Looks like the Air Force is having a little fun today with their E-4B doomsday planes.
I photographed Flash (31667) at Dyess Air Force Base in Abilene, I think back in 2014.

They're burning a lot of jet A at those altitudes too.

I’ve noticed a ton of P3 traffic this week out here. Turns out there’s rather large exercise going in SW WA.

It's always nice to see a bit of whimsy from the military... almost encouraging really.

Usually it’s call signs like STLKR, or KILLR, or REAPR, or SKULL or stuff like that.

Full of the sound of the Gran Fury, signifying nothing.

The most interesting thing I had flying over me the other day was a Navy E-6B TACAMO, SHADO01, going from Patuxent to Dyess. Not sure why the Navy headed to Oklahoma, but whatever...

Those show up on the ADS-B pretty regularly. I guess the Navy and AF share fields for training regularly. I got these shots of a P-8 while at Dyess. He came through for some touch-and-gos and then was on his way. I also watched an EA-6B take off late one afternoon. It was one of the loudest jets I’ve ever heard.

I spent time at Travis AFB years ago as an Air Force reservists and they had a couple of these stationed there and I watched them come and go. Beautiful aeroplanes. They drag out a long wire behind them and fly in circles and form a helical cone.

They need to put Culture Minds in charge of their call signs.
