Well a nice little Half Hour at Prestwick today with all the comings and goings, the gem for me today was this C-12 en route to wisebaden ARGUS44, managed to
get a nice landing shot of Dyess Based C-130J which was one of 4 C-130Js that came through? that was after 5 C-130Hs that left this morning prior to night stopping, so
plenty of Hercs the last couple of days :thumb: And managed a static shot of a Charelston C-17 as well anyway Enjoy :D
Dougie :D

Great work again Dougie,the first shot of the RC-12 with the strobe on top of tail is very good, also the take off shots of the C-130J and close-ups of the RC-12.Nice light on the C-17.
Cheers.
