In flight refuelling

Post by edarter » Mon Aug 01, 2016 11:45 am

Hi,
How often does in flight refueling take place in the sw corridors? Heading to Cornwall soon and would like to catch them on the scanner and visual.

Thanks

Not very often perhaps a couple of times a month.

However, if you look out in about an hour there should be a pair of KC-135's and 4 A-10's heading down towards Lands End.
