Morning everyone,
Rather grey here today.
Situation at 10.10Z is:-
It would appear that some (if not all) of the remaining Oregon F-15Cs managed to depart at silly o'clock this morning accompanied by "GOLD91/92" (Mildenhall tankers)........see separate thread.
"CTM1276" A332 240/F-RARF [3B76AE] would appear to have gone Westbound over the country, now plotting over the Irish Republic.......apparently did a "missed approach" at Gatwick first (credit FC)
"CNV3941" C-130T 165161 [AE03E9] has just passed over Reading at FL250 heading for the South coast........EDIT:- This was actually 165160/JW..photographed at Aldergrove yesterday (credit FC)
"RCH949 KC-135R 59-1508 [AE07A8] and "RCH940" C-17A 06-6157 [AE145B] have both departed Mildenhall heading East
"MADRS51" Voyager ZZ337 [43C6FA] is over the North Sea on tanking duties.
Mildenhall based MC-130J 13-5778 [AE54D9] would appear to have departed Westbound to CONUS as "HONE11"
