Rumor has it that this 414 is not supposed to be parked there, and the owner is getting billed a daily rate for parking there.

How was the action up here today? I didn't get a chance to go to the airport, but it seems like the tankers flew to NM shortly after I drove by the airport.

Hey all, new to the forum here. I'm based up in Prescott, and while we don't get quite the level of activity the major fields get, we do get our fair share of fun activity. Here's some modern military action from the past year or so, civilian and warbirds to follow.

Well, not quite the March roundup, as this HMH-366 CH-53E came in earlier today. Always fun seeing an east coast squadron out here.

That's a good variety of aircraft fly through Prescott Brian, nice catch.

Thank you! Had a Chinook come in today, so hopefully going to get that departing tomorrow. We may be small and very busy with flight training, but we do get some fun traffic every couple weeks or so.
It's been so busy, doing a mid-April update.

Army Reserve CH-47F, turns out this is one of the four ship I caught about a month before. Always fun to get on the ramp with the crew!

This bronze G450 seems to be following me around, including across state lines. Not that I'm complaining.

ENJJPT T-6A, one of four that stopped by for some gas and food.

Right after the USAF T-6s arrived, this Navy one decided to join the fun and stop by. By pure chance, turns out they were all headed to the same place.
Not quite done with April, but some good stuff in the past 10 days

AZNG came over to the ERAU campus to pick up some ROTC cadets and fly them up to Camp Navajo for some training. I will never get sick of shooting in the early morning light.

The return flight was a little less ideal lighting wise, but it was still fun to shoot the pair of Black Hawks from closer than you'd normally get at any other public location.

Another Embry Riddle sponsored event, a pair of Laughlin AFB trainers came over to KPRC to let students walk around and ask questions. They brought the 85FTS heritage bird, with a scheme commemorating the 47th Bombardment Wing, which looked absolutely stunning at 6:45am in front of Granite Mountain

They also brought a T-1A, seen here laying down some jelly on a spirited departure. This was my first time seeing one, and since they're going away at some point, it was fun to get to shoot it.

And somehow, a completely unrelated pair of Laughlin T-6s showed up for gas and lunch an hour before the ERAU sponsored ones did, so we all got to watch their departure from the ramp.
Fire Season has begun, and the tanker base up here in Prescott is active as always.

Bombardier CL-604 Challenger
And this, which I know isn't up to normal quality standards, but is way too unique not to include. A B-52 did a low approach in Prescott last week, this was shot from my house about 4.5 miles away. I've never seen one in the air before, and I cannot believe Prescott, Arizona, would be the place I'd see my first.

Thank you! Prescott is a bit sporadic when it comes to unique traffic, never know what may come in and when, but fire season is definitely a busy time, especially if the scene is close by.
