Hi Everyone,

I was lucky enough one January morning a few years ago, while flying from Redding, Ca to Sacramento, CA just south of Beale AFB we received an alert from Oakland center of unidentified traffic two miles opposite direction descending for Beale on the ILS. Just above the cloud layer and in perfect site was a U-2. We received TCAS alerts as he passed by our left wing and we were able to see the pilots helmet inside. That’s one of best traffic calls I have ever had! Awesome.

Dave
