Hi, I had a very brief listen to my scanner coming home from work. I got lakenheath on 344.825 (and 263.175). I have been on milscanners to find out what i was listenning to but could someone tell me what SOF and RAMROD means in usage please?

i have done a search but with no luck.

cheers

Location : various

SoF - Safety of Flight. Officer and department with executive responsibility for all safety aspects of the flight. ie. runway, aircraft, maintainance etc.
RAMROD - callword for duty SoF at Lakenheath

Pilots will contact RAMROD with any problems that they find with their aircraft. Less commonly if they saw debris on the runway at the Heath (though normally they'd just ask the current controller to make RAMROD aware)
