There was a pretty extensive test last night with aircraft from Area 51, TTR and Edwards. The test lasted from 9:20pm until 3:38am.

Test aircraft were Saber 41 from Area 51 and Night 21 and 22 from TTR, almost certainly F-117's. Test controller on 375.800 MHz was Ramrod, airspace controller Blond Girl.

Refueling was provided by tanker Ghost 66, a KC-135R #57-1506 coming from Edwards AFB in the Reveille MOA.

Before the test Greyhound 1 (N654BA) from TTR did some calibration runs over the range on 126.600 MHz.

In the first part of the attached audio clip Night 21 and 22 are flying some sort of formation, then Night 21 returns to TTR and Saber 41 from Groom joins Night 22 for the second part of the test.
