Is Winter coming early in the Northern Hemisphere? In September 2022, Talons from Atlantic Southeast Florida decided to migrate to Pacific Northwest Idaho.

The U.S. Air Force’s (USAF) 2d Fighter Training Squadron is based on Tyndall Air Force Base (AFB), in Florida. From the 12th through to the 23rd, of September, the 3rd Generation T-38 Talons flew around Idaho, helping the USAF teach its youngest bird, the 5th Generation F-35A Lightning-2 (which had also flown north from Luke AFB, Arizona), how to fly.

According to Captain Ryan ‘Joker’ McCooey, of the 61st Fighter Squadron’s B-Flight, the training over Mountain Home AFB is the final schooling of a long F-35 program taught mainly on Luke AFB: “At the end of their six-to-eight month basic course, students put together all the building blocks we have taught them throughout the course into these Capstone rides where they do both air-to-air and air-to-ground [tactics] during the same sortie. They get to practice all the things we taught them in a large force exercise, integrating with different assets that we don’t always have the ability to do at Luke.”

Final F-35 training is usually done over Mountain Home AFB, against the F-15E Strike Eagle, but I believe this is the first time the T-38 Talon was involved.

While over Idaho, the Florida Talons play the ‘bad guy’ (Red Air) against the Arizona Lightning-2s. Playing the bad guy has been the forte of the T-38 trainer for decades, all the way back to the days of the non-declared, non-official, Cold War.

While launching from Mountain Home AFB, Idaho, the T-38 Talons helped qualify six F-35A pilots, and help upgrade the qualifications of four other pilots to instructor status.

The concept of aircraft generations was started by U.S. air historian Richard P. Hallion, back in the 1990s, but it wasn’t until Russia adopted the concept that it became standard in the United States (apparently it was Russia who first referred to the USAF F-22 Raptor as a 5th Generation fighter).

Facebook’s Fact Checkers are not “non-partisan”!

October 11, 2022 Hutchins AAron

Facebook (which is the one who labeled the British Medical Journal’s reports about problems with Pandemic immunizations as being false or hoaxes) uses a so called fact checking network that is run by Poynter Institute, in Florida.

Poynter Institute is a private 501(c)(3)non-profit institution, supposedly not part of the state of Florida’s taxpayer funded education system.

Facebook/Meta outright lies about Poynter Institute being “non-partisan”. Poynter Institute publishes its own newspapers/magazine and owns three fact checking operations; International Fact-Checking Network, MediaWise and PolitiFact. They are self certified fact checkers, no government institution blessed their fact checking abilities!

Also, the Columbia Review Journal labeled one of the newspapers of Poynter Institute to be “a liberal voice on Florida’s conservative west coast.” Not so non-partisan.

Here’s another Yankee taxpayer feather in the cap of the British Empire’s (Commonwealth of Nations) military industrial complex; the new EC-37B has arrived!

USAF photo by Airman First Class Vaughn Weber, 17AUG2022.

Sometime in August 2022 (not sure because the date of the U.S. Air Force [USAF] video says the 3rd, but the photos are dated the 17th), a naked (not yet painted) EC-37B Cross Deck-Compass Call landed at Davis Monthan Air Force Base(AFB), in Arizona.

USAF video by Airman First Class Vaughn Weber:

The EC-37B Cross Deck-Compass Call electronic warfare aircraft is replacing the retiring EC-130H Compass Call. The EC-37B is made by the notorious United Kingdom based BAE Systems.

The old, yet reliable, EC-130H is a military plane from the start, yet the new EC-37B is not; it is based on the Gulfstream G550 business jet. The U.S. Congress has already paid for at least four EC-37Bs, and has left the door open for additional purchases through 2025! Snake-oil salesmen claim the EC-37B is more survivable than a C-130H (what ever-dude, I used to Crew Chief C-130Hs, and rode on many C-130Es and Hs in my life, I know it is one the toughest aircraft in USAF inventory)!

USAF photo by Airman First Class Vaughn Weber, 17AUG2022.

Gulfstream is a U.S. company, but according to the USAF the EC-37B electronic warfare version is built by United Kingdom’s BAE.

Businesswire September 2022: BAE Systems makes milestone delivery for inaugural EC-37B Compass Call

(In the late 1990s, under the Bill Clinton regime, MES began taking over U.S. defense contractors. In 1999, MES and BAe merged to create BAE Systems, apparently to stop a U.S. defense contractor from taking over MES. In 2001, the same year the False Flag War on Terror began, BAE Systems aggressively invaded the U.S. defense industry, taking over many U.S. companies, including cyber security companies.)

The military version of the G550 platform has already been in use by the United States; the U.S. Navy has been using different versions of the C-37A/NC-37B, at a cost to Yankee taxpayers of $64-million for each plane! At least four aircraft in use, one C-37A since 2002, three C-37Bs since 2005, and one NC-37B since 2018. The USAF also uses the C-37A/B, spending as much as $55-million per aircraft (apparently they got a better deal)!

The Commonwealth of Nation’s Australia and Singapore already operate similar electronic warfare versions of the G550.

The Balfour Declaration of 1926 created a new form of the British Empire called The Commonwealth of Nations. Members are not truly independent, they are autonomous and supposedly ‘voluntary members’, yet they are required to maintain “allegiance to the Crown”.

In 1949, it was declared that the King/Queen of England is now the official boss of The Commonwealth.

And don’t think it isn’t expanding: “The Commonwealth’s roots go back to the British Empire. But today any country can join the modern Commonwealth. The last country to join the Commonwealth was Rwanda in 2009.”

