Morning Guys,
100% clag here today.
Situation as at 10.00Z:-
"MDRAS41" Voyager ZZ337 [43C6FA] is plotting over the Lake District at FL210 heading SE for duties over the North Sea........think this is the one out of Prestwick, so serial is correct.
"QID29" KC-135R 61-0267 [AE07AE] has departed Mildenhall for Rota(?) and is currently plotting over Biscay at FL350.
"RRR2208" Voyager ZZ338 [43C6FB] has departed Brize Norton Southbound and is currently plotting over the middle of France at FL410.
"EDDIE97" KC-135R 63-7993 [AE037A] is back again in the "Refueler" track plying its trade with LN F-15s.
Dutch F-16s are due to return to Leeuwarden/Volkel from Lajes (Azores) this afternoon according to a NOTAM - ALTRV ends at GAPLI (50N08W) but don't know their routing from there.
