An early morning stop after Stansted.
Not much about, only 4 C.130s and the only visitor was the KC.10 that we saw land.

Next it was Lakenheath for the Aviano F.16s.
We went onto the warren and saw 9 lined up, but because of the light, could only read 7 (we came back later.)
Then we hung about for the first movements of the day- at 12.30 eight F.15s departed (4 ship and two 2 ships.)
But by now we were at the viewing area and the departures were off 06 so near-impossible to read. EDIT - on checking photos we were able to read these off.
Made 2 of my last 3 based Eagles (84-0046 and 00-3003) and 3 F.16s.

On the way back home we called past Lakenheath and Mildenhall again, hoping the light would now allow us to read off the F.16s
As we arrived at the viewing area, two 4 ships of F.15s landed- didn’t quite catch one of them.
Then it was back onto the warren- found an excellent shortcut to where we needed to go to see the F.16s. Saved about a mile walk each way!
Now there were only 7 F.16s outside but we could read them all off- 1 needed so a worthwhile stop.

The only thing at Mildenhall to note was the WC.135 that we hadn’t noticed in the morning. Not needed though.
