Interesting information. I had to look up the Bell-X-16, don't think I've come across it before. Seems none were completed

Re: 277.625

252.875 has been used recently. There used to be a dedicated frequency but I don't think this is the case now

Re: God save the Queen.

Seems everyone on this forum is a Royalist. Just to maintain some kind of balance not everybody is fascinated by the Royal Family, I'm not and didn't see any of it.
