[Scan-DC] McGuire IFE

[Rapbep@aol.com]

All,

In the early 1400 hour (EDT) caught Rocco 82 (KC-135, 141st/150th ARS, 
McGuire) on 138.875 trying to contact the SOF of 177th FW (NJ ANG, F-16s). 
Then Rocco was noted on 303.0 w/Torch Ops (McGuire) declaring an IFE.  

Rocco 82 wanted Torch Ops to notify the 177th FW that they would have to 
cancel their scheduled AAR and that they would be returning to McGuire. Rocco 
82 also wanted the emergency equipment and fire trucks to be scrambled just 
in case.  Rocco 82 indicated that they thought that they had a false 
indicator, just like a previous time, but were declaring and IFE just to be 
safe.

After they landed and were checked out by the emergency crews, they would 
taxi back to the hanger area and discharge the crew members.

I'm too far from McGuire to catch any of the approach/tower comms so I hope 
they landed safely.
