[Scan-DC] Possible Identification Pass by DC ANG F-16

[eMISSARY]

Interesting.. I heard someone comment on the wing of a cessna i believe.
Probably regarding the IFE.
It wasnt on FM it was def AM most likely UHF.. cause i tried scanning around
and couldn't hear anything.
I did however, hear a G-III working Andrews APR on 119.3 MHz (Potomac APR)
in the area yesterday or was it today =) .. they landed the other day.. or
was it today at Andrews and then departed =)
Didnt hear anything re: the Bullitt part
My question is why would the fighters fly so low or so loud if they're just
waiting to land
burning fuel? All of my friends heard it.


Sorry for the random info.. but maybe we can tie it all together somehow..
