  • ARCP = Air Route Control Point: The frequency used by the ARTCC to control the location where the tanker and receiver rendezvous is completed prior to refueling. Tankers orbit at this point.


  • EXIT = The frequency used by the ARTCC for control of the designated point where the tanker and aircraft may depart the anchor area after refueling is complete.


Frequencies

  • The common secondary frequency for this area is 282.7 except AR20, which is 256.65
