Thank you for the Vance birds.Those guys are over my house all the time.
Re: AETC T-6 Texans
I look forward to seeing the Vance T-6s in action. I am curious as to what callsigns are associated with 71st FTW.
When I flew T-37s there we had "Ball" for 8th FTS and "Hydra" for 33rd FTS. Along with their Instructor's 2 digit assigned number. I was typically Hydra 61, 63, 66, and what not.
Initial pattern only solo used "Scare"
Pattern only solos carried their instructor's number after they parked to drop the instructor off and returned to the pattern. Scare 62...
All other solos used "Curly" and a number assigned by scheduler.
And even still we used a different set of callsigns for formations and for cross-country/Out and backs.
I remember using "Brama" on a couple of formation flights.
"Ratr" was our standard 33rd FTS for anything leaving the local training area, but I don't recall what 8th FTS used for cross countries.
The last thing you wanted to hear while either in the MOAs, pattern, or even in the RSO tower was a bunch of Curly or Scare calls for Bingo or Joker fuel...

Re: AETC T-6 Texans
Anyone running a good AFD for Vance AFB that will park all the Talons, Toners, and Texans?
Great job on the package, any luck with the NAS Corpus Christi Texans?

I just remembered 8th FTS used Bison for their local callsigns and Ball for out and backs.
Re: AETC T-6 Texans
I just redid my own AFCAD for Vance. PM me your email and I'll send it along if you want to test it.Victory103 wrote:Anyone running a good AFD for Vance AFB that will park all the Talons, Toners, and Texans?
