Scramble Messageboard

Hi Joost, According a message on FC Blue61 KC135 out of Mildenhall only collected F16V 005 out of Tanagra and dropped him off at Charleroi. It had a Retro callsign. The message also said the SW's hadn't moved. What could have happened Blue61 had, besides 005, possible SP stragglers from a former de...

Heard on several (Ops) Freqs:
Snow clearing vehicle is stuck at Runway 06, fire brigade is needed to free him.

On the 4th USAF F-16's were heard on SABCA Ops freq and used them as an inflight freq. They went south and I believe to join with BLUE.
That same flight later on was back and went into Spangdahlem. Their callsign was Retro.

From what I heard, next year several F-16's will be saved as they will be instructional airframes at the "Leerdocks" at Volkel, Leeuwarden, Woensdrecht and Eindhoven. This most likley will mean, that some OCU F-16's present at those leerdocks, will be reduced to scrap. Which F-16's are instructiuon...

BAF501 (FA-89/44F109) has just flown past my window at 14,900'. Unfortunately due heavy scattered cloud I could not tell if it was a solo (and if I should find out that FA-126 was it's unseen buddy.... :censored: :censored: ) The NAF43 (T-235) was presumably doing the tanking. This morning there wa...

Nu boven Drenthe "KDIAK74" van oost naar west op FL220 en 202KTS. ADSBex kent het toestel (nog) niet. Vertrek was vanaf Hannover-Langenhagen. Welke kist is dit? Now over Drenthe province (NL) callsign "KDIAK74" from east to west at FL220 en 202Kts, coming from Hannover-Langenhagen. ADSBex has no id...

AE0433 is now plotting overhead Belgium, as RCH583 (23rd Nov)

F-16 showing as J-062 mode-s wise, currently airborne as COWBOY21. Not sure why it is removed from the operational list. Because this is her first flight since 2015! Jordy I know, but she was never (as far as I am aware) slated to be withdrawn. She lost her airworty certificate, and I believe a lot...

Sun November 1st, two Australian aircraft are chatting along on 137.000; seems they are on a delivery flight and were asked the question why this route. The answer was they normally fly via the pacific but covid prevented that. It is another five days before they reach their destination. They are sh...

Wie kan mij helpen aan de radiofrequente tussen Lumen en Bulam (610) Belgie - Engeland of vv. Andre Ik moest even schakelen en het duurde even voordat ik doorhad waarover je het had. Antwoord is totaal afhankelijk van de hoogte. Westbound zijn ze al vaak overgezet naar London 118.480 (118.475) of 1...

Not sure if this can be helpfull (or if it is common knowledge) but I just noticed the following from my personal Mode-s logs: AE0443: Always tactical callsign in 7x series (the latter I believe is common knowledge) AE0449: Always tactical callsign in 7x series (the latter I believe is common knowle...

Another funny thing,

These freqs changed already some months ago (About March or April) and have been used since.
301.100 was notamed in July already.

They were talking about refueling themselves, not the B-52's. Believe the issue they mentioned earlier was difference between FAA and ICAO regulations and decided to cancel their AAR plans between each other. (My guess about AAR above populated area's or outside refuel track) They swapped positions ...
