No contrails from the BBMF, but overflying from my perspective.

TWO B-2's over my house in 2014, to say I was chuffed is an extreme understatement!

This C17 was flying along on it's own from NAVPI to Marham, then the 2 F15's who were much lower heading back to Lakenheath, decided to go for it and catch up the C17
which you can see, they did successfully - Don't you just love those Reapers :clap:
