military aircraft on 351.8 because my Pro-64 doesn't cover 
225-380 MHz.

Cody 216   C-141: USAF 445AW / 356AS / 452TFS ?  I don't know which way it 
was heading.  Sorry.


Heard ATC call Crow 31 on the same frequency.  The plane was headed south to 
Langly, but the ATC handed Crow 31 to Norfolk approach?

During this time, the ATC told military aircraft flying north to watch out 
for other military traffic (!) such as C-130 / 135s and F-16s.  Not many 
commercial planes heard this time but I heard of them.


I hear several Eagle flights flying above the DC/Baltimore area everyday.  
Anyone know who/what they are? Thanks.


As usual, comments and information is welcomed.
