One of the rarest visitors to grace Waddingtons runway in many a year is this RSAF RE-3A. The delays to its departure turned out to be a blessing as when it did finally go. the light could not have been better. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51542706521_b06a842382_b.jpg RE-3A 1901 RAF Waddingto...

Pease is regularly used as a stop off point for fuel etc prior to going transatlantic. It may not have received its cargo at Pease.

Google is amazing

It’s the AN/ASQ-236 Synthetic Aperture Radar Pod or Dragons Eye.

Nice shots Dave, they look similar to mine. It was me (the Scottish fellow) who was chatting with you most of the morning. Nice to meet you and thanks for the company. Well worth the drive out and a great first visit for you.

Perfect weather for todays movements. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49666943276_ba3a9b1502_o.jpg B-2A 82-1068 RAF Fairford WM by Kevin Bell , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49666943171_4e3f27bd44_o.jpg U-2S 80-1071 RAF Fairford 1 WM by Kevin Bell , on Flickr https://live.staticf...

A selection from a cold but sunny Mildenhall on the 6th of February. The Turkish C-130 tail art was particularly nice to see. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49502666806_4ca155b7d5_o.jpg C-17A 01-0191 RAF Mildenhall 2 WM by Kevin Bell , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49502887602_8...

Images circulating on Twitter of the burnt out remains of a USAF E-11A in Afghanistan. No clue as to the cause. Hopefully the crew are ok.

That is sad news. A genuinely nice guy. Rest in peace.

Both C-17s have departed Aviano and are heading southeast going by ADSB.

Dinger

Perfect. Many thanks for the feedback.

Dinger

Many thanks. Is it in a position to get a photograph or is it masked by the other C-5. I may get a chance to swing past in the morning and if it’s positioned ok, that will influence my decision.

Can anyone advise where 86-0015 is parked? Is it by the B2 Hangars?

Noted arriving for a Gas & Go at Prestwick on 19/11/19 was this rare C-12J, 86-00082, 'CATS 65' all the way from Seongnam AB, Seoul.
