Yeah, I really misread that. Must have been tired or something.
And, I would assume that they don't talk to Lincoln there as they are not within their airspace, just announce on the local CTAF.
Weird. I've never noticed that detail. I don't know why they have 128.75 listed. I've been flying jumpers at that dropzone for three years now and I've never used 128.75 for anything, so that gives you an idea of how important it is.
Of course, I don't think we've dropped anyone between midnight and 5:30 a.m. in at least five years, probably longer.
And we announce "jumpers away" on both Lincoln Approach as well as Crete's CTAF.