Agent Orange/Chem-Trails: USAF dusts Idaho with chemicals, in the name of fighting wildfires!

Video October 10, 2022 Hutchins AAron

I discovered that in September 2020, of The Pandemic, the U.S. Air Force (USAF) conducted herbicide spraying over a part of Idaho, claiming that it was an attempt to prevent wildfires by killing Cheatgrass.

U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Christina Russo, 22SEP2020.

The operation was launched from Mountain Home Air Force Base (AFB), using a USAF Reserve 910th Airlift Wing (AW) C-130H Hercules ‘Weed Whacker’ out of Ohio. The USAF also claimed that their herbicide mission would somehow not affect the endangered Sagebrush, and they were actually trying to protect the Sagebrush by targeting Cheatgrass.

The spraying took place over the Saylor Creek bombing & gunnery range near Mountain Home AFB.

USAF video explainer, by Staff Sergeant Juliet Louden, how the mission of the C-130H Weed Whacker is planned:

USAF photo by Senior Airman Christina Russo, 22SEP2020.

Cheatgrass is considered an invasive species, brought into North America by European illegal immigrants, oops, I mean settlers. Apparently animals do not like to eat Cheatgrass, due to its short life cycle and low nutrition, it is blamed as a major cause for the decline of a bird called Sage Grouse. Once Cheatgrass gets established it prevents native plants from growing. A top problem associated with Cheatgrass is wildfires. It is bad, mmm-kay.

USAF photo by Senior Airman Christina Russo, 22SEP2020.

From September 14th through 25th, the Weed Whacker flew 1-hundred feet above ground level, at 2-hundred knots ground speed, dumping 19-thousand-979 gallons of diluted herbicide over 3-thousand-50 acres. The crop dusting over Saylor Creek Training Range takes place every year (has the Cheatgrass become resistant?).

Some Weed Whacker video by Staff Sergeant Juliet Louden, 23SEP2020:

The 910th AW’s C-130H Weed Whacker is also used for spraying insecticides, and oil dispersants onto oil spills. It is the only ‘large aircraft’ used by the USAF to conduct spray missions.

From July 21st through August 29th, of 2022, Southwestern Idaho was invaded by AH-64D ‘Longbow’ Apaches from the state of Arizona and the tiny British empire member (Commonwealth of Nations) of Republic of Singapore.

The Republic of Singapore Air Force has a unit based in Arizona called Peace Vanguard. They are there to learn how to operate the Longbow from the Arizona Army National Guard. Part of that training brings them to Idaho’s Orchard Combat Training Center (OCTC) for gunnery.

Idaho is home of a new kind of gunnery range called DAGIR (Digital Air Ground Integrated Range), one of only three in the U.S., which was opened for testing in March 2021, and officially certified for use by AH-64s in March of 2022.

F-15 50th Anniversary: Last Hurrah for Oregon’s 173rd FW?

Oregon Air National Guard’s 173rd Fighter Wing (FW) trained with U.S. Marines, on Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, in California. But this year might be the last time.

Oregon Air National Guard photo by Senior Master Sergeant Jennifer Shirar, 14AUG2022.

In August 2022, Oregon’s F-15C Eagles (along with 125th FW F-15s out of Florida) played ‘bad guy’ against USMC F/A-18C/D Hornets from Marine Fighter Attack Training Squadron 101 (VMFAT-101), and the F-35B Lightning-2 from Marine Fighter Attack Training Squadron 502 (VMFAT-502).

Oregon Air National Guard video report by Staff Sergeant Emily Copeland:

Oregon Air National Guard video interview by Senior Master Sergeant Jennifer Shirar, 23AUG2022:

Recently, it was revealed that the 173rd has been ordered to get rid of its F-15C Eagles. That means this year’s deployment to Miramar might be the last, at least with their F-15C Eagles.

Oregon Air National Guard photo by Senior Master Sergeant Jennifer Shirar, 14AUG2022.

For almost 40 years the 173rd FW’s Kingsley Field served as the only F-15C training base for the U.S. Air Force! But starting in 2024, the 173rd will be using the brand new F-15EX Eagle-2.

Then, in September 2022, it was officially revealed that Oregon’s Air National Guard was retiring all of its F-15C Eagles!

Quick excerpt from 173rd Fighter Wing video report, by Staff Sergeant Emily Copeland, even though it is dated 09SEP2022, and boasts of how great the F-15C is, it does not mention the 2022-23 retirement of those aircraft:

There will still be Eagles in the air over Oregon, the F-15Cs are being replaced with new build F-15EXs (aka Eagle-2), hopefully starting in 2024.

Just a few months before the 50th Anniversary of the first flight what is probably the best combat aircraft ever employed by the U.S. Air Force, the state of Oregon decided to cannibalize one of its F-15Cs.

It is no April Fool’s Joke, after stripping the F-15C of usable parts, on 01APR2022, personnel with Oregon Air National Guard’s 173rd Fighter Wing loaded the worn out Eagle onto a flatbed trailer, to be hauled-off to the ‘Boneyard’ of Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, in Arizona.

On 13SEP2022, the Oregon Air National Guard revealed that, after 24 years of service, all its F-15C Eagles were on the chopping block! Not all of them; on 11SEP2022, eight Oregon Eagles were transferred to the Israeli air force, under the guise of Foreign Military Sales (which are usually taxpayer subsidized).

In July 2022, tail number 78-0515 was sent to work for NASA (National Aeronautics Space Administration). It is hoped that most of the Eagles will end up with the National Museum of the United States Air Force, for public displays, however, the reality is most will end up in the Boneyard.
