[Scan-DC] An almost scamble last night..

[dehm]

Sunday ~ 4:00 - 5:00 pm  04/30/2006
--------------------------------
124.65 - ATC calls ROSS 101 (FBI craft doing his "duties" in the area"
who ended up landing at Manassas (133.1 MHz...) and explains there is
a craft just ahead of him whom has lost or not established comms with
ATC. ROSS 101 volunteers to catch up to it and get the tail #. ATC
explains that they are about to scramble fighters on the craft if it
can't establish comms etc etc. ROSS 101 barely catches up but cannot
get a reading on it. ATC comes back saying that they have established
communications with the craft and ROSS 101 may go back to doing his
"duties". ROSS 101 shortly thereafter heads towards Manassas and
switches to their tower on 133.1. I never did hear the unid'd craft
neither on 124.65 or 121.5. Must have been off freq?

Anyways.. a scramble avoided!
