NELLIS AFB (LSV/KLSV) - 2024

[747woody]

Arriving on March 14, pretty much after the recovery of the RF a/c, was an anonymous C-130J-30. FR24 showed this to be 08-8606, coming from Little Rock as 'Hive98'.

Saw it departing March on 17/3 as HIVE 98 (ID from ADSB).

Did anyone read off/confirm the two VX-9 F-35s that were at Nellis on 14th March (XE-105 and XE-106)?

This morning at Nellis, it was very quiet. There was a clearance given to VEGAS1, the TX F-16, however there was also a flight of 6 F22s departing as VEGAS1 later, so this VEGAS1 had to change callsigns. Good time to be back at the Speedway. At 1200 we left.
