[Scan-DC] 234.6 ACTIVE/2:14PM/Southern MD

[RANGERRICK at flash.net]

All,

Just a point of clarification, "Magic" is the day-to-
day mission call sign of both RAF 8 Sqn from RAF 
Waddington E-3Ds ("Magic 8X") and NATO AWACS NE-3As 
from Geilenkirchen NATO Airbase which uses "MAGIC 1X, 
2X, 3X" for the three operational squadrons and one 
training squadron.  The pointy end uses the c/s: "NATO 
XX" under the same schema above.
