Morning, all. Lovely sky down here in Wiltshire, but nothing to be seen!!
"RRR2320" Voyager ZZ335 [43C6F8] departed Brize Norton around 06.30 routing out over Dover.
"RCH337" KC-135R 62-3545 [AE0542] arrived at Mildenhall around 07.30. This is the one that shows up as (AMARG resident) C-5A 70-0449.
"QID32" KC-135R 63-8021 [AE0241] departed Mildenhall for Prestwick, transitting at FL190.
"RCH455" KC-135R 57-1440 [AE023B] is unable to get into Mildenhall because of the reduced RVR and is diverting to Ramstein. Has declared an IFE due fuel shortage (1 hour remaining) and has requested no conflicting traffic. Is currently NE of Brussels and descending through FL084 - on short finals to Brussels at 10.34 (Ramstein was under limits, too).
