All,
Today, in the 0900 hour (EDT) had Mafia 74 and an unidentified Venus aircraft
up in A-A chat on 142.75 AM. This is normally the Venus Control freq at
Andrews so they were probably using it as an A-A since it's one of their pre-sets.
The Venus aircraft was coordinating their navigational routes with Mafia 74.
In their chat Venus asked Mafia 74 to use Tacan 92X as an A-A freq instead of
92Y, which they didn't have. Mafia 74 was trailing the Venus aircraft about 5
miles to his right and about 4,000 ft lower in altitude.
This is the first time I've heard the Mafia callsign used by Andrews
aircraft. Must be a new 99th AS call.
Anyone have the freqs for 92X & 92Y so I could plug them in my scanner just
in case.
