Re: LAGR and QID callsigns

I believe it is for tanker flight going out to the eastern bloc to meet up with the 48th FW aircraft on TDY there, but I could be wrong.

You can also read a fair few off in the dark as the haze has gone and also there is a fair amount of lighting in the area, but you will stand out like a spare thumb to the local plod so take care.

Pair of Lynx Wildcats just passed Largs at 1038 heading south, possibly for Prestwick
MARINE13 & 14.

13 is plotting as ZZ152 (43C759), not sure on the other.
Or even ZZ512.

I wonder if the moderators could give a sticky for this deployment to contain all the info in as was done last year?
But this thread is not about the B-52s.
