Swarming United B757's

[SpringHeeledJack]

As I do from time to time, whilst looking at one of the spotter's SBS sites, I noticed that there was a plethora of United Airlines 757's leaving disparate cities in Europe and seemingly meeting up just west of Ireland all heading out over the Atlantic to New York (JFK). I realise that co-ordinating of flights into a hub happens, but was just suprised at how many there were this morning (10 or so) and how close they all were to each other, I've never seen such a gaggle of same airline aircraft before. At least they can swap company gossip over the HF and be on the same page

HF, not a hope, that isnt a pleasurable experience, I guess that they will all use the Air-to-Air frequency of 121.5

I think you are talking about the former Continental flights, in which case they are going into EWR. (But if I'm wrong, I apologise)

We usually are in a race to beat each other to customs, then onto our commute flights or the first bus to the parking lot

Not HF. 123.45
