The 71st Fighter Squadron and 7th Fighter Training Squadron are back at the Savannah Combat Readiness Training Center/Air Dominance Center (CRTC/ADC) for the third time this year (previous visits were in January and May). They seem to be conducting a Sentry Savannah type exercise in the SEALORD controlled special use areas off the coast along with tanker support. This is the second week they've been here, but due to my work schedule I was unable to listen last week with the exception of Friday (and on Friday, weather kept the fighters on the ground). Last week, a 434th ARW KC-135 provided tanker support from Hunter AAF and today two 916th ARW KC-46s provided tanker support, coming from their home base at Seymour-Johnson AFB.

This activity may be called Sentry Mayhem. I haven't heard any references to the name on the air, but FAA ATCSCC Advisories have made reference to Sentry Mayhem airspace while the 71st FS and 7th FTS have been here this time. Unlike the last few exercises held out of the CRTC/ADC this year, the CRTC/ADC's social media accounts haven't posted anything about this one.
