AH64E

Post by Snoop 95 » Fri Nov 17, 2023 10:09 am

Thee AAC Apaches have been quite busy round here recently and all of them have been the new model AH64E. Am I correct in thinking that these are rebuilds of the old airframes?

No. They are BRAND NEW airframes, with some kit fitted from the old ones.

In the Wattisham area I hear them on 125.80 then as they move north on Lakenheath 128.90 then further north they call Marham 343.975/124.15. If they continue north then they are handed off to Coningsby otherwise they go to Holbeach and use the Holbeach primary or secondary range freqs

STANTA they use 338.80
